How to Make a Vodcast: A Basic Introduction


There are several steps to making a vodcast. The first step is to get hold of the necessary equipment: See the links below for more detailed descriptions of the vodcast-creating process, but a rough overview is:
  1. Record the videos you'd like to present to the vodcast-hungry public. (More than one, because a vodcast is effectively a channel of several recordings.)
  2. Add some creative and professional touches with your video-editing software.
  3. Upload your videos to your webspace on the internet and think of descriptions for each of them.
  4. Create an RSS feed with the links, titles and descriptions of your videos. Check the file is written correctly here. Update this list as and when you do more filming.
  5. That's it - you've finished. Now tell the world by submitting your vodcast to Vodstock.com and other directories.
