Lynda.com, the multimedia training site of Lynda Weinman, has introduced a new series of tutorials on podcast creation, Podcasting with GarageBand 3.The tutorials, by photographer and digital media guru Scott Bourne, guide students through the process of creating a podcast, including: setting up the software, recording voices, selecting music, adding sound effects, enhancing a podcast with pictures and video, publishing to iTunes or third-party hosts, and more.
The title is live now at lynda.com and CDROM versions will be available for purchase later in the second quarter.
