Course Recording Workflow

Recording workflow: pre-prep → setup → shoot → review → edit. Batch shoots to amortize setup time.

Pre-recording prep

1. Script/outline — what you'll say
2. Slides ready — visual aids prepared
3. Wardrobe — clean, brand-consistent
4. Hair + makeup if applicable
5. Hydration — water within reach
6. Tea/water for voice clarity
7. Studio prepared — lights, mics, background

Recording day

1. Tech check (lights, mic, camera)
2. Test recording (1 minute, review)
3. Adjust if needed
4. Record in batches (4-6 lessons per day MAX)
5. Take breaks every 30-60 minutes
6. Re-takes if needed (use multiple takes)
7. Keep notes on takes (which is best)

Post-recording

1. Same day: organize files, note best takes
2. Next day: review, identify issues
3. Days 3-5: rough edit (assemble best takes)
4. Days 6-7: fine edit (transitions, music, graphics)
5. Days 8-10: final review, captioning
6. Day 11+: publish + promote

Don't rush. Quality compounds.
