Fan Cast (Dribblecast Decision Making)

[dreamrock]

I've got three received and scheduled so far. Phenomenal reads from Rish and Morg.

Knife ... Thursday
Jacked ... Friday
Worrywort ... Saturday

Woot, more Swamp readings and of Poe too. Can't wait to check that out.

I just pinged up 13MB file of Vacation on Praxis. If it falls down somewhere I will have to re-encode at a lower bit rate....

Rish, are you trying to raise the standards around here? Geesh.



Great read, was damn funny.

[Rish Outfield]

Rish, are you trying to raise the standards around here? Geesh.

Are you kidding? I've heard dribblecasts done with sound effects, multiple voices, musical score, and one of them even made your teeth whiter as you listened to it. I'm the one who needs to step up my game here.

Dribbled

Loved the outro Rish! Why, I could almost hear the wind whistling through the mantle.

First: Rish's take on Knife was great! I'm almost afraid to have mine posted. Ah, well, that's life.

Second: I noticed that there is music from YouTube in one of the Dribbles. Is that fine for us?

[dreamrock]

There are, shall we say, a number of episodes to be scheduled. After spending most of today doing sound production, I'm kind of exhausted so I'll start scheduling them tomorrow. Of course, if I get a second wind, I might get to a few today. No promises.

What's the smiley for low mana?

The correct thing to do is use music which is either public domain or has granted free use for podcasts. Earlier in this thread there are discussions about good sources for said items.

or make it yourself which can be a lot of fun.

I am the worst offender. I am giving attribution, but I should be using podsafe music, or getting permission from the artist.

Thanks for the link dump

These guys have some good quality sounds, and some not so good.

Here is some good CC music, but it tends to lean toward house/trance more than anything.

My personal favorite source of free music. He's given me permission to use all or part of any song I wish (but contact him personally for your stuff). Just wants links and credit. Music is pretty good, and is quite varied. The singing isn't all that great, though. Luckily, he only has a few songs with vocals. I'm using some of his stuff in my ongoing project for the Dunesteef.

Thanks to you and dreamrock for the links.

Whatcha doin' for the Dunesteef? (Forgive me if that would be obvious from listening to current episodes - I'm the kind of compulsive that needs to listen to a podcast sequentially from the beginning and I'm only up to December 2009).

Oh, that reminds me. Sometimes I make my own music using PaulStretch. If you've heard extremely slowed down ethereal Justin Bieber (trust me, if you like spacey and creepy, Bieber is totally tolerable this way and the lyrics are slowed down so much they can't be understood), PaulStretch or a program like it was used to produce the music.

It's almost certain doing that with commercial music and then using that for podcasts is not legal. Instead, I take random recordings I've made (or stuff from one of the public domain places I use), use Audacity's Truncate Silence (set minimum silence length ridiculously low and the ratio to 6:1 or higher), and then use PaulStretch at 8x or higher. If it's a long track, I usually only give Paul the first minute or so because it takes forever and can easily turn a 3 minute song into a 3 hour song.

If I recall correctly, I used audio stretched that way as the background for one of the "scenes" in Early Riser.

Nice! I'm going to have to try this with "California Girls" and "Poker Face".
