Production Lane · Podcast

Podcast production, end to end.

I run shows from the booking conversation to the published episode and the clips that come after. I edit, mix, caption, and package; I build the React + Remotion pipeline that absorbs the parts that don't need a human; and I keep the same standard on every release.

Shows I produce

How I produce a show

The same workflow on every episode. Production hands on the parts that need taste; the pipeline on the parts that just need to happen.

  1. 01

    Book and prep the guest

    Outreach, pre-interview, run-of-show. The show stands or falls on who's in front of the mic; the rest of the pipeline assumes a good conversation in the can.

  2. 02

    Edit and mix the episode

    Multi-camera cut, color pass, full audio post in DaVinci or Premiere. The same standard on episode 50 as on episode 1.

  3. 03

    Captions on every release

    Caption pass and subtitle QC. Accessibility is a production step, not a publishing step.

  4. 04

    Pipeline absorbs the rest

    Transcript ingestion → schema-validated render contracts → programmatic clip rendering → template-driven lower-thirds. The Remotion + Zod stack ships social clips and graphics with fewer repeated timeline rebuilds.

  5. 05

    Package and publish

    Thumbnails, titles, end screens, scheduled distribution. The publish-side work that converts views into a growing channel.

Stack on every show

Production

  • DaVinci Resolve · Premiere
  • Descript for transcript-first edits
  • Multi-camera shooting + ATEM switching
  • Caption pass + accessibility QC

Systems

  • React + Remotion render compositions
  • Zod schemas for typed render contracts
  • Node orchestration around transcripts
  • Vercel for the show site + serverless endpoints

Who I'm a fit for

Teams that need both halves of the job done by the same person.

  • Independent podcast operations growing past one or two episodes a month and feeling the post-production wall.
  • Podcast networks (Pushkin-, PRX-, WBUR-style) that want a producer who can also build the pipeline behind a new show.
  • Higher ed and L&D teams launching a podcast or lecture series and wanting it to ship reliably from week one.
  • In-house brand podcasts at companies where the show is the marketing program, not a side project.
