Record somebody telling a story
Keep a voice, and the story it is telling, before it goes.
Every phone has a voice recorder built into it. It needs no signal, and an hour of talking takes less room than a handful of photographs.
Ask first, set the phone down between you, and let it run.
Key points
- Every phone has a recorder, and an hour of talk takes very little room
- Ask first, set the phone between you, and let it run through the pauses
What to remember
- Leave it running through the pauses.
- Silence costs nothing. Interrupting costs the story.
Try this
Open the recorder on your own phone and record thirty seconds of yourself. Play it back to learn where the phone should sit.
