Informal check-in/discussion post #1

[behindthepod]

Welcome to the first discussion post!
Here, you can check in with us mods regarding any potential concerns, talk things through with other BtP participants, or share your excitement!

A few questions for you to consider (no problem if you don’t know yet though! This is just us being nosey, and prompting you to think about things you may not have already got around to):

- Who is interviewing who, and what are your plans for who will edit?
- What do you guys want to talk about? Any broad or specific ideas, projects you have in mind, etc?
- How are you planning on doing the interview? Do you have a practical plan for recording?
- Which difficulties/hurdles are you foreseeing?
- Is there anything we can do to help, or anything you'd like us to know?
- Anything else?

Roae and I are talking about our podficcing process and how it has changed over time. We are going to interview each other. We Will talk over discord and both record our own audio track. Rose ia going to edit. Not set in stone but thinking about picking one early work and one more cutrent work and talk about the processes for each and how they have changed.

This sounds like a fascinating interview, thanks for letting us know what your plans are! Get in touch if you need anything from us (even if it's just a bit of validation).

- Who is interviewing who, and what are your plans for who will edit?
I am interviewing Lav, and might participate on some topics. I'll be editing and asking her loads of questions along the way on whether to keep X or Y part.

- What do you guys want to talk about? Any broad or specific ideas, projects you have in mind, etc?
We're going to talk about cover art, design movements, art signatures, tribulations of Being An Artist, and probably politics, history and cats.

- How are you planning on doing the interview? Do you have a practical plan for recording?
We're building a plan on GDocs with broad directions we want to take, a series of starter questions, and then we plan on giggling a lot and just bouncing off from there.

- Which difficulties/hurdles are you foreseeing?
Being too extremely distractable and procrastinating people. Jumping from topic to topic. Having a 4h interview and having to choose what parts to cut and which to keep. Time zones on top of two full time jobs.

- Is there anything we can do to help, or anything you'd like us to know?
Poke us form time to time to prompt us to Get Moving with it?

- Anything else?
Whoever reads this, know you look wonderful today. Have a great day!

"cover art, design movements, art signatures, tribulations of Being An Artist, and probably politics, history and cats" this sounds absolutely wonderful!!

We were planning on sending out emails and opening discussion posts at the end of every month. Would you like more frequent pokes?

Have a lovely day <3
