SCRIPT FORMAT
Write a script or outline for your podcast. This will help you block out the structure of the podcast as a whole, and will clarify the types of sounds you will need to capture.
Use a basic, straightforward format for your script. List who is speaking, followed by what he/she says (or a rough guess of what may be said). For example: Roger Smith: "I’m a piano tuner, and I learned what I do from my Uncle Joe."
Your script MUST include sound cues and descriptions of the sounds. Present these sound cues/descriptions in all UPPERCASE letters so they stand out. For example: PIANO PLAYS A SHORT BIT OF MUSIC, VERY OUT OF TUNE.
While you won’t be able to script what happens in your interviews beforehand, you can outline what kinds of information you want, what questions you will ask and in what sequence your interviews should unfold.
You can script your introductions, and any of your narration ahead of time, and that should be in the script. For example: Narration (John Doe): "I met Roger Smith at the local coffeeshop one afternoon . . ."
A suggested format for your script could be the scripts for the New York Stories audio portraits, such as the one found here.

ReplyDeleteRohan - Not everday do you think about a nuclear warhead, but I do. A warhead must be handled with extra care. (Loud thud and crash)....don't worry that wasn't a bomb, we don't actually have bombs here - we create the internal devices designed to make each bomb safer and less likely to accidentally detonate.
Kris- Hey dad will you sign this?
Rohan- this is my oldest son Kris. He is our Engineer....
(drill noises)

I am going to interview my aunt who works at a sewing factory. I'll start off my giving her introduction and explaining what people who work in the sewing industry do. Then I'll start with the sounds of scissors cutting thread and sewing machines. My aunt will explain the dangers of working at a sewing factory and how cautious you have to be.
