This Podcast is for the insomniacs or just anyone having a hard night of trying to sleep. Grab your warm milk and let Belle and Christa keep you company.
About Belle. Belle is a 5 foot 11 teenage adult that goes to Mountain View High and is a Design student that has a hard time falling asleep like a lot of other people. Her favorite movies include Donnie Darko and any Tim Burton movie (almost any). I’ve always been interested in art but have been in a major art block lately but being in Freestyle academy has really helped escape that.
Writing/ producing a podcast just about anything is so freeing. You get to talk about almost anything you want. We’re doing the podcast project to learn about new things and if it’s something we’re interested in we might want to pursue it. Some goals were to learn how to express myself in this new medium and have fun while doing it.
Christa and I were inspired by the special on Adult Swim called Joe Pera talks you to sleep. There’s many episodes showing different things but the main goal is to get you relaxed and sleeping and that’s what we were trying to achieve with our podcast.
What I took away from this project is that creating a script is much harder than recording in my opinion. Because you want to be making a base for all the things you want to be saying and not leave anything out. That is what took us the longest. What I’d suggest to first time podcasters is to set aside a lot of time to write down the script and to get comfortable with it. I really valued working with one of my good friends on this project because it was someone I was comfortable with so I could really be myself.
