Podcasting for Museums and Galleries

One Day Seminar Estorick Collection
Central London
Tuesday 17 March 2009

Podcasting for Museums and Galleries is an intensive, information-packed event which - to maximise learning and interaction - is limited to just 24 museum and gallery participants. It will be led by Rachel Salaman, one of the UK's leading podcast producers who has worked both with leading museums and galleries and with major companies.

The seminar will take participants through the complete audio podcasting process from start to finish and will incorporate practical demonstrations as well as actionable, in-depth information and advice. There will be the opportunity to discuss your organisation's particular requirements, and to get invaluable advice on your needs, your approach and your requirements.

During the course of the day, the following key issues will be covered:

    * An introduction to podcasting and how it is being used in the culture and heritage sectors
    * Examples of successful culture and heritage podcast projects
    * Tooling up: the equipment and software you need to get started
    * How to write an effective podcast script
    * Interviewing techniques
    * Demonstration of how to make a podcast, from start to finish
    * RSS and distribution: demystifying feeds and tracking
    * Marketing your podcast and reaching your audience

You'll also be able to raise in advance any issues you'd particularly like covered, so that the day will really meet your needs. This will be a unique, intensive and highly-rewarding event. Lunch and refreshments will be provided.
