SkillsUSA 2024
Every year, high school and college students gather together to compete in skilled trade competitions. Together Logan Archibald and I worked together and won our regional, state, and finally national gold medals for Audio & Radio Production.
I couldn't have done this project on my own. Go and check out the incredible person who was my competition partner for NSLC 2024, Logan Archibald.
What I Did
Our challenge for the national competition was to write and record a 2-minute news editorial about skilled trade education versus traditional universities while also producing a 60-second and 30-second commercial for various sponsors of the competition. During the national competition, my job was to gather soundbites from people on the street, help craft a story
around what they said, and then edit and mix it into a compelling news editorial. I focused on editing the audio, music, and sound effects, while Logan focused on research, writing, and sourcing music and sound effects with the proper licenses.
