Once you have chosen your topic, itβs time to move towards the practical workings of the podcast: planning and recording. πΌ Writing down some notes, making a few bullet points or even a detailed plan with scripted fragments of your podcast (if you feel like this is what you need) can be very useful tools to stay on the chosen track and avoid going too off-topic. To begin with the recording, you donβt need any professional equipment: a microphone π€ and a simple sound editing software π» will do the job. πlightbulb_outlineWhat are our top tips? π
β Focus on the sound quality π§: make sure you are in a quiet place and there is no echo in the room (unless you want to make use of the sounds surrounding you, it could be an idea for a creative podcast about staying efficient in a noisy work environment).
β Try to speak slightly slower than usual and to articulate clearly π£: recording can influence the clarity of your speech and you want to be sure that your audience understand you well.
β Record your podcast in segments β: this way you wonβt have to re-record big chunks of speech of you make a mistake or struggle with cutting it and editing.
