Podcast Recording Instructions

Thanks so much for agreeing to join us on the Podcast!

We aim to enable leaders in any industry or community to lead sustainable and lasting change.
Below are a few details to help you prepare. If you have any questions, please email Michael.Proctor@onecollective.org.

GENERAL DETAILS

  • This is a "live recording," - meaning we're trying to record in one "take" - but we are able to edit things out before we publish, so don't worry about making mistakes.

  • We are recording using a program that records your audio and video file locally on your computer - then sends it to us automatically over the internet when we’re finished. So don’t worry if you have slow internet.

  • The conversation will be between 30-50 minutes long

THINGS YOU NEED TO RECORD

  • A computer (Excluding Chrome books) with good internet access or a mobile device with the Riverside.fm app installed.

  • A pair of headphones — this is essential. (if you have the white plug-in kind from Apple, those work great - wireless aren't usually as helpful, but work alright in a pinch)

  • Optional - A plug-in microphone (not necessary, but some people have one)

  • Here is a quick video on how to best prepare your computer and space for recording:
