Know your limitations

Chances are, you want to make the greatest video podcast in the world.

Well, you do have to manage your expectations of what your final product will look like.

Cameras, lighting and processing all come together to give that big “Hollywood” feel to modern programs and movies. Unfortunately for most of us, that equipment is way too expensive to afford.

That being said, the modern availability of applications dedicated to “the little guy” who wants to start a video podcast which utilized properly, can deliver a “polished” product.

You just have to remember that you do not have a multi-million dollar budget (yet!) and as your audience grows, you can constantly make small tweaks that will amount to a more professional production.

Even if you only have a computer microphone and a web-cam or are going to record via an iPad or on a smart-phone, you can make an entertaining video for an Internet audience looking for original content.

As long as your content is entertaining, people will continue to watch while shamelessly sharing your show to all their friends.
