Rhetorical Inspiration

The second Action Project of Journalism was to create a podcast of  a voice that represented the 21st century/was a voice that was recognizable by everyone who was a part of it. The obvious choice for me was Barrack Obama because almost everyone I talk to has an opinion of him/his voice and he has inspired many to pursue learning the power of rhetoric. I interviewed two people, Riley Florsheim and Jacob lending, about the inspiration and the effect he has had on them. They both agreed that because of him they have pursued learning about speech and rhetoric because they understand the influence a person can have if they are an amazing rhetorician. The hardest part of this project for me was actually creating the sound because my experience in sound editing is minimal and the experience I do have is in a program that I do not own. This made me need to learn a whole new program.
