Click here to hear a podcast. This one is longer and fancier than the one you'll make, but it has music at the beginning and at the end, and it has talking in the middle.
Requirements:
• An intro -- 15 seconds or less. Fade the music out at the end before the main conversation begins.
• An outro -- 15 seconds or less. Fade the music in after the main conversation ends, and (optional) fade it out when the music ends.
• Music that you create--can be in the intro and outro.
• 3.5 to 5 minutes total length.
• Show care and effort.
Suggestions for recording audio: Use the voice memo on your phone, Twisted Wave (twistedwave.com), or audiovoicerecorder.com, or Zoom (if you're doing an interview). Click here for recording tips.
Finding copyright-free music and sound effects: Click Music or Sound Effects in the menu bar of the Pixabay site.
Editing: I would use GarageBand. Click here to see a screenshot of how to arrange the tracks. On your Chromebook, you can use Twisted Wave (twistedwave.com). The free version is limited to 5 minutes. Log in using Google.
