#14 - Just a brief one 13.04.2019 6:04

I have run this Podcast for a few months now and have used up all of my time allowance on the free offer from Soundcloud but it was good whilst it lasted. So after some research I found that Squarespace can offer a hosting service so I’m giving it a go! This episode is very brief and covers a correction required from Episode 13 and some words about this transition process, what I have learned so...

#13 - Mainly about travel, a bit about iPhone photography 13.04.2019 14:20

Charlie's Request! (Correction to follow!*) Covering: Vienna Charlie's request for iPhone photography tips/recommendations Headshot Releases Gear Purchase Video Editing Late Summer Holiday. * I mention 6 box grid for the iPhone screen but it is actually 9.

#9 - Testing, testing . . . 13.04.2019 3:58

This is a really quick episode where I test out some new sound recording gear, a Rode PSA1 boom arm and SMR shock mount. I have also used a different module in GarageBand to record it and I really like it - but it would be great to get some feedback from any listeners too. Compare this episode to previous ones and let me know what you think - thanks!
