Audio
Overall I am happy with the way that the audio turned out.
Music
I ended up sourcing my music licenses from Artlist.io (https://artlist.io) as I agree with their business practices and prefer the layout of their site over other music licensing websites like Epidemic. I also preferred the flat rate cost over other websites like Music bed.
I chose acoustic music as this effectively slowed down the pace of the piece. Later in the piece I used more electronic music to reinforce the theme of technology.
Voice
I ended up rerecording most of the voice overs with cleaner and easier to understand dialogue. After the first cuts I was better able to coach my presenter in the type of delivery I was looking for.
When recording audio I used 2 channels with one quieter and the other louder so that in post if one peaked I could copy the quieter channel and apply gain. This helped immensely when it came time to edit my footage. I also tried using both a compressor and an equalizer. However I didn't like the sound of the compressor. The equalizer was useful for isolating and then muting a frequency (such as a fan).
If I had more time and access to it: I would have liked to have learnt how to use Abode Audition as this would have helped me to remove any residual hissing sounds etc.
