FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
A lot of thought has gone into how to price out what I can do? I feel that creating a program specifically for a serviceman, and their buddies in the desert on the other side of the world is a priceless thing; likewise the infinite value of playing the sound of your grandfather's voice, laughing and telling about himself, and listening with your children is beyond putting a dollar sign on. I must take into account what it will take, but I'm not going to gouge you for doing it. Understand that, beyond a basic recording and the time it took, there is likely three or four times that length of time working on editing and enhancing the original.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Every recording experience and editing experience is different, and have different needs and approaches. I am investigating new software possibilities and engineering techniques.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I first got a passion for radio back in then 80's when I ran the mail room for The Columbia School of Broadcasting for 6 1/2 years. I had the blessing of working with and alongside several working radio broadcasters. Since 2006 I have been a member of a non-profit web radio station, and learned how to make a professional broadcast, record the show and enhance the original for uploading to pod cast. I am now assisting in the production of four shows on the station, and assisting a couple of other members with their engineering on their show. I also help in the training of new members.
