Episode outline
I had recorded some podcast material. Here was going to be my format. Making this a YouTube video show now. Is this too much? Too confusing? Opening clip | 15 second teaser clip Opening theme music | every episode same - how long is too long? Episodic Intro Transistion | Short Music - maybe changes - how long is too long? Episodic Middle Transistion | Short Music - maybe changes - how long is too long? Episodic Close | What lesson learned today? Closing theme | every episode same My background is in audio, so am I too hung up on a soundtrack? Your thoughts on music transitions.

@Tom Peracchio The structure seems ok. I would tighten the stinger to around 4 seconds though. Your first 30 seconds are very important on YouTube and people don't tend to respond to long animated show graphics like a TV show. If you want all those phrases, I would escalate them in quickly.
Introduction Tom Peracchio aka Cranky Cynic
My career in technology is a lot of telecom, on the AV side I've always been more into audio, and much less into video. I worked for a short time in radio and did some production on ancient analog equipment back in the 70s. While my plan back in 2020 was primarily an audio podcast, I think now I'm more inclined to do some videos, something than can roll out to YouTube. I'm passionate about telling stories about the forgotten geeks of the world. The world becomes a little bit smaller when you connect with people who share a common bond. Happy I found your channel, looking forward to hanging out with you online and learning more.

@Tom Peracchio Tom, I'm so glad you joined the storytelling room. Your background sounds so fascinating and as a fellow geek who is into geek history, I think I'm your target viewer haha! I work with a lot of people who have a storytelling background in another medium and just need to translate it to YouTube so you'll be in good company :) Also Alexa's group right here is fab too!
Has AI Ended SEO? Are You Optimizing Your Channel for AEO?
I thought I'd share my latest video here because it's very timely and practical! We’ve been told for years to optimize our videos for SEO. Keywords, backlinks, ranking tricks. But AI search is here… and it doesn’t care about your keywords! It cares about trust. And that’s where AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) comes in. 👉 In this new video, I break down: - What AEO actually is (and why it matters way more than SEO). - How creators, coaches, and business owners can position themselves as the trusted answer AI chooses. - The simple storytelling shift that makes you binge-worthy to people, and therefore to the AI that learns from them. Watch below. Curious to hear your thoughts! Do you feel ready for this shift from SEO to AEO? xo, Daryn

@Patrick Krekelberg do you have a video with your setup? I use the NEEWER Basics X12B but I don't use it or my nicer cam for interviews / meetings / podcasts bc I need to look at the screen but I'd to!
