On my visit to see them, we discussed our family history and their lives. My mom recorded our discussions for posterity, but I wanted to turn the discussion into a podcast because it had interesting themes, and my family members have interesting character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bio<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">August is a high school senior at Freestyle Academy. She currently lives at home with her parents and dog, but will be attending UCLA next fall. She&#8217;s an Asian-American still finding her way in the world. August is constantly finding new things to love about her culture and family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Introduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I decided to do this podcast because it seemed like an exciting topic. Because I&#8217;m both Indian and Chinese, I&#8217;ve often felt caught between cultures. I wanted to explore my Chinese side more deeply, especially since our trip to China and Japan was canceled due to the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Uncle Tom was eager to be recorded. He enjoyed feeling like the main character and sharing his story, but the pressure to tell it &#8220;correctly&#8221; and meaningfully was overwhelming. Because of this, I formatted the story as a thesis instead of a narrative. Additionally, the time limit on the podcast was difficult to deal with. Fitting three hours of conversation into 8 minutes didn&#8217;t seem feasible, so I chose conversation that revolved around a very specific theme. It still went over the limit by a minute, but it wasn&#8217;t too dense, especially with the music break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The process of making this podcast digitally was somewhat taxing. Installing Pro Tools at home and cutting everything up to be fluid wasn&#8217;t fun. I also forgot to inform my parents about proper interview etiquette; they interrupted my grandparents with &#8220;mhm&#8221; between almost every sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"609\" data-id=\"557\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~AugustH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-2.48.53-PM-1024x609.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-557\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~AugustH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-2.48.53-PM-1024x609.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~AugustH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-2.48.53-PM-300x178.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~AugustH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-2.48.53-PM-768x457.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~AugustH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-2.48.53-PM-1536x914.png 1536w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~AugustH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-2.48.53-PM-2048x1218.png 2048w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~AugustH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-2.48.53-PM-1920x1142.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>The overall ProTools interface<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"751\" data-id=\"556\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~AugustH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-2.49.35-PM-1024x751.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~AugustH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-2.49.35-PM-1024x751.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~AugustH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-2.49.35-PM-300x220.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~AugustH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-2.49.35-PM-768x563.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~AugustH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-2.49.35-PM.png 1328w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Details in clipping and editing<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\">Creating the podcast on ProTools<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Podcast<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" allow=\"autoplay\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/1267276597&#038;color=%23575244&#038;auto_play=false&#038;hide_related=false&#038;show_comments=true&#038;show_user=true&#038;show_reposts=false&#038;show_teaser=true\"><\/iframe><div style=\"font-size: 10px; color: #cccccc;line-break: anywhere;word-break: normal;overflow: hidden;white-space: nowrap;text-overflow: ellipsis; font-family: Interstate,Lucida Grande,Lucida Sans Unicode,Lucida Sans,Garuda,Verdana,Tahoma,sans-serif;font-weight: 100;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/freestyle-academy\" title=\"Freestyle Academy\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" rel=\"noopener\">Freestyle Academy<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/freestyle-academy\/2022-podcast-by-augusth\" title=\"2022 Podcast By AugustH\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" rel=\"noopener\">2022 Podcast By AugustH<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reflection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall, this podcast was a great experience in learning more about my family. My mom continues to play the podcast for any family members she can find. It was definitely interesting to learn about how podcasts are made and to try to emulate them myself. I don&#8217;t consume a lot of podcasts, so it was challenging because I didn&#8217;t have a lot of experience with what a podcast should be. However, I do think I produced meaningful work I can be proud of.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About This podcast is about my granduncle and grandaunt who live in Michigan.
