- About Me:
- I've worked in mental health services and have lots of experience of cognitive behavioural therapy, research, management and education and training for mental health practice. I gave up full-time work recently to do an MA in Scriptwriting at Goldsmiths college and will finish this in September. I've been involved in supporting the mental health service user movement for a long time and plan to focus on this after the Goldsmiths course. I'm keen to learn more about social networking, video and audio podcasting so any help you could offer would be very much appreciated.

Here are some places to look at to get you started.
http://www.jasonvanorden.com/ - Jason is an American guy who talks about literally everything you need to know about podcasting and how to get started. He's great - very clear and helpful. http://www.how-to-podcast-tutorial.com/index.htm
To record sound: I recommend Olympus recorders as a cheap and cheerful way to get started. They record in 'wma' format but you can easily convert these files into an mp3 using a free converter like jodix. http://www.wma-mp3.org/
To buy Olympus recorder online: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000bt98QC/kaufenundbe2-21/ref=nosim
Buy a good microphone though as the Olympus inbuilt one isn't great (it's more of a dictaphone).
To buy a decent sony mic: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-ECM-MS907-Stereo-Digital-Microphone/dp/B00005QBUW/sr=8-
7/qid=1170162489/ref=pd_ka_7/203-7219960-9760722?ie=UTF8&s=electronics
To edit sound - use audacity to get you started. It's free and easy to use. http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
Jason does a really good online tutorial to get you started at: http://www.how-to-podcast-tutorial.com/17-audacity-tutorial.htm
To upload a podcast: Use www.switchpod.com - it's as easy as setting up an email address and it's free! It will host your podcast and create a 'feed' which people can subscribe to. This means whenever you update your podcast, your subscriber will automatically get your latest episode.
Give me a call if you have any other questions. if you're interested, our next course is on the 26th and 27th July which takes you through all of the above and teaches you how to make good content which is the most important thing of all!
Good luck!
Nat
