I finally completed my first Soundslides project: Scooter Culture on Campus. I this project I attempted to capture what life is like for students who use scooters as a main mode of transportation on and around campus. I tried to show a well-rouned picture of the pros and cons of using scooters. Although I had a lot of problems editing my audio in Audacity, I did my best. I also ran into problems with my photos for this project because most of them were over exposed. I had to go out and get more shots since the first ones were all taken in the morning or middle of the day around my class and work schedule. I learned that it is also wise to allow yourself time just in case you run into problems at the end of the production stage. Overall I know that timing, whether it’s the time of day you decide to shoot photos or the time you allow yourself to tie up loose ends of a work, can make or break a project.
