00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:07.240
<v Speaker 1>Hey, what's up, Fellow creators. Welcome back to another episode

2
00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:10.480
<v Speaker 1>of the Video Editing Guru, the podcast where I dive

3
00:00:10.519 --> 00:00:13.039
<v Speaker 1>into all things video editing to help you become a

4
00:00:13.119 --> 00:00:16.399
<v Speaker 1>master in the art of post production. I'm your host, Dustin.

5
00:00:16.760 --> 00:00:19.280
<v Speaker 1>Today we're swerving a little from our usual route, and

6
00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:22.199
<v Speaker 1>instead of video editing, we'll be taking a deep dive

7
00:00:22.239 --> 00:00:25.480
<v Speaker 1>into the world of podcast editing. I'll share valuable tips

8
00:00:25.480 --> 00:00:28.039
<v Speaker 1>and tools that'll help you become a more efficient and

9
00:00:28.120 --> 00:00:32.159
<v Speaker 1>skilled podcast editor. If you're an aspiring podcast editor or

10
00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:34.600
<v Speaker 1>a season one looking to improve your skills, this is

11
00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:37.399
<v Speaker 1>a show you won't want to miss. Let's get into it.

12
00:00:39.759 --> 00:00:44.079
<v Speaker 1>Starting from square one, let's revisit the basics of podcast editing. Now,

13
00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:47.359
<v Speaker 1>editing a podcast isn't just about erasing your errors. It's

14
00:00:47.439 --> 00:00:49.960
<v Speaker 1>much more than that. It's about enhancing the flow of

15
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:52.840
<v Speaker 1>your content and making sure you've got your listeners hook

16
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:55.280
<v Speaker 1>to every word you utter. The main steps you need

17
00:00:55.320 --> 00:00:59.719
<v Speaker 1>to pay attention to include trimming those unnecessary pauses. Don't

18
00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:04.840
<v Speaker 1>show away from shortening those uncomfortably long silences or awkward moments. Also,

19
00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:08.239
<v Speaker 1>declutter your podcast by removing filler words like um uh

20
00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:11.000
<v Speaker 1>and like finally, do brush up on your audio levels.

21
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:14.280
<v Speaker 1>It's crucial to ensure all speakers are at similar volume levels,

22
00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:17.159
<v Speaker 1>and a tool like Adobe Audition or Audacity works like

23
00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:20.159
<v Speaker 1>a charm for this. Moving on, let me share a

24
00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:22.560
<v Speaker 1>few tips that can save you buckets of time if

25
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:25.400
<v Speaker 1>you're involved in the recording process. Make a habit of

26
00:01:25.400 --> 00:01:29.040
<v Speaker 1>setting markers during key moments. It'll do you wonders during

27
00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:32.519
<v Speaker 1>the editing phase. And let's not forget the magic of shortcuts.

28
00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:36.359
<v Speaker 1>Whether you're an Adobe Audition fan or an Audacity enthusiast,

29
00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:40.319
<v Speaker 1>learning keyboard shortcuts can save you hours in the long run.

30
00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:44.439
<v Speaker 1>Most importantly, maintain consistency. Make sure you use the same intro,

31
00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:48.599
<v Speaker 1>outro and background music across all your podcast episodes to

32
00:01:48.799 --> 00:01:52.120
<v Speaker 1>establish brand consistency. And a golden rule on top of this,

33
00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:55.439
<v Speaker 1>always wear headphones while editing. It helps you catch those

34
00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:59.680
<v Speaker 1>tiny audio details that might slip past the loud speakers. Now,

35
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:02.120
<v Speaker 1>let me introduce you to AI tools that can truly

36
00:02:02.159 --> 00:02:06.799
<v Speaker 1>transform your editing game. Tools like descript, a Phonic, Adobe

37
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:10.879

38
00:02:10.960 --> 00:02:14.759
<v Speaker 1>quality and decrease the time spent on editing. Descript allows

39
00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:17.439
<v Speaker 1>you to edit your audio by editing the text transcription

40
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:20.520
<v Speaker 1>of your podcast, a life saver when it comes to

41
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:26.120
<v Speaker 1>removing filler words and restructuring conversations. Meanwhile, Aphonic and Adobe

42
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:30.120
<v Speaker 1>podcast Enhance help you solve audio leveling and background noise issues.

43
00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:33.879
<v Speaker 1>And then there's Clean Voice, your go to tool for automatically

44
00:02:33.919 --> 00:02:37.280
<v Speaker 1>removing filler words and mouth sounds. These AI tools turn

45
00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:41.199
