[3] An Explosive Story from Comic-Con

from My Five Minutes - Short Thoughts on Creativity and Culture

This episode I recount a story from Comic-Con which was an impactful moment that has stayed with me to this day. Yes, this episode of My Five Minutes is ten minutes long. I imagine that had I called it My Ten Minutes the would be much shorter, or longer, or whatever. The story is the story and it takes however long it takes.I am going to admit that, from a production standpoint, this one was another step backwards for me. Much like my previous decision to record in my car, this time I decided to record in my back yard and it turned out, not well. There was all kinds of road noise and wind that I tried my best to eliminate and I had the gain on the mic turned up so loud that every breath I took sounded like I was broadcasting from a hurricane.Why didn't I just start over? Because the story itself is difficult to tell. Doing it again would have been a technical improvement, but I am not sure I would have had the energy to recount the incident as well as I did in the take that you are listening or watching.And if you are watching the video version of this, yes I do have a face made for radio and yes I did leave the autofocus turned on.Long story short, the story is worth listening to, I will get better at this and lastly thanks for your time and support.
