The tool I used during my planning process is the Microsoft application Visio, which is a storyboarding application that gives users the ability to create flow-chart diagrams for outlining. In the platform I utilized different figures like rhombuses, squares, rectangles, lines, and arrows to draw a map of my podcast episode. My final project will have themes and ideas pertaining to: filter beautification, name identification, and the “#BlackGirlMagic”. Specifically, I will focus on how social media determines beauty and the visibility of ethnic beauty in online spaces. The audience for these themes will be Black women and people of color (POC). From there, I created three different sections that have sample podcast text of what I plan to say. Each section is labeled as a topic and the source that will be referenced. For example, for the “#BlackGirlMagic” section, I will be referencing the journal “#BlackGirlMagic: Impact of the social media movement on Black women’s self-esteem by Jadesola T Olayinka et.al. Utilizing Visio to descriptively create an outline of my podcast has worked sufficiently, because I have narrowed my talking points and found sources to support my discussion.
