We also intend to use one of each of your icons/profile pics on the cover, so please think about which one you'd like us to use, and go about making sure you/we have permission to use it for this purpose.

Rules and all

Introducing Behind the Pod, an interview feature series that showcases the backstage process of podficcers and podfics!

Your mods are Annapods and frecklebomb.

Have you ever listened to a podfic and wondered how they did that thing? Do you have a favorite podfic that you would love to know the backstory of? When you are making your own podfics, are you curious how other people’s process differs from yours? Is there a specific aspect of podficcing you don’t really do but would love to learn about?

On the other hand, is there a particular way you do podfic that you think people should know? Do you have a specific podfic with a backstory you want to tell? A particular technique or a project you did something specific with that you really want to talk about? Do you have experience with a less-discussed aspect of podficcing, like hosting, cover art, modding…?

If any of these viewpoints feel relevant to you, consider signing up for Behind the Pod. As an interviewer, get the answers you’ve been wanting to know! As a interviewee, showcase a project or technique or knowledge! Or do both!

If you’re curious about where we got the idea and what it could look like, check this tweet, that spawned another subthread and then this follow-up thread announcing the vague beginnings of the series.

( FAQ 1-10 )

11) Rules recap:

You must sign up as a group of two or more, we will not be matching people together for this round.

There will be 6 episodes in this series, and thus space for 6 groups to sign up.

We will not be editing your interview, so do any editing you feel is necessary before you submit it.

There is no minimum or maximum interview length and no set topics of discussion or restrictions on the interview format.

There is one mandatory-for-everyone check-in, and many optional ones.

Schedule:
12 May - 16 June: sign-ups
