Documentation:Podcasting Basics/Tips
- Find a quiet room with minimal ambient noise for recording sessions.
- Audio quality is much better when recording with external microphones.
- Plan your podcasts into segments to minimize errors and easier editing.
- Although a script is not required it is hugely beneficial. Alternatively, you can have a general outline of your podcast to keep yourself on track.
- Many people find 3 - 5 minute podcasts are the most effective.
Five questions to ask yourself before getting started
- What is my purpose, why am I making this podcast?
- Who is it for?
- Is the recording quality important or is the purpose to share an idea or concept?
- Do I have necessary permissions and copyright in place?
- Do I have all of the resources I need, or know where to find them?
