The finale.
==================================================================
I am very proud of this podcast. I came up with the idea for my squad, which was the Actor’s Guild, after taking a class on Podcasts in the Classroom as a license renewal credit. I wrote up a script, and assigned roles to the different students. I have not listed their names online just to be safe, but I am very pleased with their efforts.
Setting the story of the podcast in Dalton Hill really helped make the podcast feel important to me. Dalton Hill is one of the books that I wroted, based on a short story that I wrote in college. I love the character of Lincoln Phillips and I was excited to include him in this podcast. I was also excited when the young student who voiced Lincoln joined the project. He was very talented and he leant a lot of credibility to the project for the rest of the Actor’s Guild.
I think what we accomplished here was awesome considering no one here was a professional and that we really only had around a half and hour a week to do it. I did use time outside the squad time to record some of the staff members who joined in on the podcast. I want to thank everyone who took their time to record something with me. You helped make this awesome.
I know the listeners are limited, but that does not limit my enthusiasm for this project or for what we were able to accomplish. I have an idea for a second podcast, though I do not know the status for squads next year at school. I hope that we can continue with this moving forward.
A huge thank you to those 8th grade students who contributed to the podcast, who will be moving on to high school next year. You all should be proud of what you helped do.
