Optimizing Your Podcast For Video
Audio keeps getting supplanted by video and seeing aids believing. Video has higher standards and we’re transitioning from 1080p full HD to 4K. Audio hasn’t had the same progression. Does your smartphone sound better than a 1950s landline?
By optimizing your podcast for video, you’re planning ahead. You’re developing more skills. You’re showing up on YouTube, the #2 search engine. Bonus: you can turn the soundtrack into an audio podcast.
