Summary
What this is, is a bunch of tips and tricks. There’s a Quick Start Guide at the top, for if you’re staring at your very first podfic and don’t know where to start. After that there’s a lot of the podfic equivalent of, ‘Have you tried a baking strip?’ and, ‘This is what butter creamed with sugar should look like.’ Etc. Take what’s useful; forget about what’s not. Cheers.

Summary
If you’re anything like me, large projects intimidate just by not knowing where to start, and, how do I keep track of where I’m AT??? Podficcing, especially for longer works, runs to large projects with several moving parts.
So.
Here is a breakdown of how I wrangle my distractibility into turning out polished work. This guide does not deal with the technical aspects of voice work or sound editing, but rather gives a template for managing the work. It is intended for beginners, but experts are welcome to chime in with their own best practice in the comments.

[Meta] Exporting Your Podfic by GoLBMeta (GodOfLaundryBaskets)
Fandoms: Podfic Meta - Fandom

Summary
In general there are several different file export options you'll see used. Both by audacity or whatever device you're using to record with (especially your phone). Some of them will be easier to control than others. What I'll mostly be focusing on is audacity because that's the one that provides by far the most number of options.
How you choose to export your podfic can have a big impact on quality (if done improperly) or the size of the file you're asking people to download.

Summary
A repost of my 2012 meta, originally written on Dreamwidth for the "Feedback" day of Pod-Aware 2012.
I kept thinking about this and starting lists of all the things I like in feedback, but then I realized they all came back to the same idea: Tell me you liked my SKILLS.
There are two ways I can think of to do that: distinguishing my reading from the writing, and distinguishing my skills from my body.

Summary
Hooray! You've made a podfic! But now, how do you share it? Posting to tumblr, youtube, or a fandom-specific community are all decent options. But chances are, if the fic you recorded is from AO3, you'll reach the largest and most receptive audience by also posting to AO3.
The archive welcomes all types of fanwork, but is structured and built primarily for written works. Posting podfic can be confusing or complicated if you're unfamiliar with it. This guide will cover both the basic mechanics of posting podfic to AO3, as well as the typical conventions used by the podfic community to help your audio be found by people who want to listen.
