Video podcast editing basics
Video adds a second layer of decisions on top of the audio. The same audio and video podcast editing workflow starts with sound and then builds the picture around it.
Audio first
Viewers forgive average video but not poor sound. The audio is cleaned and mastered first, then synced back to every camera angle.
Cutting between cameras
The edit follows the speaker, with wide shots for reactions and overlap. Every audio cut needs a matching picture cut or a cover shot to hide the jump.
Clips and captions
Short vertical clips with burned-in captions help episodes travel on social platforms. Ask about them when you send an episode for a quote.
