Okay, HEAR ME OUT. I'm live tweeting this session on how the @20korg sausage is made.
I know it's not fiction--but I KNOW we're all gonna learn a lot.

20khz takes 200+ hours per episode. This shit is METICULOUS. Honestly, a lot of what I learned about sound design for fiction from 20khz.

Ready to PAINT WITH SOUND? 🎨 The legendary @starplanes is here at #PM22 to tell us all about sound design 😍
First, what the heck is a soundscape? Let's break it down;
-What does the audience want to know?
-Where does it take place?
-What is in the place? What things are there?
-How does the place FEEL?
And yes, you'll start listening to all the sounds around you closely #PM22

And Minear is also a visual artist, so they're always thinking about light. They're thinking about the changing colors of clouds ☁️⛅⛈️
The same is true for sound: "I think about how the sound is impacted by the things around it" #PM22

STOKED to talk about podcast cover art here at #PM22! This panel is all about standing out in a sea of other podcast cover art with panelists @michelegdale @Kristen_Hayford @joshua_trae and @galenbeebe! Live tweet starts here!
Step 1: Establish your purpose
You need your podcast name, obviously, but what else is podcast art for?
It's taking your audio's vibe and giving your audience a visual intro to what they're going to hear #PM22

Podcast art is also part of your podcast's brand. It'll be there on all of your marketing, including "out of home marketing" eg billboards, taxi tops, etc. ads outside of the home #PM22

Dutes starts off saying she doesn't want to wait for another Halle Berry or Denzel Washington to win an Oscar but in the podcast world. We NEED to be doing better than Hollywood. #PM22
Popping in a second late to @missdefying talking a great first scene of an #AudioDrama here at #PM22! Live tweet starts here!
First: think about the vibe of your story. Set the vibe up top!
Next: make your audience curious. Encourage them to ask questions. Who's the antagonist? What does the protag want?
Next: you do not have a lot of time to hook an audience. Add tension FAST! #PM22

Make sure the dialogue between your characters shows what makes them different. Audiences will get characters confused! We get them confused in TV different!
Start with strong dialogue and distinct actor voices. #PM22

First, a disclaimer: this is Sarah's experience, NOT a how-to! It's just their story.
And when they say honest, they mean it. They say making this presentation was "oddly cathartic" #PM22

When Werner started, the landscape was VERY different 👀
Werner stresses they are *for real* from the midwest. Like, the for real for real Midwest.
Point being: if you want an adaptation, you do not need to live in NY or LA #PM22

Next live tweet here at the audio fiction track of #PM22 is starting! This session is on making ✨cinematic✨ audio with @misty_flores, @naomicshah, Zackary Grady, Adam Pincus, and @picturestart! 🎥
Q for Shah: Green Mountain is like "if a Hallmark movie were inclusive" 😂 -- how did Shah get into audio? What's their process?
A: Diversity and representation are factored into every single step of development. Why hasn't a project like this been greenlit? #PM22

Every single aspect of the business model of @meetcuteromcoms has diversity and inclusion baked in, behind the mic and in front.
Hollywood gives pushback on diversity, but for Meet Cute, it's helped them expand their audience! See the Edison research tweets from earlier #PM22

Next live tweet: Faith McQuinn of @ObserverPix and @RealmMedia! This talk is on Dramatic Strategy for #AudioDrama! #PM22
First: how do you pick your best story idea to actually make?
1. What are you obsessing over?
2. Which is the easiest to outline?
3. Which one best fits the medium? ("Not every story you come up with should be a podcast.")
4. Which has the strongest characters? ymmv #PM22

Up next, we start the #AudioDrama panels! Live tweet of All Together Now: Audio Drama with Ensemble Casts with @chemicallywrit AR Olivieri @inkphemeral @MissAliHylton and @starplanes
First up, introductions... but we all know them all, right? If you don't, go follow them and check out their work! These folks are all cornerstones of the industry #PM22
First question: how do you differentiate all the characters?
Hylton answers first: think about how the characters interact. How do they react differently?
Next piece of advice: casting is key! Cast different sounding voices and think (authentic) accents! #PM22

Livetweet of the #PM22 opening keynotes start here! Up first: a game of podcasting Never Have I Ever!
Up first for keynotes: @gsoto777 from @edisonresearch presenting data from the annual Infinite Dial, 2022 edition. There was a dip in listenership this year--let's dive into why 👀 (spoilers: it's rona) #PM22
When surveyed, podcast listeners largely said they listen to podcasts at home--but another huge portion of listeners said they listen in the car. And commutes to and from work... uhhhh... well... #PM22
Our livetweets of #PM22 begin! First up, we have Tom Webster with Sounds Profitable to talk After These Messages: a study on Creative Execution of Podcast Advertising! Follow along here for what we expect are going to be some HUGE revelations 👀🧵
After These Messages is a study of 1049 weekly podcast listeners done by Edison Research about the efficacy of different types of ads: live improvised and host-read; scripted and host-read; and the same scripted ad read by a professional announcer (Ashley Hamer) 🧵#PM22
The industry wisdom for some time has been that host-read ads are THE way to go, the only thing that actually gets listeners to pay attention to ads--but is that actually true, or is it just an assumption? Edison's got the actual data for us, finally! 🧵#PM22
