Project Scope Number of individual students required: 4 students We are looking for students with excellent audio/podcast editing skills.

Aaron interviews renowned experts on life-changing events such as climbing Mount Everest to performing at Wembley Stadium. He dives into how guests built their careers in the entertainment world and what it takes to succeed in business and life. We are currently developing podcasts for clients to distribute to Audible, Spotify, etc., and will involve students in all aspects of the creative process. Students will be provided the raw audio files of the host and guest's side of the conversation. These files will need to be edited to remove unnecessary noise, flow of conversation, and enhance heightened listener engagement. Musical bed tracks will be provided along with intro's and outro's for each episode. Students will receive clear instruction on the podcast format and how to execute the work. Edited files will need to be converted into mastered tracks for upload to the podcast distribution network. Each episodes is up to an hour in length. Besides editing, the student will be required to write blog posts and notes to go with each episode. There is a lot of room for creativity and input. You will work closely with our team and receive lots of support. If you are ready to tackle this challenge with us, then we'd love to hear from you. Editing skills and publishing knowledge is a plus.
