PodCamp Pittsburgh lineup heavy on skills development

PodCamp Pittsburgh kicks off in a few days with a solid lineup of sessions truly designed to build necessary production, promotion and voice skills.  This is a community effort that is demonstrating that, at its core, Podcasting is a medium that depends on basic skills to be successful and engaging.

I’m intrigued by the slant towards video Podcasting with sessions that range from basic production skills to the use of greenscreens.  Two sessions that I’m sorry I will miss include Standardized Audience Metrics (presented by Chris Macdonald and Dave Chekan of Libsyn), and Going Global (presented by Jason Cable).

We’ve matured to a point where we now need to explore both the necessary and desirable core-skills and share them so that the whole community can benefit.

  • Just to make sure we're not too mature, we'll be partying with the folks from Tiki Bar TV. Check it out:

  • If podcasting doesn't have room for Shane and Tom's Squeezebox, I don't want any part of it :)
  • I hope we don't get too mature. There needs to be a lot of space for low tech, low investment podcasting too. If we end up sounding just like commercial radio, what have we gained?
