Introduction to Podcasting

Introduction to Podcasting – a Journalism.co.uk workshop

Introduction to Podcasting is a 2-days online workshop, that focuses on the skills required to create short radio packages or podcasts.

Podcasts and online audio are at the heart of the business of digital media. With audiences flocking to the medium in record numbers and radio listening on connected devices at an all-time high, there’s never been a better time to learn about and create audio.

Attendees will learn how to tailor content for a specific audience, then record, edit and publish it online. They will gain skills in interviewing, script writing and delivery, and the use of music and sound effects. Participants will leave equipped with both editorial and technical knowledge to support their work in creating audio packages and podcasts.
