Introduction to Podcasting

In this hands-on workshop, participants will clarify exactly what a Podcast is, how it is different from and similar to radio and other audio media, and consider how to get started in Podcasting. No prior experience or special equipment is necessary. Participants will engage in group discussion and individual hands-on interviewing and recording activities to become familiar with the basics of producing audio content with readily accessible equipment (smartphones, computers, etc.) and will be given opportunities to use specialized equipment (condenser mics, mixing board, monitoring headphones, etc.). At the end of the workshop, participants should be able to link a project idea to a podcast plan, have the basic skills to do preliminary recording, and should have the ability to distribute their first basic podcast.

Attendees must register through InVIU.
