Day 1, Track 2

[cantarina]

Please leave your day's total minute count in a new thread. Remember that just about every phase of work on a podfic project counts, whether you're rereading, doing pronunciation research, recording, or editing.

Feel free to tell us what you're working on, why it's going well (or not!), to leave links to snippets or finished products, and to reply to each other's comments.

Good luck to everyone over the next month! Go go go podficcers!

Project: The Taste of Honey the Hum of Bees by Salieri
Total minutes: 15 doing editing
Comments: This is my first long podfic it's already over an hour and I'm only up to the Daniel/Sha're scene. My main concern now is that there is a very audible change from my first reading session to my second and I will need to do at least two more reading sessions to finish the story. I'm not really sure how to fix this so that it isn't so jarring. On the plus side I really, really love this story so the endless repetition required during editing has actually made me smile on more than one occasion as I come across my favourite lines.

New SG-1 podfic on the way, my heart! You've just made my day that much better :D

Is there anything you can do to better control your sound environment when you sit down to record the last two parts? Try to make sure your set-up is as close how you had it the last time? Or maybe do more recording all in one go to cut down on the number of sessions?

I love hearing stories about people who are enjoying the editing process :) No matter how much I love a story, that's always the most onerous part of the process for me.

[clairshadows]

I'm glad I made your day :) I'll do my best to recreate the same environment, but 40 minutes does seem to be my limit in terms of recording sessions after that I start having to repeat lines 6 or 7 times to get them right.

total minutes: 3 hours, give or take? (one recording, then another two editing)

Currently working on recording pendrecarc's Boston Marriage (one hour down, six and a half more to go!) and editing a bunch of shorter Vorkosigan audiofics.

30 minutes! (will be recording the dialogue for a podfic, so am in the process of making scripts for all of the characters /o\)

[cantarina]

That's an awesome minute count for one day! Congratulations :D

[cantarina]

So someone else is narrating? Oh collabs <3 I think that they're my favourite kind of podfic to make.

[aphelant]

Yes! Penny is narrating! Or really, has narrated, but I am slow and I've already tried recording the dialogue twice without great success (I lose some of the character voices because I am switching too fast) so she is still waiting on me for it to be finished. :/ But hopefully the script thing will work! \o/

[cantarina]

I didn't time in consistently, but I'd say it was about 90 minutes of editing \o/
