Kate from AudioBoo sent us out to interview anybody... this was a last minute second interview as we were heading back to the City campus





I might have chosen the quote "You never get a second chance to make a first impression" as the title of the piece and it might entice more people to listen. The title is your headline - make it grabbing, intriguing, mysterious - do whatever it takes!
When I use audioboo I like to just mention who I am, where I am, what's going on and get my interviewees to introduce themselves just so that the listener isn't dropped straight into a conversation... guide them in.
It's a great way to practice mini-live reports or interviews - pretend you're on air.. this is your report. It's a great skill to develop.
Watch for your mic technique - find out where the mic is on your phone and ensure you hold it close enough to quiet people and far enough away that it doesn't distort for loud people!
