» Catalyst: A Creative Industries Podcast

Catalyst

From Chapman University in Orange County California the Catalyst podcast was created as a way to give listeners a chance to learn about the Creative and Cultural Industries through conversations with individuals from a wide array of backgrounds who are working in these sectors all over the world. Originally created in house at the Center for Creative and Cultural Industries, the podcast transitioned in season four to the hands of our students. Students create their own Catalyst segments exploring the Creative and Cultural Industries from their own unique perspective.

Mr. Ryan Haley, who teaches the podcasting course through the Center for Creative and Cultural Industries here at the University is your series host, as he introduces and closes out each episode. Each interview segment however is completely written, conducted, recorded and produced by Chapman students. These students of the Center for Creative and Cultural Industries course: 304-Creative and Cultural Industries in Practice-Podcasting, start by learning to focus on the relationship between theory and practice. This means that after discussions focused on the importance of podcasts in modern media, they go out and create their own podcasts. Students who had no podcasting experience or technical ability were able to contribute all of the segments to the Chapman Catalyst podcast, with the goal being that they will take this ‘hands-on’ experience and carry it over to the launching of their very own series.

Season Eleven of Catalyst, Catalyst Explores Common Threads in CCI, will be releasing new episodes throughout Spring 2024. While season eleven will again see CCI Faculty, Ryan Haley, collaborating with former Catalyst producer, and Wilkinson Alum, Mike Gravagno ’18 for hosting duties, he will also be joined this season by former Catalyst contributor, Senior and CCI minor Alissa Sakamoto ’24. All the hosts work to give background and introductions to each of our student produced interviews. We hope you will tune in and experience firsthand the in depth look at the Creative and Cultural Industries though each of these hand-crafted episodes created by our amazing CCI students!
