Heres a little SionPhoto podcast experiment...it's the audio from an video interview with Tony Benn I shot a while ago for the MWAW film.
Very little of the interview was shown in the eventual video, so this makes use of the additional footage in another context (its also marginally easier to edit just the audio). Having stuff which can be repurposed via several outlets, is something that freelances should be thinking about, as media begins to converge.
Obviously it's something which can't be done with conventional digital stills cameras. Some people are using sound recorders with digital stills cameras, but its really only a matter of time I think, until the practical advantages of having one machine which captures multiple media (stills, video and sound) begins to outweigh having a device which only does one thing (however great that one thing is), or having to carry around multiple devices.
Multi-use devices and strategies are still in their infancy, but present trends suggest that will change, and much sooner than we all think.
Anyway, enough blah, here's the podcast. Some of the sound is a bit ropey, due to me having to create voiceover narration without having a decent microphone to hand, but you'll get the basic idea...
