Superman Returns

            Planning for the podcast

       Usually the movie will be picked on Monday, so that we can plan and research all week and podcast that weekend. However, for Superman Returns, that podcast was discussed very early on. It was anticipated to be one difficult show, because it was expected that this would be a movie everyone would like, which would cause less discussion. So information and facts were a necessity in order to keep momentum high.

            Day of Podcast

        With the return of Mike Stand (heâ��s not Supermanâ�¦ or is he?) We were all set for this show. It is important to run tests when recording to make sure everything sounds right, and no background noise can be heard. Most of the time, the funniest test run will be part of our outro, which is the ending of our show. We usually try to think of unique intros and have about five or six taglines, and the best one will make it on the show. Sound guy Z gives us a 5 second countdown and the banter begins.

            Post Production

          Since the show is unscripted, we usually only go on one take, which takes about a half an hour or so. Once we finish, we almost immediately start the editing process and as well as getting the website ready for production. Whatever we donâ��t finish on Saturday, we will finish on Sunday in order to have it on the website Sunday night or Monday morning.
