process notes

• Where are you in your soundwriting process?

1. What’s been done and what’s still left to do?

I am all done, we have now written a script, recorded, and edited it. Now all we have left to do is turn it in.

• What are your biggest accomplishments and failures so far?

1. How do you feel about that?

The biggest accomplishment I think was just getting to be in the radio station and being in front of the mic. It was such a cool experience and opened my eyes a bit more to what I may want as a career. A failure would be that it took us a while to get rolling on our script but once we got to work it became easier.

• What have you learned so far?

I have learned that I enjoy being in front of the mic and just talking about art with my friend. I also learned that there is a difference between poetry and music.

• What ideas did you grapple with?

1. Which problems have you solved, and which are you continuing to grapple with?

The problems we were faced with was time. We really had to push ourselves to talk about our topic for so long without getting side tracked or making it sound too scripted.

1. How might you overcome the challenges and struggles?

We overcame these by keeping each other accountable to stay on track but be loose.

1. What do you need to do, know, and write?

We are all done with the composing process!

• Walk through the four elements of the rhetorical situation:

1. How are you feeling about your progress toward achieving your purpose?

I think we achieved the purpose the best we could and it came out great.

1. How are you feeling about your progress toward affecting your audience?

I think that the audience will like our show and hopefully learn something new.

1. How are you feeling about your progress toward situating your work in time and place of your context?

It was a smooth process.

1. How are you feeling about your progress toward following the expectations of your genre?

This was nerve racking because we felt like we really wanted to explain some things but also stay on track but it ended up being great.
