Podcast: Tama’s Example August 29, 2008
Posted by Tama in podcast.trackback
This is an example of a posted podcast, just to show the layout and how the mp3 file will look once it’s uploaded to the blog.
Exegesis
Your exegesis – the critical essay giving the aims, context and rationale for your podcast, using the terms of reference and theory from the course, would go here (first, before the podcast itself).
The Podcast
Tama Test Podcast [1:00]
(The blue triangle is the play button, click it to hear the podcast. It’s a good idea to indicate the total length of the podcast in square brackets so your listener knows how long it runs for!)
Bibliography
Orb Gettarr, ‘The Ghosts of Ancient Light (FL Mix)’ (Music), n.d. c.2007, http://www.tetragrammatonproductionsltd.net/The-Ghosts-of-Ancient
-Light-FL-Mix.mp3, CC BY SA 2.5
With your bibliography, supply whatever information is available and relevant. Include the author (real name if possible, or the band or username is that’s all you can find, the title of the post/song/clip/etc., write the URL out in full, the year if you can find it (if not, use “n.d.” – no date – and if you can estimate the year, something like “c. 2007″ where the “c” means ‘circa’ (which really means ‘as best as I can tell’) and since it’s relevant to what we’re doing, the license under which you’re re-using any music or samples.
Release Forms
You don’t have to scan any release forms you have – just hand them in with your hard copy version of the exegesis.
Category
When writing your podcast post, make sure you select ‘podcast’ as the category, too!


Hi Tama,
i were wondering that could I only use the garageband to create the music instead of harness other musics, so if that, how could i figure out my bibliography?
hi Siyang – If you compose your own music in garageband, just note on your bibliography ‘Original Music Composed by Siyang Guan using Garageband’.
hi tama hope you are having a great day!
i could not attach my audio its already on an mp3 mode formated through audacity. it will always go to the gallery section then checking on the preview post its not there?
thanks!
