:: Presentation Primer
08/25/2009
Many individuals are called upon to
give presentations, but many have no formal
instruction on how to deliver the most effective
presentations. So for the benefit of those who
might need a bit of help, we have put together
a primer for presenters...
1. Attire
You should always dress professionally, even
if the event is somewhat informal in nature,
and always dress in a way that does not distract
or detract from your presentation.
2. Test The Equipment
If your presentation involves using any equipment,
such as a microphone, computer, screen projector,
laser pointer, etc, be sure to test any and
all of the equipment prior to the beginning
of your presentation. It is unprofessional,
not to mention frustrating and distracting,
to have to wrestle with equipment problems in
front of a waiting audience. Try to identify
and resolve any technical issues and problems
before the presentation is scheduled to begin.

:: The Power
of Audio
08/18/2009
Sound effects are often used to compliment
and enhance artistic presentations, whether
they be podcasts, videos, or other audio visual
productions. Royalty-free sound effects are
typically non-exclusive and can be used by anyone
who purchases them. Professional sound effects
can give a podcast or production a more professional
sound. However, many new producers may not realize
that sound effects have copyrights, and in many
cases it is illegal to use a sound effect that
you happen to find on the web without properly
licensing it.

:: Hallmarks
of a Good Podcast
08/12/2009
There are many, many things that separate
a good podcast from all the rest. Here
are a few to consider...
Recording Quality
The quality of the recording is probably the
most critical component of a podcast. A good
podcast is easy to understand, and should be
recorded at a volume level that makes it easy
for listeners to hear all that is said.
