Interest Check for a RPG PODCAST

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby HitoriRaven on Sat Apr 07, 2012 11:35 am

Hey hey all. It's Hitori, coming to you with an idea that Naft and I have been throwing back and forth.

As you can see from the topic, I/we plan on creating a podcast. Dunno if it's been done/tried before, but I figured I'd throw the idea out there. Right now, it's still in a baby stage, where we're figuring things out. But, I thought I'd post to gauge interest for listening/ guest starring if we DID do it. Because it'd be less fun if no one heard us talk about important stuff, right?

Plans: Right now, again, it's in a basic stage, but the idea is to have some introductions, maybe a current event/fun topic, and then we'll have some kind question or topic regarding RPing. If enough interest is shown, we'll be sure to formulate an actual timeline.

Anyway, yeah. Anyone who might be interested in listening or appearing on it, drop a line here.

EDIT: I have found the person who did the original podcast, while reading through the depressing I'm Leaving Thread. Entity of Sin, if I read correctly. If someone knows how I can check out these podcasts could link me to them or something, I'd appreciate it.

There was a previous attempt at a podcast, but the person responsible for it had other commitments.

For some more details, it'd be run completely on Skype, so those who would like to make an appearance will have to have the program.

I would like to be able to help out with this. I do have some experience with web based broadcasting. I used to do radio. But either way I think this is a really good idea.

Just make sure you all do the podcast, and not just talk about doing it. :P Just sayin'.

It's a great idea, none-the-less.

Brilliant. Well I am interested, as some already know.
My first thought, though, is the naming convention.

We can do a podcast, no matter what, and focus on our own activity on RPG but if we want to include RPG as more than just a mentioning, we would really need to get moderator approval. Probably Rem's approval at the end of the day?

I would listen. Not sure if you'd want a 14 year old on it though. haha.
Also what would you talk about? Surely you can only talk about RPs for so long then there would be nothing left to say.

Yeah, we're working on ways to make it interesting and keep thinking of topics. We also hope that it can develop as we make episodes. So...yeah, you might be seeing a thread for feedback. Or something like that.

EDIT: I'm 15, so no worries. We might as for guest stars. =D

Re: Interest Check for a RPG PODCAST

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby ViceVersus on Mon Apr 16, 2012 10:59 am

Hey, all! Here's an idea I had presented to the Design team in the past, but it was shelved due to poor timing on my part. If you have the time to tackle it, then then it's all yours:

The idea of an "RPG Podcast" has been tossed around quite a few times in the past, of that I'm sure - the most recent iteration being with the user Entity_Of_Sin. It lasted one episode. I don't really think anyone saw it.

What I think that the idea of a podcast is missing is the user. The past versions of it I have seen have just been one or two people talking about general roleplaying theory. There's no foothold for people to feel involved, and there's no real incentive for the community to settle in and watch.

I'm proposing an RPG Podcast that will solve that problem. It will serve as a "gateway" to the community, bridging the gaps between different circles of writers. Why not have a podcast that's all about user-created content?

"The Week in Gateway" or "The Week on Gateway" (either TWIG or TWOG; haven't decided yet) will be a weekly 5-minute video in a newscast format. Hosted by yours truly, it will attempt to cover the following things in no particular order:

    1. A featured Roleplayers Wanted thread that the users should check out.
    2. A featured Interest Check that the users should check out.
    3. Any updates made to the website (as per the "Recent Changes" page at the top of the screen)
    4. "What's Hot" on Gateway in terms of genres
    5. Notable user-submitted content in the Creative Realm
    6. A featured Tabbed roleplay
    7. Notable moments in the Multiverse/Gambit's Bar.

This, I believe, will greatly encourage more users to tune in on a weekly basis. Links to content will be provided in the description of each YouTube video.

This is obviously content that will be for existing users, but so long as we are continuing the idea of chasing down multiple tracts for the RolePlayGateway YouTube channel to have .. this is as good of a place to start. When users are tuning in on a weekly basis, that cements the existence of the channel in their minds. Then, a month later or so, when we submit the "JOIN GATEWAY NOW!" content, the users will have a familiarity with the channel, and can share the videos with friends both IRL or on the internet.

Without this, users won't be as inclined to share a YouTube channel they had no idea existed. With this proposed idea in the works, they'll have an investment to it - their name, their own roleplay, etc.


Thoughts?

It's a video'd or voiced(?) news. We tried to do something like this with the NRP stuff just to help eliminate confusion, we only got one video off and onto youtube. :(
But, I do like the idea. It would most certainly allow for people to know/understand what's going on at the moment instead of the usual, "Wait what?"
This will only work with strict deadlines though I think.

ViceVersus, you are right in line with the mode that I was personally gunning for. I want to take this sudden burst of motion and have it become a positive element in our little communities here on Roleplaygateway. Entertain, Uplift and connect the users. Being multifaceted and run by multiple individuals will help keep the focus diverse and, I hope, entertaining.

The biggest thing we are aiming for is having fun and trying to make people feel more comfortable and connected with the site, its users and its staff.

I'll definitely put your notes there into my compendium, Vice. Thanks!

Would you happen to have a link to this video? I think it would be interesting to watch as I have looked for play-by-post roleplaying stuff on youtube before but I didn't get any results.

It would be wise to contact members to try and see if they would like their information shared/RP discussed prior to bring it up in a podcast. You might find that some members would prefer to have their work left out.

Cookie - Here
This was I believe created and produced (I do not recall specifics) by DemiKara here on Gateway, and at the very least it belongs to DemiKara. It is a brief synopsis of what has been going on recently (at the time the video was produced) in the NRP scene. There had been plans to turn it into a larger thing but some of the NRP players like Jag said, prefer to have their work left out, or do not wish to inform of what is going on in their portion of the IC world.
