“Last Mile in AI” Podcast Production & Social Content

LILT’s “Last Mile in AI” is a technology-focused podcast exploring artificial intelligence through conversations with industry leaders and experts.

I handled post-production for the first episodes of Season 1, with the goal of turning remotely recorded Riverside interviews into a professional, engaging, and visually consistent podcast experience.

The project covered the complete post-production pipeline, from 1080p video enhancement and editorial restructuring to audio cleanup, music curation, visual treatment, and short-form content repurposing for social media.

Elevating online Riverside recordings to a professional podcast production standard.

Improving lower-resolution source footage while maintaining a natural visual appearance.

Balancing audio quality between speakers recorded with different microphones and environments.

Removing filler words, pauses, repetition, and weaker conversational sections without making the dialogue feel over-edited.

Maintaining visual engagement within the limitations of remote interview footage.

Presenting technical AI conversations in a clear, accessible, and well-paced format.

Identifying moments from long-form discussions that could become compelling standalone social content.
