creativity,creativity, this has become the order of the day,but to this particular one, i say congrats! 'Lawyer', it is known as. It is an initiative where there is a person asking questions to a supposed accused person where, the accused is not suposed to answer the questions asked but his lawyer i.e. the person on his left hand side.this icebreaker was both intresting and educative in the sense that i learnt the importance of keeness and following instructions.Every now and then people would get confused and answer questions they wwere not supposed to. Wow!i thought.
well,well, well,step by step. The day's lesson was supposed to be on turntables and compact discs. A the studio i learnt parts of the turntable, their funtions and how the machine works.I love the way the DJs do it but with this ?!no way! I thought it looked quite oldfashioned,and in deed it is.I learnt that the major difference between those of today and the ancient ones is that the modern ones are a bit smaller and do not use a big CDs as those used in the ancient ones.
Then to recording.Oh my!it's just impossible.How is one supposed to edit their work from a reel to reel tape? To my amazement, Mrs.Kowoour says they did it!Can you belive that? Unlike today when we only cut, boost, paste, undo,redo, and excetra on the computer, they had to literally cut and paste! and trust me, they made it. This got me thinking, if they did, why not me?
Surprisingly Sharon, the reel-to-reel producers made fewer mistakes than we do today. They produced radio formats e.g. dramas, features, magazine programmes etc that requires more editing.
ReplyDeleteThe digital era producers are now content with phone-ins and talks show that require minimal editing. So, how do you interpret the laxity?
