Preparation That Reduces Post-Production Times

Preparation that reduces post-production times:

(remember the Boy Scout Motto? “Be Prepared!” And keep in mind – you don’t have to implement each and every one of these suggestions – use whatever makes sense for you and your show)

• Make sure your equipment is set up properly (mic, interface, etc.)
• Make sure your computer has been restarted and working properly
• Do the show as if it’s Live in one uninterrupted session (instead of stopping, starting again or taking breaks, because this will cause MUCH more editing later)
• Play intro music and sound clips Live (from a tablet or RØDECaster Pro, etc.)
• Use good mic technique
• Keep your energy up
• Research your guest a bit and list possible questions and talking points
• Gather all relevant links and notes, etc.
