Planning checklist:
1. Choose a topic: Pick a subject that you're passionate about and that will
interest your target audience.
2. Define your target audience: Determine who your ideal listeners are, and tailor
your content to their interests and preferences.
4. Create a content plan: Outline your episodes, including topics, guests, and key
talking points.
4. Recording software: Choose a reliable software app for recording audio and
video, such as Descript, OBS Studio, or Zoom.
5. Editing software: Select a video editing software like Adobe Premiere Pro,
Final Cut Pro, or Descript for post-production.
During the recording, follow your content plan, speak clearly, and maintain eye contact
with the camera to create engaging and professional video podcast episodes.
Recording checklist:
1. Set up your recording space: Choose a quiet, well-lit location with minimal
background noise and distractions.
2. Test your equipment: Check your audio and video quality before recording.
3. Record your episode: Follow your content plan and record your podcast,
ensuring that you speak clearly and maintain eye contact with the camera.
Editing checklist:
1. Import your footage: Transfer your recorded files to your editing software.
2. Trim and arrange: Cut out any mistakes or unnecessary parts, and arrange
your clips in the desired order.
3. Add intro and outro: Create and insert an intro and outro to give your podcast
a professional touch.
4. Add music and sound effects: Enhance your podcast with background music
and sound effects, if desired.
5. Export your video: Save your edited video in a suitable format for your chosen
platform.
2. Upload your video: Follow the platform's guidelines to upload your video,
including adding a title, description, and tags.
3. Promote your podcast: Share your podcast episodes on social media, your
website, and through email marketing to reach a wider audience.
4. Repurpose content into small clips: TikTok and Instagram make perfect
places to post quotable moments or hooks that will pull in new listeners. And if
you’ve uploaded to YouTube, you can publish clips to YouTube shorts directly
from your full-length video.
