What Does Feminism Mean To You?

"What does feminism mean to you?"

 

Blog Introduction

This blog is about one of the most mainstream topics of the century, Feminism. I decided to choose this topic because I am not only a female but one who aspires to work in a male dominated industry which is sports. However, I recognize the lack of equal access for women to enter the industry. I hope to empower other women to confidently pursue their goals regardless of the barriers that they may face. I felt it was only right to ask the males on this campus “what feminism means to them?” I was interested to hear and understand the male view on such an important and controversial issue that does not affect them personally. 

Breakdown of Sound and Music Choice 

Some ambient sounds were the wind when I was interviewing one of the students outside. The other background sounds were the primetime lunch period in Slane Student Center. You could hear the screeching of sneakers on the basketball courts and the clinking of weights being dropped in the gym. My choice of music would most definitely be a woman empowerment song. The first song that comes to mind is Girl on Fire by Alicia Keys.

My First Audio Editing Experience

This was my very first audio editing experience, it was not as complex as I originally thought it would be. I recorded the audio on my phone and was able to airdrop it to my personal computer. I then edited the 4 audio recordings on audition multitrack and then uploaded it to Soundcloud. I had a couple challenges on the way but overall the task was manageable.
