TIGSource Forums

So I've decided to do tigcast ,heres a short little sound clip of me talking to myself about it.

I'm hoping to have a different set of guests each week or fort night, hopefully week.
Don't expect anything amazing at first all great podcasts start out shit look at 1up yours as an example.

segments will probly be
news
new releases
of topics
interviews
so on
But not to formal i want the podcast to be laid back.

Not sure if it should be clean or not. (swears and poop jokes)

If you have an idea for a segment post here.
If you wanna volunteer for episode 0 or a future episode post here or pvt message me.I hope to record this weekend im an insomniac so times are flexible.

This will hopefully become a good place to announce projects and such as podcasts tend to attract alot of attention from geeks like me. (I currently listen to 20+ on a regular basis, which means i have no life, which means I'm perfect to host this thing.)

Itll be a community podcast so anyone can send stuff in but id prefer people joining me ii the podcast.(Segments with one person always seem to suck)

Sorry for the poor quality in the first part i was recording with the 360 headset.
And sorry for all the arrs and yeahs and i guss's. I was nervures ,talking to myself is very embarrassing and should be seen as proff of the above point

Any comments post in this forum.

This is going to rawk  :gentleman:

edit now with basic gramer

edit moved myself

i need volunteers for guests and such for this if i don't get any by tomorrow ill assume no one wants me to do a tigcast which is ok you can say that ill understand
but please i really wanna do this
thanks

Oh man, good luck.  We tried this once (http://doomlaser.com/misc/tigscast-intro-cheeseball.m4a) and never finished editing it down.   :'(

You want guests by tomorrow? Really now, chill out a little. Meter that enthusiasm to last.

Never done something like this before, but off the top of my head, you're going to need a bit of a plan. How about we (the community) work one out for the 0th cast? You seem to listen to a bunch, so what formats do you think work? How much time should you spend on a certain topic? What should be looked at? Roughly, obviously. Not some obsessively detailed plan.

Also, good luck on this. I think I can help a little, at least in theory.

yes i was a liitle hotheaded sorry id be happy to give it 2 or so weeks
as for that podcast you did before ,i listened to it and its over edited and to formal
it should be kept simple start with maybe a short theme
then just talk about this weeks games to get discussion going then after 30 minutes or so have a break come back and do an interview or whatever
least formal the beter
ideally their would be four people
two of whom are regulars
the hardest part really is getting 4 people together every fortnight
and id be glad to just edit it and be 2nd chair or whatever and let someone with a bit more carisma do the hosting
perhaps we could even have the guest host that'd be quite the novelty
but regardless i need at least one person to volunteer before we can even start
episode 0 should be considered as testing the waters more than anything else

as Confucius said
even the journey of a thousand miles begins with one step

we just need to get the ball rolling

I would love to do this.

I think it should be weekly, I also think it should shoot for an hour. I think it should be split up into 3 sections: what you are playing, news, and feature. So kinda the format that the 1up yours podcast follows. I listen to a few so I have a handle on what is needed. Ill try to come up with a demo, but I feel a little weird talking to myself, but Ill try to get it together.

sounds good man i wouldnt mind doing weekly either but itll be alot of work
you should probly go listen to the first episode of all the podcasts you listen to its usully some interesting stuff

hope you dont mind me posting twice in a row but i just had an awsome idea for a segment name

 :gentleman: the gentlemens club  :gentleman:

hehe get it
I'm so funny

i have no idea what the segment would be about
its sorta a play on top secret the bionic commando podcast "swingers club" were they interview their quests

Yeah, let's try and alienate girls/women from our well protected nerd hobby.

What about HOOTERS? (see what I did there?)

Oh, haha, very funny.  :-X

id like to add if you wanna volunteer a your awesome and b please include your timezone so we can work out a time that resorts in us not getting fired from day jobs or being late to school from sleep depravation
cheers

Sounds awesome, but are we going to use web-audio to converse, or do you have something else in mind? I listen to 1up's podcasts regularly, so I have a general idea of how the show works.

its probably gonna be skype unless anyone else has a better idea
i doubt doing it in person will ever be possible
maybe at igf we could do a special in person podcast or something
but yeah probably skype

yes godamn the world needs more indie game podcasts. go team  :beer:

k that's cool, I'm downloading it right now, but I need a headset.

I'm Eastern Daylight Time.

sweet well ill send you my skype name in pm

TIGcast sounds like an epic idea, especially if you can get some good indie developers alongside you for interviews. Hell just relaxing talking about anticipated releases, news, short reviews of recently released games as well as other special segments.
Wish you the best of luck with this sir.

Well this side of the Atlantic will be a bit hard to pace with I suppose. Though, neverthless there's always a workaround to every problem!

Just wanted to say good luck to you gentlemen.

It should be a lot of hard work, so gl.

if any musicians would like to do an intro or something itd be much appreciated
keep it short tho bout 5-10 seconds should do it
cheers

Due to scheduling conflicts, I can't do this podcast with Deku. The whole North America/Australia time difference coupled with not wanting it to impact sleeping schedules for work/school, made it very difficult to find a time that worked.

thats allright man cheers anyway
anyone else up for it just send me a pm
