Clients Providing Timestamps for Edits

If you’re editing someone else’s podcast episodes, at least part of your job is to remove umms, lipsmacks, and shorten long periods of silence, etc. Of course your client doesn’t need to point out every single umm and lipsmack, etc., because you can hear and see them yourself.

But when it comes to removing sections of the actual discussion, you may want to require your clients to provide timestamps for editing out specific parts of the conversation. For instance, “Cut out from 7:38 to 7:52,” etc.

This way you never run the risk of removing audio that your client actually wants in the episode.
