In terms of actually narrating my podcast at the Farmer’s Market, I felt a little awkward walking around talking to my recorder at first.  However, the beauty of that particular Market is that everyone is talking, interacting and listening to the music that it was easy to shrug off the self-consciousness and get in the flow of what I was trying to describe.  However, one of the things that I noticed when I came back and started editing my podcast was that there was a lot of background noise because it was so windy.  Learning how to fade out the background noise and introduce a song in order to obscure some of the interference was the hardest part of this project for me personally.

I actually really enjoyed working on this project because I have never actually made a podcast before.  Furthermore, writing the essay first and then going out to the Farmer’s Market after gave me another insight into the workings of the Market itself as it went on around me.
