Since I’ve had a few people reach to ask how to create a video podcast, I thought I would share that on this week’s episode. Turning an audio podcast into a video is one way to repurpose content and make it shareable on more platforms.

Here are a few tips I’ll be sharing on this show…

  1. Reasons you may want to create a video podcast
  2. Ways to record video
  3. The process (start-to-finish) of creating a video podcast for distribution on important platforms

Reasons to create a video podcast

Creating a podcast can be a fun venture, and there are many steps to think about when it’s just audio. How about when you add video to the mix?

Although adding video makes things a bit more complicated (when it comes to editing), video podcasts have a lot of benefits and add to the user experience. Here are a few reasons to create video podcasts:

A few reasons you might create a video podcast are:

  • you’re already doing the work, so why not?
  • video exposes you to a wider audience (YouTube)
  • video gives sociability and is more engaging

How to record your video

Recording your video doesn’t have to be a great feat. It’s as simple as using your phone to record yourself talking or hopping on a Zoom call. Here are a few different methods for recording video:

  • in-studio recording
  • remote interviews
  • B-roll recording
  • static image recording

I explain a bit more in detail on this video about what each of these mean. Now, on to the steps you’ll need to record:

  • capture the recording
  • edit the video
  • design a thumbnail image
  • import the video into YouTube

Distribute your podcast

Lastly, you’ll want to distribute your show. Hopefully, at the beginning steps of your podcasting journey, you’ve set up your RSS feed with a podcast host you trust to distribute to all the right places. This step is already done for you in that case, but one thing to check into for video podcasts is Podbean, which specializes in both audio and video podcasts.
