For the last four days I’ve been in Toronto conducting interviews with leading associations and figureheads in both the music and copyright worlds. I’m almost done: just one last live interview; a few phone interviews; and the editing process will start. It’s been a long journey, and its finally coming to a close.
Unfortunately, there’s been major issues with the footage. The audio, which was captured by a lapelle microphone, was noise-ridden. Initial review of the footage with the camera’s built-in speakers failed to reveal this – but it became clear when I loaded the footage to my main workstation. To top it off: the backup recording unit crashed, deleting the backup audio I was recording in case just such an event would happen.
Crickey. The good news though is that the noise can be cut-out during the editing process for the most part.
