So I reached my 100th podfic and I thought it would be a good idea to do some sort of retrospective.

There's this meme on deviantArt where you take one of your earlier drawings and draw it again and I thought it looked kind of interesting, so I stole it adapted it to podfic as best I could (the original drawing meme is here). I took my first podfic and repodded it, partly because I was curious, partly because I knew I could do better and I didn't feel like just editing the old one.

There was another version I did in November 2013, but that I gave up on because of technical issues. However it's still included in the audio sample.




This is how the three versions look like in order:


It's weird seeing the difference between the three waveforms.
First of all, you can see how my pacing has changed - the new version is ~5min longer than the first. I also seem to have settled on a much lower volume (not sure if that's a good thing though). They're also recorded with different microphones (the first one on the ednet desktop mic that served me well for over a year for podfic and another three before that; the second on a poorly treated AKG D44S and the final one on the Samsun Go Mic I got last Christmas)

About a week ago, I asked on Twitter if anyone has any suggestions about what I should record as my 50th podfic, because I wanted to try something I hadn't done before. So, the lovely [personal profile] reena_jenkins threw a bunch of SGA fics my way that I would probably never would have found on my own. I thought it was going to be hard to chose one, but the premise for City on the Edge of Forever just screamed 'Pick me! Pick me!' the moment I clicked on the link. (Let's ignore the fact that I almost ended up doing an Mpreg CLex fic because it was her first suggestion and because it definitely wasn't something I had done before)
