Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? We’re here to help.

Can a podcast be a video?

faq-icon

Yes, they can be turned into videos by either uploading static images alongside the original audio or filming the original podcast. With PlayPlay you can do both. By recording your voice within PlayPlay’s podcast video maker and adding royalty-free images from our library or by uploading your filmed footage and editing it inside the platform. Now you are ready to distribute your podcast on YouTube, and other popular channels.


What is Vodcasting?

faq-icon

Vodcasting is the process of creating a video version of a podcast. It involves adding visual elements such as images, graphics, animations and audio or by simply filming the podcast interview as it takes place to propose a more engaging and shareable experience.


Why should you make video podcasts?

faq-icon

Perhaps the biggest reason to try out video podcasting is reach. Despite the growing popularity of audio, online videos have broad appeal and resonate with nearly every possible demographic. With videos, the viewer’s eyes and ears are focused on your content — you’re holding their attention more completely. And remember, you can and should be releasing your episodes as audio too!

They also give you a huge advantage when it comes to marketing. First of all, only 17% of podcasters bother adding video — so if you do, you’ll stand out from the pack. It will also be much easier to promote on social networks, since these platforms are optimized for video content.


What types of video podcasts can you create?

faq-icon

Here are a few of the most popular, so you can explore your options and figure out which is best for you:

  • Interview: It consists of an in-person interview between two subjects, recorded on one or multiple cameras.
  • Remote Interview/Talking Heads: If most of your podcast interviews happen remotely, this might be perfect for you. This method can be easier than some of the other techniques, because you don’t need special equipment, just screen recording software that can capture your conversation.
  • Static Image + Audio: All you need to do is pair your audio file with a single image, or a short animated loop.
  • B-Roll or External Footage: It combines your recorded sound with any type of visual content you like, such as stock or original footage, animated text or illustrations, or even multiple still images.

What are the steps to create a video podcast?

faq-icon

Here’s a step-by-step guide:

  1. Dream up some ideas: This is the time to think about the big picture — the stories you want to tell, the topics you want to cover, and all the interesting people you want to talk to!
  2. Anticipate podcast production: Book interviews well ahead of time, and send interview questions with your subjects in advance so you get the best answers possible. This will help you maintain a consistent episode release schedule and keep your community coming back for more.
  3. Get your equipment: The essentials are a microphone, a camera and a tripod.
  4. Film and record: Keep the camera and microphone rolling, don’t bother turning them on and off if you take a break or stumble over your words; get comfortable before you jump into the episode; make sure your interview space is well lit enough.
  5. Edit your video and sound: They are all about audio — so you need to make sure yours is perfect! PlayPlay gives you everything you need to generate your video podcast in no time - no technical skills required!
  6. Make it visible: Distribution is just as important as creation. Distribute your episodes on audio-only podcasting platforms, social networks, your newsletter and website.

    It was often difficult… outsourcing video production makes the process more lengthy and not all creative decisions were under our control. With PlayPlay, we are much more intentional about planning and creating new visual content.

    I love how fast it is to create videos with PlayPlay. Before, it would take weeks from the creative brief to the delivery of the video by the agency. Now it’s just a matter of hours and the videos look just as good!
