February 28, 2023
10:00 AM - 12:00 PM
America/New_York
Dodge Hall, 2960 Broadway, New York, NY 10027 Gabe M. Wiener Music & Arts Library

How do you keep your listeners engaged? How can you create a sense of connection between you, the host, and your listeners? This workshop will cover vocal performance and sound design: basic mic techniques, vocal warm-ups, avoiding vocal fry/mouth noises, and incorporating music and sound effects. The workshop will also include tips for choosing copyright-free music. In this in-person workshop, participants will have the opportunity to record a few lines for a podcast intro. No pressure to participate in recording – feel free to just observe as well!

The workshop will take place in the Seminar Room of the Music & Arts Library, 701 Dodge. Enter Dodge Hall from the upper campus level, and take the elevator to the 7th floor. Ask for directions to the Seminar Room at the circulation desk when you enter the library.

This workshop is part of the Podcasting Workshops series (online and in-person), led by Film + Media Studies graduate student Emily Ko, currently Digital Audio Intern in the Music & Arts Library. Workshops are open to current Columbia students, faculty and staff.
