After you're done recording, we deliver the first draft of your standard edited episode within 3 working days. Three standard highlights can be produced within another 2 working days. How fast we go also depends on how quickly you get back to us with feedback. The first episode might take a bit longer as we get the hang of your style and set up the template based on your input. But after that, it's smooth sailing for the next ones.
You're more than welcome to bring any props or branded objects to make your show stand out. We recommend you reach out to our team with your chosen setup as they can make helpful recommendations based on the set. Different setups lend themselves to different kinds of branded signage and objects.
If Poddster is handling the post-production, you will receive your edited episode via Frame.io. If you are not using Poddster's post-production services, you are required to bring your own SD cards, hard drive, or laptop with enough storage.
