Review of "Teacher Crush Vox"

Polished and well-produced, this lighthearted piece about students' crushes on teachers is sure to bring a smile to its listeners. The ambiance of a lively classroom (or is it the cafeteria, or a hallway?) helps to link the different interviews together, and provides color and a sense of location. The editing and sound mixing is especially well done. Stay tuned for a surprisingly effective intercutting transition between interviews at around 00:28. Fergie's "Clumsy" provides a bouncy, playful soundtrack. As the description notes, this piece would be quite appropriate to air on this year's National Teacher Day on May 5th.

Review of "Teacher Crush Vox"

Fun piece! It's easily relatable - after all, who hasn't ever had a crush on a teacher? - and flows smoothly from question to question. An upbeat song excellently faded in and out makes for a lively listen. Unfortunately, the section of interwoven clips at :27 went by too quickly for me to comprehend until I had listened to it multiple times. One or two clips are spaced too closely to each other and there are a small number of level discrepancies, but overall, the producer(s) did a great job working with and around the high school ambience noise. "Teacher Crush Vox" definitely entertains with humorous responses from a variety of high school students.
