I have attached my draft audio story. I decided have a more pathos- esque appeal. So I have recorded myself giving a brief description of my heart behind the triathlon.

Then as I list the events, I added some sound effects of the actual disciplines. I recorded the swimming noise on my IPhone and the subtle running noise as well. The cycling noise is a royalty free sound effect, and available under a Creative Commons license.

To really spice it up more, I used this dramatic melancholy song, that is also available through Creative Commons License. I feel as if it added a nice mood, I guess you could say.

On the actual mix, I kept it pretty simple. I overlapped most of the secondary track and changed the volume so it wouldn’t disrupt me speaking.

But as far as anything else, it was fairly simple. I would like to add more time and content to it for my final draft. I also have this huge idea, because of my obsession with This American Life and Ira Glass.

I would like to maybe record myself doing a dry run of the events and play it the background and make it feel as if the event is happening in real time. Like with a crowd cheering and a starter pistol. All that sounds like that would be a good background noise, so it doesn’t seem like I was talking into my Iphone in my car.

So we will see how that turns out, it might to ambitious of an idea.
