Make a Podcast

Discussion


Do you listen to any cool podcasts? What are they about? What makes them great to listen to?

What kinds of topics are covered?

Are there any topics you're interested in that aren't covered much in podcasts or in the media?

Do you like podcasts that scripted or more informal and chatty?

What makes a good podcast host?

Who would you like to interview for a podcast?

Have you ever listened to a podcast about podcasts?

other ideas...


You can work on your own or in pairs


Think about the topic or issue you'd like to explore in your podcast. What would be the best approach to take? What style might suit it?




Make your podcast longer then five mins, up to 25 mins.


If you're you're doing  podcast episode every day you could make each one four mins long?


If you want to you can use Podcastle or find podcast editing tools here


At the week's end we'll all share what we've created,



Planning your podcast



Who is your audience? 

Why might they be interested in the topic?

How should you speak to them?

What might their expectations of the podcast be? Is there any way you can exceed these expectations?



What are the obvious ways to discuss this issue or topic? Sometimes obvious is best! Or is the peculiar and novel angle or approach you can take?


Location - where will you record the podcast? Why?


A trip to Devonport
