Not at all. Most of our clients are first-time podcasters. Our team handles the technical setup, audio levels, camera framing, and lighting so you can focus on the conversation. We also offer AI-curated question prompts to help you lead a confident interview.
We use broadcast-grade cameras, studio lighting, and professional microphones. Every session is recorded in high-definition video with clean, isolated audio tracks for each speaker, which gives us maximum flexibility in post-production.
Most of our clients book 60 or 90 minute sessions. That gives you enough runway for a natural conversation plus a few minutes at the start and end for setup and debrief. Longer sessions are available if you want to batch multiple episodes in one visit.
Yes, and we recommend it. Many clients batch three or four episodes back to back. One well-planned session can produce a full month of weekly content plus short-form clips for social.
Yes. Our production packages include editing, colour correction, audio cleanup, intro and outro, and branded graphics. We can also produce short vertical clips optimized for LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.
Standard turnaround is five to seven business days for a fully edited episode. Rush turnaround is available on request for time-sensitive content.
Yes. We offer AI-curated question generation based on your guest's background and your show's focus. You get a prepared interview flow before you sit down, which makes first-time hosts sound like veterans.
Absolutely. You bring the guest, we handle everything else. We can also host remote guests who join by video if needed, though in-studio interviews typically produce the best results.
Wear solid colours that contrast with your skin tone and avoid tight patterns or logos. Bring water, any notes or questions you want on hand, and any props or products you plan to reference. We'll send a full prep checklist once you book.
You do. You retain full ownership of your video, audio, and any derivative clips we produce. We only use your content for our portfolio with your explicit permission.
We can. Full-service packages include distribution setup on all major audio platforms plus YouTube publishing. If you prefer to self-publish, we deliver the final files in the formats each platform requires.
For most business goals in 2026, yes. Video gives you searchable YouTube placement, clippable moments for social, and the trust that comes from being seen on camera. Audio-only podcasts still work, but video compounds your reach across more platforms from the same recording session.
Yes. We create custom intro animations, lower thirds, episode title cards, and end screens that match your brand. If you don't have a brand kit yet, we can design one.
We offer reduced rates for registered Ottawa-area nonprofits and charities, and we regularly partner with mission-driven organizations that want to use video content to tell their story. Reach out and let us know what you're working on.
