In front of the microphone

Last Monday I recorded the third podcast for my company and I did a little intervention at the end of it. That is quite a change between recording and being in front of the microphone. Even if you know what to say, there is always something that goes wrong, a bad intonation or too much of “hum”, “euh” and so on.


What is also not easy at all, even if you know that you don’t have a direct audience in front of you, is not to be stressed and to express clearly your ideas. One time it is too fast, the second there is not enough rhythm or you simply say something incorrectly.


At the end, and according to our very good interviewer, the best is not only to have a good preparation of the interview, but also to script the answers as well. When it is done, it worth to repeat several times the text in order to be fluent during the recording, reading it as if it was in a conversation. Not easy, especially if you are not doing it in your native language…


Finally, after 3 hours of recording, everything was in the box and will be available, after some editing, on the website.
