Richard Wilson: recording a speech for later book work
Richard opened his investment-structure module by explaining that the recorded series would also supply material for a book.
One recording had a second use
He described a book project with a collaborator and said the Rainmaker Series would be transcribed for it. The speech was therefore part of his writing process as well as a presentation to the room.
The proposed workflow began with speaking
Richard encouraged listeners considering a book to record speeches and transcribe them. His example concerned creating source material through spoken explanations. The resulting transcript still contains the repetitions and verbal turns of a live talk.
In Richard C. Wilson's words
"give speeches, record it, transcribe it" (Richard C. Wilson, recorded Rainmaker Series module)
How to use this
- Preserve the recording alongside its transcription.
- Review spoken material before adapting it for a different format.
