Future Podcast Episodes

Future Podcast Episodes

I have been asked several times what kinds of ideas I have for discussions, so I'm going to keep this article updated with ideas for future interviews, and use this as reference for those questions.

Types of episodes I'd like to record:

  1. Standard interviews on a specific topic
  2. Brainstorming sessions - This is currently just an idea.  I'd like to get together a group of creators to take some standard shoot ideas and come up with ways to make them more interesting.
  3. Portfolio review and planning - Another idea I haven't recorded an example of.  I'd like to bring in a really experienced creator and pair them with a fairly new creator and discuss how to improve their current work, and build a plan to get to where they want to go
  4. Shoot and post-shoot discussion with picture review and edit - This came up as an idea on a recent podcast.  We would do a shoot, and then sit down and record the picture choosing and editing session afterwards.  Discuss which pictures we liked, and how we wanted to edit them.
