Using lots of hands-on exercises we explore the power of podcasting. What is podcasting? Why is the spoken word so effective? Who can podcast? (clue – anyone!)
We look at genres and formats, planning your podcast, working with talent, the art of the interview, scripting/presenting, how to handle audio equipment, and an understanding of the ‘back end’ – editing choices, hosting and social media.

Format
This session will alternate instruction in the elements of podcasting you need to consider and a number of practical exercises to help you come away with a plan for your first (second or third) ideal podcast.

Audience
The class will be tailored according to participants’ experience.
We will contact confirmed participants to ask you to indicate your experience level with audio interviewing/podcasting and what you’d like to get from the course.
Participants will come away with hands on experience in interviewing, handling recording equipment and working with talent, scripting and presenting, knowledge of hosting options and a plan for their ideal podcast.

Science in the news: Life after the front page

When: Wednesday 14th November, 2:40pm – 3:40pm
Where: L1, Level 2 to the left of the registration/foyer area, down the hallway and through the doors on the right
Hashtag: #W16

As Communication Professionals, we dream about securing front page media coverage for our respective organisations. The reality is that getting great media coverage is the easy part. Sensitively and effectively managing the public interest following a high profile media story is much more challenging, especially when your talent is more at home in a laboratory than in front of a journalist. In this session, Carolyn MacDonald, Melea Tarabay and Emily Woodhams will share their experiences and advice for surviving ‘life after the front page’, including managing consumer expectations.
