have you ever wondered what it’s like to be behind the scenes of a podcast? well, if you have, today’s your day, because i’m going to bе discussing the ins and outs of what makes oscar takes on comе to life
first, let’s talk about how i record. recording requires concentration and sound isolation. i sit inside of my bedroom closet, and the reason i record all of my episodes inside here is because all the clothes in the closet absorb the sound, and it’s not so echoey when i speak. i attach a microphone to an ipad and place it on the floor and i start to record!
i record with the built~in voice memos app that comes on all ios devices. i record the intro, episode, and outro individually, since i have music in between all of these segments
then comes editing, a crucial aspect of putting together a podcast. i edit in an app called garageband, and this is one of those apps comes on every ios device. on garageband, i import the three recordings that i did, and i put them in order: intro, episode, and outro. then, i insert the intro & outro music for my podcast, and i can also cut out certain parts of the recording, too
this entire process of recording and editing usually takes an hour and a half or two hours, depending on how long of an episode i’ve written and recorded
when i’m done recording and editing, i then upload the audio file to an app called anchor. this app is how my episodes are syndicated to a wide variety of platforms such as apple podcasts, spotify, amazon music. once i upload the file, i give the episode a title, description, and i pick a time for the episode to be released to the public
now, it’s time to get the word out. i like to create an video animation with the episode title, and below that it there’s text that says “out now”. i also like to have the episode playing in the background of the video, so that people can get a little preview of the episode
the day before my episode comes out, i like to create a little website page with the links to listen to my episode on all different platforms. when an episode comes out, i put that link that i created everywhere, and if people would like to listen to the new episode on youtube, they cl!ck the youtube b~tton, if they want to listen on spotify, they cl!ck spotify. so those are a few ways that i promote new episodes
that explains the technical side of my podcast, but there’s also a creative side to explore. when i was planning my podcast in the early days, i was wondering how i would come up with enough topics to make a few seasons. my parents told me that my life is always good material. for example, i’ve talked about several things in many different episodes. in “writing,” i read a short story that i wrote. in “lefty,” i discuss life as a left~handed person. so, many episodes that i make are about my life
for all my episodes, i have to do at least a tiny bit of research. in my episode titled “word fun,” i had to do a whole bunch of research to figure out how dictionary editors pick up new words, and put them into the dictionary. once i do a little research, i try to take some of the information that i’ve acquired from what i’ve read, or listened to, and try to put it into my own words. this is called background information
it takes a very long time just to make a seven minute, complete episode. the whole process of researching, writing, brainstorming, recording, and editing ends up taking so much more time than the entire length of the published episode. usually the whole process of working on the episode takes at least a week. good writing takes discipline. speaking well takes practice. something that looks good on the page may not sound good when spoken out loud. i’m always tweaking things here and there to make everything go smoothly. the better the preparation, the easier the delivery of the material. so as you can tell, it’s pretty complex to create just an episode that’s a few minutes, since a lot is happening behind the scenes
when i start working on new material,i think of each podcast episode as a skeleton—every part of the episode must be organized from scratch. so when i come up with ideas, i’m putting together the bones of the skeleton. you have to put the bones together in a cohesive way, in a way that makes sense. then you flesh it out. you add muscle to the frame, just enough so that it all cl!cks, it all works well together. then you edit the script. that’s the last phase, like putting on the skin on it. once that’s done, the episode has a full body. then comes rehearsal. it’s extremely important to read over the episode a few times before the official recording so that when you record it, you’re not stumbling on any words in the episode. practice makes perfect. this is true of any art form
there you have it. you’ve gotten an exclusive behind~the~scenes of oscar takes on. now you know just how much effort it takes for something to look effortless
