So the past weekend I finally had the time to record the podcast I’ve been wanting to do for a while and had a couple of weeks to plan it and gather people to record it with. So I held the podcast over skype and recorded it.
I had a few problems initially, the program I used to record one on one skype calls did not work with a group call however I managed to find a suitable one and we began. Another problem I had, which I will fix for later podcasts, is that my voice (due to skype settings) was lower than my panels’ voices. So next time I will change my settings accordingly.
The topics we talked about were on the basis that this was an introductory pilot episode of the podcast, relating to anime. So we talked about our favourites in this culture in regards to anime, manga and video games and how that has affected our lives so far. We also tackled how this anime culture is slowly getting more accepted and integrated into ‘normal’ society. And finally we rounded off with talking about anime this season and our initial impressions over the first few episodes. In the end the podcast is roughly an hour and a bit long.
So I have the files here ready to be edited and I guess I’ve been lazy to edit them. I’ve decided I’ll upload it to youtube and soundcloud which I’ll do a post on when they are uploaded.
Overall, I am glad with how the podcast went and hope to continue this by a 6-8 week schedule, from which I upload a podcast every 6-8 weeks in which between the times I collect topics/material to talk about.
