About Trident Tech's Podcasting Courses

 

“Podcasting is the newest evolution of mass communication that allows individuals to broadcast without the need for transmitters, towers or special licenses,” said Glenn Seale, Film, Media and Visual Arts Dean at Trident Technical College. “One of the most exciting aspects of Podcasting is that content creators now have the power to be heard worldwide without massive financial investment or permission from annoying gate keepers.”

 

As the popularity of the format has exploded, major media organizations have begun pouring resources into podcast content that can entertain, promote brands or products, or inform audiences on relevant topics and issues of the day.

 

“Podcasting has grown into a big industry on its own,” Seale said. “More and more individuals are inquiring about how to start producing their own podcast, so TTC has decided to offer some basic courses to get people up and running.”

 

“Whether you are a novice or a seasoned audio producer, these courses offer students the opportunity to engage with a media professional in person,” Seale said. “Since podcasting requires some initial technical training, being in person and working hands on provides a much better learning experience than what many online podcasting courses can offer.”

 

Podcasting students at TTC will have the opportunity to use the college’s Media Arts facilities and get a glimpse of the high-end audio recording equipment housed there.

 

“In these courses you will learn how to build your own audio podcast from the ground up,” Seale said. The courses cover the important elements of high-quality podcasts that attract subscribers, as well as the types of recording gear, software and hosting options students will need to know about to turn their show ideas into reality.
