For our oral history interview, Lindsay and I decided to use sound cloud. You can record from your phone, IPad, or computer. I downloaded it on all three devices and tried it out before we conducted the interview. Sound cloud is a very easy program to use. It is very user friendly.
We got to our interviewee’s house. We talk to Stephanie Lasch and explain our project to her. She was very excited about our topic because this was something she is very patient about. The interview started and everything was going well. Stephanie is a fast talker and we saw that we were running short on questions so we decided to add dummy questions in to slow her down. She was really a cool person to interview. She knew how long our interview had to be so she would keep looking at the time and made sure she gave extra examples or interesting facts to fill up some of the time. Stephanie was a very useful resource and said if we need any help later on this topic to not hesitate to call her.
Something that happened after the interview that was not funny at the time but is now funny that we have it saved in every place possible. After the interview was complete sound cloud has two options upload now or save for later. I pushed upload now and forgot I was not connected to the internet. My face got really hot and I was so nervous that we were going to have to do the whole interview again. I would have hated to waste anymore of Stephanie’s time. And just when we thought we had to do the whole thing again because I thought it was lost forever, it popped up. Thank God. I was so glad that we did not have to do the interview again, because I felt it was so good the first time.
After that little glitch everything else went smooth. It was a very easy process to upload it to weebly. Lindsay and I did the prologue and afterlogue in class. It’s an easier task to write when you can bounce ideas and sentences off of each other to make sure they sound good. I’m very thankful that we found Stephanie Lasch and that she helped us out.
