What we do
What does video podcast production include?
As many cameras as the show needs
A wide of the table and a close-up of each person, so the edit can cut from face to face without a jump. Two cameras are ours; more are rented and added to the quote when the show needs them.
Sound for every voice
A microphone for each person and headphones on everyone, with levels set before you start.
Lighting and the set
Soft light on the faces and a background designed for your show, so every episode has the same look.
A pop-up set when there's no studio
We bring the set to your office, record, and pack it all away so the room is ready for work the next day. That's how all 13 episodes of The Human Show were made.
Edited full episodes
Each conversation cut from all the cameras, with on-screen graphics where they help the story.
Short clips for social media
Vertical clips with captions from each episode, ready to post.
Live streaming
Stream the episode live while we record it.
Monthly recording
A regular recording day every month, booked in advance, so new episodes keep coming.
Want a studio of your own instead? We design and build those too: see podcast studio setup.
