#104 Transcribing

21 days left. I've used my time during the past week transcribing all the interviews I recorded using a tool called MacSpeech Dictate. It does a good job of converting the spoken word to text. It's a new program that uses the dictation software engine developed by the people who created Dragon Naturally Speaking, a PC only program. It took me a week, but I was able to do it during my hour plus commute. I still have to go back and review the text and correct any errors. The best part of all of this is that I'm reacquainting myself with the words of my interviewees and I've fallen back in love with my story and my film. I don't know where I went, but I'm back. So the next step is to subclip the footage based on topic and then I can use that to build my story.
