41 minutes of recording, about the same in editing time.

Does the fact that it takes 40 minutes to edit like, 6 minutes of final product annoy anyone else? Am I just a really slow editor?

[curiously_me]

Oh, no, my Dear! I am in the exact same position on actual recording time vs. final run time. *hugs* You aren't a slow editor, sometimes it's just the nature of the beast, lol.

I think it depends on your method of recording... I'm trying out a new process where I pre-read the story 2x and then record and that seems to have cut down on this particular editing frustration. Of course, then the editing time is spent pre-reading, so. But, I have been more pleased with the final product since starting to pre-read.

Yikes, I went off on a bit of a tangent there. :O
Anyways, congrats on your 82 minutes of recording/editing. You rock! *\o/*

I usually read through about 5-6 times before I even try recording. I do pretty good, mistakes wise, but then there's all the ambient noises and throat clearing and junk I have to cut out. And the giggling. Allllllll the giggling.

[curiously_me]

Ooooh, giggling is it? I see, rofl. :D

And don't we (the podficcers) find ourselves giggling at the strangest moments, too? I know I do and when I'm editing it's like, "Wait, why was that funny?"

[lunchee]

you guys are fascinating!! I don't pre-read at all (I wrote a thing about this over at podficmeta, but I definitely see the use of it.
