Overall I would say that the podcasts worked well as a project with my personal experience leading to us choosing to do it. The definite highlights of the project were that we produced some very high-quality audio and each of the episodes in my mind is incredibly effective on the listener. At the same time as this, we also produced some of the best multiplatform content i have ever done through the creation of the videos and the website. If I was to nitpick, I would say that we could have done with more contributors for each of the podcasts especially the speech one as there aren’t as many voices within this one as the others and it shows. Furthermore, it would have been ideal to have spent more time on the scripting which would have allowed us to have better scripts, this is exemplified in the blindness episode where the script just feels as if there is more going on through how it has been structured. However, these are only minor things and overall I’m extremely proud of what we have produced.
In regards to the team I would say Molly put an awful lot of work into the project with her being near enough solely responsible for getting all of our interviews, however at times she did loose motivation as is natural and because of her job was unable to turn up to everything that we had tried to organise.
Towards the start of the project, I had question marks over what Chloe’s role would be as she wasn’t keen on talking to people thus meaning she wasn’t very useful at the start and this was demonstrated in her coming to every interview despite her never asking a question. However towards the end of the project she proved her own at organising the paperwork and doing the jobs no one else wanted to do such as transcribing etc
