Coretta

There are few things as tiring and satisfying as what I’ve gotten to do at work the past few days. As you can imagine, we have been covering the Coretta Scott King funeral stuff a lot. I have been sent on assignments to record audio of the horse-drawn carriage procession taking her to the state capitol, and to record audio for the musical celebration the included performances by Gladys Knight and an address by Oprah Winfrey. I guess one of the things I am proud of this city for is that it is steeped in the MLK legacy. I have been to the King Center before, but these assignments allowed me to touch that world in a completely different way. Doing these the recording and putting together the consequent multimedia pieces has moved me tremendously, despite the long hours it has taken to put everything together. Anyway, ultimately I am so satisfied with the products and the experience. I have been moved to tears many times during all of it and have been completely emotionally wiped. If you would like to take a look at the pieces (on was mentioned previously) here are the links:
