cw: spousal death backstory

❄ Part 1 ❄ Masterlist ❄ Previous ❄

*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

When Cordelia awoke the next morning, it was to a pounding head, a lung wracking cough, and a fever. After a loud sniffle, she added 'sticky congestion' to her list of ailments. Trying to ignore the agitation of being ill, she shifted and her eyes slid around the room.

Upon entering Rakash's room last night, she found a rough-hewn desk and chair a top of pelt-like rug and books in an array of amateurish to professional binding. She didn't know if the books belonged to Karina or if they were legitimately bound Trollish texts and her exhaustion had outweighed her curiosity. There had also been a large fireplace, attached to the one in the main cabin room, she thought.

It took her a few minutes to locate the stairs that led to the mezzanine-like partial floor above, where his more bed and dressing area resided.

On the left side of the bed, morning light squeezed between panels of a curtained window. A large, foldable privacy screen sectioned off a small area of the room, flanked by a heavy, crudely made armoire. Her eye caught on the occasional tunic or discarded sock, reminding her she was in Rakash's domain. As if the scent lingering in his blankets wasn't reminder enough.

Vague snatches of last night danced through her mind. Her run-in with the thrall, the magic that had sizzled from her fingers, Rakash's confessional backstory.

Cordelia rubbed her fingers against the blankets swaddling her, as if she could erase the phantom sensations still burning there. While getting the medicine for Ebra, she had quietly sworn to not indulge Rakash, flirtatiously or carnally. He had disappointed her. She didn't bed people who disappointed her. Or that's what she told herself.

Avoiding the thoughts lurking at the edges of her thoughts, she considered whether she should attempt to venture down the stairs, despite her body's preemptive twinges, and to the kitchen for food.

"How're you feeling?" As if summoned by her consciousness and appetite, Rakash appeared from the stairway with a tray gripped in his hands. The shadows under his eyes had returned, making his features as grim-faced as the first time they met.

Strangely, something felt something was softer about him. Though that might just be thanks to her illness.

"Peachy," Cordelia croaked, her throat aching. Uncomfortable heat, unconnected to her illness, crept into her cheeks as she remembered her impromptu bath last night.

Rakash brought the tray closer, setting it on the bedside table with a soft clack. Without warning, he pressed his palm to her forehead. It took Cordelia a breathless beat to understand what he was doing just before he hummed in consternation, "I was worried this would happen."

"What?" As he stepped back, relieving her of his cooler palm, Cordelia eyed the offerings on the tray. Thick greyish glop steamed in the bowl. She presumed it was oatmeal or gruel. A mug with a greenish yellow hue that was hopefully tea. A piece of toasted bread and - amusingly - a small bowl of fruit sauce.

Faintly, she wondered if a trolling or three had assisted on this breakfast. If so, then they were all feeling well. That eased an unexpected knot in her chest.

Also among the food was her bound journal. An odd offering, she thought, before she remembered. It was the journal with the proportions for the medication scrawled in it. Rakash picked it up, waggling it in the air gently. "Tell me the measurements."

She blinked up at him, not quite understanding before realization hit her. Ah... it waswritten in Common, wasn't it?

That didn't explain why he wanted to know about the medicine now. Her eyebrows furrowed further, a slow mounting dread sinking into her chest. "Why? Your kids are fine, aren't they?"

"For you." Rakash tipped the journal closer to her head but stopped shy of lightly bopping her on the forehead.

Oh, that was why? Cordelia swallowed down a sigh of relief, that cold dread dissipating. Not even looking at Rakash, she dismissively waved her hand. "I'll be fine. It's just a cold."

Rakash narrowed his eyes, his features darkening for a second. He supposed he should be relieved she was back to being obstinate, but her tone rubbed him the wrong way. Something lurked between the words. It reminded him of her words the other night, when she asked if she looked like a "creepy, death-dealing mage."

He realized it hadn't been disgust that colored her tone then. It was disbelief. How could she be a mage? It seemed strange that Cordelia couldn't imagine herself being something.

Quietly, he watched her daintily spoon some of the fruit sauce – a concoction the kids swore she'd enjoy – into her mouth. She swallowed slowly, face pinching with a subdued flinch indicating her throat was raw. At least she went for another bite, which would hopefully fuel the fight inside her.

As he watched her eat, he considered how to convince her to allow him to help her. Maybe she didn't want to rely on him. Or maybe she just liked lording her abilities and capabilities over him. Though, that didn't seem the case, given the last twenty-four hours they'd endured. So why would she fight his assistance?

He supposed it didn't really matter. Cordelia was an adult and could do what she wanted, even if it caused detriment to herself. But something about how she spoke of herself nagged at his thoughts. Further, if she did get worse, would she be able to tell him the correct instructions for the medicine? His lips thinned at that thought. He really didn't want to lose her thanks to her own stubbornness, let alone to an illness he had medicines to combat.

Medicines he possessed specifically because of her.

An idea sparked through his head, forceful and warm. Before he thought too long in it, Rakash stepped forward, grabbed Cordelia by her chin, and stooped over her.

Her body went rigid at his touch. Heat bit at her cheeks and she wildly wondered if this was a fever or blush. Either way, a surprised squeak left her as he forced her gaze up. "What are you doi—!?"

Cordelia's body froze as Rakash swept down and caught her lips. She became very aware of the weight of the tray on her lap, torn between tossing it at the troll and holding it tight to ground herself. She also became agonizingly aware of the chill on one shoulder, where her nightgown had slipped low.

His heat eased the stiff ache in her muscles, the cold from her bones. Tired and weak, Cordelia let her eyes flutter shut, leaning into the kiss, and tilting her head a little. Her cheek brushed against one of his tusks as his tongue breached across her lips.

Despite the suddenness, the kiss was achingly tender. The affection made Cordelia twinge with need on a level entirely different than carnal. Something that battled against the pangs of illness, craving more simple touches versus salacious need.

When Rakash pulled away, Cordelia's eyes dazedly blinked open. She was greeted with his grin spread beneath his tusks.

"Oh no, I've been exposed to this highly contagious sickness." His deadpan words couldn't hide the smug glint in his eye as he leaned back. Once more he held up the journal and waved it in Cordelia's line of sight. "And if I get ill while my children's nanny is sick, there will be no one to care for the triplets."

She blinked up at him, eyes round and cheeks aching where his stubble razed her softer skin. Trying to ignore the embarrassment rising in her, her eyes narrowed. "Oh, you are absolutely wretched."

"As you've said before," Rakash sighed, though the slight curve of his lips betrayed his self-congratulations. Again, he waggled the journal in front of her. "The measurements?"

Cordelia had half a mind to ignore him. Stubbornness and spite didn't want to give into him, especially after he'd kissed her without consent! A small part of her knew she didn't actually mind, since it was Rakash. She shoved that small part to the deeper recesses of her brain, hoping it would never be seen again. He was just looking out for her stubborn self, since without her he'd be alone to care for his kids.

With that thought in mind, Cordelia sighed and relented.

"Zalmir and Kazri got quarter doses as precaution, while Ebra got a half dose for symptoms. Adult humans get full doses. I'm not sure about adult trolls, but I bought enough for ten human adults, just in case." Taking the journal, she flipped to the pages with the doctor's directions. After she indicated the measurements, describing how to differentiate between the ingredients through description or labeling, she shot him a withering look. "Happy now?"

Rakash took a moment to consider her instructions as he rubbed his chin. Once he relieved her of the journal, she pressed back against the pillows, glaring down into the bowl of oatmeal. She fought to convince herself that the way he mumbled the instructions back to himself, personalized for his own understanding, was not making her heart flutter.

When Rakash was certain he had a strong understanding, he flipped the journal shut – keeping a finger on the page to keep his spot – and glanced down at Cordelia. She refused to look at him. Her cheeks were a deeper shade of pink than a fever warranted and small bead of guilt pulsed through him.

It wasn't enough guilt to regret forcing her hand. Still, his voice was soft and gentle as he said, "I think I have it. Thank you."

Only when Rakash turned to leave did Cordelia bring her eyes up, glowering after him. As he descended down the stairs, and out of her sight, she remembered her food. Forcing her attention to the tray, she forced herself to eat while fending off nausea and suffering her sore throat. Another uncomfortable sensation had taken root alongside the queasiness. Something that she, yet again, didn't want to look too closely at.

x x x

Days passed and Cordelia's health slowly climbed closer to what one could call healthy. It was aggravatingly slow compared to Ebra's exuberant return to boisterous health. When she accused Rakash of getting the medicine measurements wrong for her, he calmly reminded her she also had a run-in with a thrall, which may have slowed her healing process. Even more infuriating was the fact she couldn't argue against that.

Even with her sniping, Rakash continued to bring her food, a change of clothes, and an allotment of medicine every day. His attentive behavior made the feelings in her chest tangle even tighter.

Worse, he always settled on the edge of the bed, side to side with her, watching closely as she drank the tonic. It was like he didn't trust her to take her medicine and on a few occasions she had half a mind to spit it at him. She never did, of course. It would have been a waste of medicine, but the temptation was there.

These were Cordelia's musings as she accepted the tonic from Rakash and as he settled beside her on the bed.

Imagining the shock that would paint his face made Cordelia vaguely smile. Of course, then his shock would give way to anger. Maybe even a scowl or a baring of teeth with a curled lip.

Cordelia had fallen silent, as she was wont to do during their newfound morning routine. Rakash chalked it up to her not being fully awake just yet. However, a few days had passed and she'd gotten better over that time, making him want to gauge her health.

He settled on the edge of the bed, leaning back against the headboard but not looking straight at the human woman. "How are you feeling today, Delwi?"

Thankfully, Cordelia had already gulped down the remedy, or else she may have choked. Heat sparked up her, hearing him call her the nickname she grudgingly allowed the trollings to use. The rush of blood to her cheeks made her skin burn as she shot a glare up at Rakash. "You do not call me that!"

"Why not? My kids do." He bit down a grin, watching from the corner of his gaze as the woman visibly bristled. A few days ago, she wouldn't have taken the bait. Opting instead to burrow further into the blankets, while half-heartedly complaining about his stench on them.

"This may come as a surprise to you, but theyare toddlers whereas you are not." Cordelia sniffed disapprovingly at him, settling the cup to the side as she dragged her spoon through the broth he had brought for the midday meal.

"So you noticed," he returned, the ghost of a smile dancing at his lips as his eyes hooded suggestively.

If this was how he interacted with his late wife, Cordelia could almost see his appeal. The irate edge of his voice had softened over the last few days, sounding far smoother than it had since she arrived. Rolling her eyes, she ignored the observation and clung to agitation. "I've barely noticed the difference."

To that, Rakash snorted.

"What?" Cordelia shot back at him.

"You either haven't met many children or know some awfully large ones if you could mistake me for a toddler." He leaned toward her, raising his eyebrows. At some point in their conversation, he had extended an arm behind her shoulders, along the top of the headboard. With her hair plaited and pulled over her shoulder, a vague thought realized he could coast his fingertips along the nape of her neck.

If he wanted to, of course.

"This may be hard for you to understand but I was speaking figuratively, not literally. You do understand the difference, don't you?" She narrowed her eyes at him, funneling haughtiness into her tone. Part of her didn't think he was listening. His gaze seemed angled behind her and Cordelia suddenly felt the open air on her bared skin there. The ambient heat of his arm taunted her.

"Barely." Rakash leaned closer toward her, arm sliding further along the headboard in an attempt to ease the itch in his fingers. Her body language tensed, the faint pink on her cheeks darkening as she turned away from him with a huff and returned to her soup. Like how his body heat teased Cordelia, hers tempted him. The last few days of taking care of her, coupled with his gratitude for her interference, had further softened him to this arrogant woman. It didn't help that his 'stench' and her scent were intertwined in his bed now.

He found his eyes drawn to her lips more often, especially as she ate, recalling the smallest of sounds she had made during their sudden kiss. His fingers curled, knowing how soft she was from that very first night. When he had accidentally stolen her away. Sitting with her under his arm, Rakash knew he would have willingly made the same mistake again.

The thought struck him like a club over the head and he sat straight, averting his gaze with his arm falling off the headboard and to his own side. Rakash had to remind himself Cordelia was not happy with the circumstances. Even if he wouldn't change his actions, she'd surely wish otherwise. That notion spun around his head, even when she shot him a curious look as he retreated.

If he was a lesser man, he could have convinced himself she was disappointed at him moving away.

They sat in silence for a few moments, Cordelia quietly eating and wondering why he'd suddenly pulled away. Rakash continued to sit on the edge of the bed, leaned back against the headboard. A safe buffer of space had squeezed between them.

It was Rakash who broke the amicable silence as he turned toward Cordelia. "Do you feel well enough to get out of bed today?"

She paused, shooting him a suspicious look with her spoon clamped in her mouth. The momentary relief of his eyes being turned away from her as she ate fled as a breathless sort of apprehension crawled back into her chest. Why she suddenly felt fidgety under Rakash's gaze, Cordelia didn't understand.

With that though securely in place, her eyebrow raised cynically as she eased the spoon from her lips. "So eager to put me back to work?"

Only with willful determination did Rakash not let his eyes drop to Cordelia's lips and watch the utensil slip from between her lips. Well, determination and curiosity to see her reaction to what he had planned. "No, I have something to show you."

Cordelia's nose wrinkled with preemptive disapproval, her thoughts swinging back to their previous discussion. She ignored the bite of heat on her cheeks as she said, "This doesn't have anything to do with you proving you're bigger than a toddler, does it?"

"No," he snorted and shook his head, unable to keep his lips from twitching into a grin. "Though, if you ask nicely, I might be inclined t—"

His teasing words were cut off as a flustered Cordelia flung a pillow into his face. As he chuckled into the cushion, she faintly realized that weeks ago she'd been perversely curious how Rakash looked when he smiled, when he laughed. Now, she was woefully unprepared for that expression on his lips, so close to her own face.

She could have leaned over, closed that distance, and—

Before Rakash fully lowered the pillow, a mass of blankets rained down on him. Cordelia scrambled from the bed, moving her bowl of soup to the bedside table with her mug of tea.

"A momentary change of scenery should be fine," she primly trilled as she staggered on semi-wobbly legs to the little heap of her clothes that sat on a small chest by the privacy screen. In her effort to gain distance from Rakash, Cordelia didn't notice when he pushed the blankets off. Nor did she notice how his eyes followed her.

With the light from the window through the thin material of her chemise, memories of her nude form kneeling beside him washed over Rakash's thoughts. A lump formed in his throat as heat raged in his center. When did it become so warm in the room? Taking a deep breath through his nose, he averted his gaze and stood.

"I'll wait for you below as you get ready," he said and headed for the stairs. She didn't seem to care or notice, he thought, as he descended to the safety below.

Sorting carelessly through her clothes, not really seeing what she was picking up, Cordelia listened to Rakash leave. Try as she might, she couldn't ignore heart thrumming noisomely in her chest.

Pedalling Towards Wellness: The Rise of Electric Cycles for Corporate Employees

Solutions for Sustainable Mobility

E-cycles serve as a solution to stay healthy, be active, and contribute positively to the environment and economy as well. For those who have enjoyed biking in their youth and are looking to pick up the habit again in adulthood, the ecycle has re-opened the door to a favourite childhood pastime that is enjoyable and a healthy way to be engaged in a fun activity. 

Emotorad manufactures our ebikes and safety gear cycling equipment in India. This is taking the country by storm and pushing the generation into a whole new sphere of easy commute and fun adventure. The size of the Global Electric Bike Market is predicted to reach USD 109.53 billion with a CAGR of 10.21% by 2030, and Emotorad is a name to reckon with at the forefront of global distribution. 

Ebiking is ideal for seasoned or newbie cyclists and provides a natural motivation to embark on a new adventure. Many corporate employees are becoming aware of electric bicycles by saying it on the road and through someone in their circles, and it is gaining momentum.

Many companies are trying to incentivise and encourage employees to use ebikes to promote their health by offering subsidies and freebies. Such corporate tie-ups are fruitful and help companies promote healthy minds and bodies in the office. They also aid in reducing the demand for parking spots in urban areas.

STAY GREEN AND ECO-FRIENDLY - PRESERVE THE ENVIRONMENT

E-cycles are a harbinger of environmental safety. They do their part in keeping the planet clean and bringing down pollution levels. They are the lone vehicles on the road, not contributing harmful carbon emissions. 

Ebikes can be charged easily, they are sturdy on rough terrain, and the controller and display panel are right there on the handlebar when you need the pedal assist to full throttle all the way! With the T-Rex Air in your corner, you can roll on wheels with no hassle, and getting the battery back to full charge takes only 4 hours, so it’s a perfect pick for your daily commute. 

KICKSTART A HEALTHY AND ADVENTUROUS LIFESTYLE

Comfortable riding is the best way to maximise your time and effort, and pushing the dimensions of your physical ability is necessary to keep fit in a healthy way. The ebike ticks all these goals and propels you into a dynamic daredevil on wheels. 

Ride around parks, to work, and through trails in beautiful spots around the city. 

Read our exciting blog to find more cool hidden cycle trails in and around Pune city.

Another popular reason to purchase an ebike is so that individuals can maintain their health at an optimum level. You have to think in terms of range and comfort when you’re going to work and find the bike that excels in that area.

BOOST BRAINPOWER AND MENTAL HEALTH

Movement allows the blood and oxygen in your system to move freely, and biking will assist you in checking this daily target off in a positive way. Pedalling through natural landscapes has a calming effect on the body and allows us to be fully present in the experience. Busy work schedules are the norm, but even 20 minutes a day on an ebike, you’re well within the realm of a good serotonin hit!

E-biking on a smooth road on a breezy day feels like riding in HD. Exposure to natural stimuli in different environments takes away routine monotony and gives rise to fresh perspectives. When in this state, the flow of positive chemicals in the body, like neurotransmitters and endorphins, provides joyful feelings and boosts well-being. Maintaining a positive mindset benefits us across all areas of life. 

Emotorad’s versatile ebikes feature compact and foldable frames, durable tyres, and LED screens, making them ideal for daily commutes.

TIME MANAGEMENT AND COST SAVINGS 

Getting stuck in traffic is a b!*&#! Cycling to work enables employees to cut down commute time and avoid sticky traffic congestion. E-bikes get you to your destination in the nick of time, and with rush hour traffic blocking off all main routes, e-bike riders have become efficient at nipping through nooks of the city to make their way through. 

Corporate employees using designated cycle trails will likely be on time to work as they can easily navigate traffic. The overall time and boost to your health is a compelling reason to follow this trend; not to mention the moolahs you save in cab or bus fares which add up to a pretty little chunk at the end of a month.

Each piece of equipment and every decorative choice was handpicked not only for its technical merit but for its contribution to an atmosphere where creativity knows no bounds. The essence of our studio lies in this meticulously curated collection, where functionality meets inspiration. In this opening statement, let’s explore the rationale behind the selection of key pieces that together form the lifeblood of PodLab Studios.

Sound and Vision

Central to our auditory experience is the Rode PodMic, chosen for its exceptional audio clarity, ensuring that every podcast episode we produce is of the highest quality. Complementing this auditory excellence, the Neewer cb60 RGB and Neewer 2pack 660 PRO RGB LED Video Light CRI 97+ illuminate our space not just physically but metaphorically, enhancing both the visual appeal of our recordings and the ambiance of our creative environment.

Ambiance and Aesthetics

The visual tone of PodLab Studios is set by the Art3d wall panels 12×12 black and StickGoo 3d wall panels white, which do more than just soundproofing; they add a layer of modern aesthetic that makes our studio not only a place to work but to thrive. The Padcaster Parrot Teleprompter Kit is another pivotal choice, streamlining our video production process and ensuring our message is delivered with precision.

Lighting and Adaptability

Light shaping is crucial, achieved through Neewer Foldable softbox diffuser and Neewer Larger Softbox diffuser, which soften and sculpt the light, creating the perfect mood for each session. The Neewer 2pk Triangle Wall mounting boom and Neewer 26” Lantern softbox offer versatility and control over our lighting, enabling us to capture every moment in its best light.

Ergonomics and Comfort

Acknowledging the long hours that go into podcast production, the Dreamsir Office Chair was selected for its ergonomic design, ensuring comfort throughout the creative process. Similarly, the Rode PSA1+ Boom Arm and accompanying Mic stand provide flexibility and ease of use, crucial for maintaining a fluid and dynamic recording environment.

Technical Excellence

The backbone of our studio’s technical setup includes the Rode Rodecaster Pro II for its unmatched audio mixing capabilities, and the Neewer 31.5” Motorized Camera Slider VS-80WC along with its updated version for phone compatibility, enhancing our video production with smooth, cinematic shots.

Camera Gear:

In the realm of podcasting, where audio content reigns supreme, the inclusion of high-quality video content can significantly amplify a podcast’s appeal and audience engagement. At PodLab Studios, we’ve taken our podcasting venture a step further by integrating cutting-edge video recording gear into our setup, notably the Canon R5 and R6 cameras. These cameras are lauded for their remarkable video quality, durability, and the ability to film for extended periods without overheating—a crucial feature for long-form content creation.

Canon R5 and R6: A Game-Changer for Podcasting

The Canon R5 and R6 have become indispensable tools in our studio for several reasons. Their ability to capture 4K video not only elevates the visual quality of our podcasts but also ensures that our content is future-proof. However, the standout feature for our podcasting needs is their capability to film for hours on end through a straight feed, thanks to the Neewer Dummy Battery for Canon. This continuous power solution eliminates the worry of batteries dying mid-recording, ensuring uninterrupted filming of even the most extended interviews or discussions.

Ensuring Uninterrupted Power and Efficiency

The Neewer Dummy Battery for Canon and the Neewer Np-FZ100 Dummy Battery For Sony a7, a7s III, a7 series are pivotal in achieving this feat. By providing a direct power supply from an AC outlet, these dummy batteries allow our cameras to keep rolling without the typical constraints of battery life. This setup is especially beneficial during live-streamed sessions or when recording back-to-back episodes, where stopping to change batteries is not an option.

Stabilizing and Protecting Our Gear

To complement these cameras, the SmallRig Camera Cable Clamp and Small Rig Camera Cage kits for both Canon and Sony models offer the dual benefits of protection and functionality. The cages safeguard our valuable cameras from the rigors of studio use while providing numerous mounting points for accessories—be it microphones, monitors, or lighting equipment. This setup not only enhances the versatility of our shooting arrangements but also ensures that our gear remains secure and stable throughout the recording process.

The Half Cage solution for Canon R5, R6, C presents a cost-effective alternative without compromising on functionality. It offers sufficient protection and accessory mounting options for creators on a budget, demonstrating that high-quality podcast video production can be accessible and practical.

Conclusion: Elevating Podcast Production to Cinematic Heights

As we continue to explore the possibilities within the podcasting and vidcasting sphere, the integration of such high-caliber equipment ensures that PodLab Studios remains at the forefront of digital storytelling, ready to captivate audiences with both our audio and visual narratives.

Lighting and Sliders:

In the immersive world of podcasting and vidcasting, the visual component plays a crucial role in captivating the audience’s attention. At PodLab Studios, we’ve meticulously crafted a lighting and camera setup that not only enhances the quality of our content but also imbues it with a cinematic feel. This setup includes a combination of stable camera positions and dynamic movement, achieved through the integration of state-of-the-art sliding gear and sophisticated lighting solutions.

Dynamic Visuals with Sliding Gear

Central to achieving this dynamic visual storytelling is the Neewer 31.5” Motorized Camera Slider VS-80WC model. This slider has been instrumental in adding fluid motion to our shots, creating a more engaging and professional feel. The ability to automate camera movements adds an extra layer of polish to our video content, making interviews and discussions more lively and visually appealing. However, in hindsight, I found myself wishing for the Updated Camera Slider (ER1-80), which offers the convenience of smartphone control over the traditional remote that relies on an older Sony battery. This updated model would have provided us with greater flexibility and ease of use, highlighting the importance of staying abreast with the latest advancements in technology.

Illuminating Content with Sophisticated Lighting

Lighting plays a pivotal role in setting the tone and mood of our content. The Neewer cb60 RGB and Neewer 2pack 660 PRO RGB LED Video Light CRI 97+ are cornerstone elements of our lighting setup, offering a vast spectrum of colors and intensities. These lights not only illuminate our subjects but also allow us to creatively play with colors, enhancing the visual appeal of our podcasts and creating distinctive looks for different segments or themes.

To further refine the quality of light and ensure it complements our subjects, we incorporate Neewer Foldable softbox diffuser and Neewer Larger Softbox diffuser. These diffusers soften the light, reducing harsh shadows and creating a more flattering appearance for our hosts and guests. The Neewer 2pk Triangle Wall mounting boom and Neewer 26” Lantern softbox add versatility to our setup, enabling us to position lights in optimal locations and control the direction and quality of light with precision.

Achieving Cinematic Quality

The combination of our sliding gear and sophisticated lighting setup allows us to produce content that transcends the typical podcast format, venturing into the realm of cinematic production. With two cameras mounted on stable platforms and one on the slider, we can capture a variety of angles and movements that keep the viewer engaged. This setup not only elevates the production value of our content but also sets PodLab Studios apart in the competitive landscape of digital content creation.

Conclusion: Crafting a Unique Visual Identity

Through the deliberate selection and integration of the Neewer Motorized Camera Sliders, RGB LED Video Lights, and various lighting diffusers, PodLab Studios has created a signature visual style that complements our audio content. This approach to podcast and vidcast production not only enhances the viewer’s experience but also reinforces our commitment to quality and innovation. As we continue to explore the possibilities within the visual domain, our goal remains to captivate our audience with content that is both informative and visually stimulating, solidifying PodLab Studios’ position as a leader in the digital storytelling space.

Complementing the Rodecaster Pro II are the Rode PodMics, renowned for their broadcast-quality sound. These dynamic microphones capture the nuances of the human voice with remarkable clarity and warmth, making them an ideal choice for podcasting. Mounted on Rode PSA1+ Boom Arms, these mics can be easily positioned for optimal sound capture, ensuring comfort and flexibility during recording sessions. This setup guarantees that our hosts and guests can focus on their conversation, free from the constraints of static microphones.

Enhancing the Experience with Headphones

Critical to monitoring the audio quality during recording and live streaming are professional-grade headphones. These headphones provide clear, detailed sound, allowing for precise adjustments to levels and mix on the fly. This immediate feedback loop is crucial for maintaining the high audio standards PodLab Studios is known for.

Blackmagic Design ATEM Mini Pro ISO: Revolutionizing Video Production

The inclusion of the Blackmagic Design ATEM Mini Pro ISO elevates our video production capabilities. This powerful video switcher not only enables live switching between multiple video sources, creating a dynamic viewing experience but also records each input as a separate file. This feature is invaluable, offering our clients the unique advantage of receiving raw files immediately after recording. Whether for post-production edits or multi-platform distribution, this level of flexibility and efficiency is unparalleled.

Seamless Integration with OBS Studio

When paired with software like OBS Studio or OBS Live, our setup transforms into a broadcasting powerhouse. These platforms allow for the incorporation of overlays, lower-thirds, and other graphics, further enhancing the professional quality of the podcast. The ability to stream live to various platforms while recording a high-quality version for later upload means that our content can reach audiences wherever they are, in the best possible format.

A Flexible Design For All Clients:

In crafting the PodLab Studios environment, nestled in the bustling west side of the metro-detroit area, a meticulous blend of sound engineering and design innovation was essential. The studio’s layout and aesthetic choices reflect a deep understanding of the dynamic nature of podcasting, where both audio clarity and visual appeal play pivotal roles in creating compelling content.

Striking a Balance Between Acoustic Excellence and Visual Appeal

Central to achieving this balance is the strategic deployment of acoustic foam across the studio. This not only ensures that sound quality remains pristine, minimizing echoes and unwanted noise but also contributes to the studio’s overall aesthetic. Complementing this are the visually striking StickGoo tiles and 3D wall panels, which add texture and depth to the studio’s visual landscape while enhancing its acoustic properties.

Innovative Design for Dynamic Spaces

The studio’s design incorporates 4-foot extension walls on each side of the 16-foot stage, equipped with hinges for adjustable positioning. This innovative feature allows for the creation of a more intimate recording environment or a broader, open space, depending on the podcast’s requirements. The flexibility offered by these movable walls exemplifies PodLab Studios’ commitment to accommodating a wide range of recording scenarios, from solo narrations to panel discussions.

Technological Integration for a Modern Edge

A highlight of the studio’s modern side is the incorporation of a 43″ LED 4K TV, strategically placed to facilitate virtual interactions via Zoom/FaceTime, making remote guests feel as though they’re physically present in the studio. Additionally, a 55″ TV is centered within this space, serving multiple functions—from displaying videos that complement the podcast’s content to showcasing a client’s logo, providing a customizable backdrop that aligns with the podcast’s branding.

Enhancing Studio Flexibility with Mobile Dividers

Further enhancing the studio’s versatility are mobile room dividers, featuring 7-foot-tall black curtains. These dividers are not just functional, aiding in acoustic separation between the studio’s modern and organic sections; they also offer the creative flexibility to open up the space. This design choice allows for a seamless visual contrast within a single video frame, showcasing the dynamic interplay between the studio’s black, technology-rich area and the clean, simplistic white side.

Preserving an Organic Feel on the White Side

The studio’s white side, adorned with 3D wall panels, is intentionally kept clean and simple. This design decision underscores a commitment to maintaining an organic feel, providing a stark contrast to the black, modern area. This contrast is not merely aesthetic but also functional, offering podcasters a choice of backdrop that can shift the tone and feel of their content.

Conclusion: A Symphony of Design and Functionality

PodLab Studios’ design is a testament to the power of thoughtful studio layout and aesthetic choices in enhancing podcast production. The harmonious blend of acoustic foam, StickGoo tiles, 3D wall panels, and mobile room dividers creates a space that is both acoustically sound and visually appealing. The innovative use of technology, from the integration of large LED TVs for virtual guest appearances to the flexibility offered by hinged extension walls, sets PodLab Studios apart. This environment not only meets the technical demands of podcast production but also inspires creativity and engagement, making it a premier destination for podcasters looking to elevate their content.

The juxtaposition of the modern, technology-rich side with the clean, organic white side of the studio allows for a dynamic visual contrast, catering to diverse creative visions.

Dynamic Visual Storytelling Through Lighting and Movement

The inclusion of Neewer lighting solutions and motorized camera sliders was a strategic choice aimed at elevating the visual storytelling aspect of podcasting. By integrating these elements, we’ve enabled a cinematic feel in our productions, where light not only illuminates but also sets the tone, and camera movement adds a layer of professionalism and dynamism to the content. This approach underscores our belief in the power of visual elements to complement and enhance the auditory experience of podcasts.

The Foundation of Quality Content: Superior Audio and Video Gear

At the heart of PodLab Studios’ operational ethos is the understanding that the quality of audio and video equipment, such as the Rodecaster Pro II, Rode PodMics, Rode PSA1+ Boom Arms, and Canon R5 and R6 cameras, fundamentally shapes the content’s reception.

“I’ll take the cot tonight and keep an eye on my kids. I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep, so a bed would be wasted on me,” he replied, soft and level. His tone scraped over Cordelia, making her feel foolish and worsening her blush. Before she could reply, he started about the room, gathering items and heading to his home proper. Behind him, he left Cordelia with her change of clothes. 

She glared after Rakash, conflicting feelings warring inside her. Gracious for the bed, but not for the way the option was foisted on her, she couldn’t help but mutter to herself, “If I had my own room, I wouldn’t need your bed.”

Knowing she didn't have the energy to argue, Cordelia sighed and got dressed. Rakash could win this one, her tired bones decided as she shuffled to his room.

—

When Cordelia awoke the next morning, it was to a pounding head, a lung wracking cough, and a fever. After a loud sniffle, she added ‘sticky congestion’ to her list of ailments. Trying to ignore the agitation of being ill, she shifted and her eyes slid around the room.

Upon entering Rakash’s room last night, she found a rough-hewn desk and chair a top of pelt-like rug and books in an array of amateurish to professional binding. She didn't know if the books belonged to Karina or if they were legitimately bound Trollish texts and her exhaustion had outweighed her curiosity. There had also been a large fireplace, attached to the one in the main cabin room, she thought.

It took her a few minutes to locate the stairs that led to the mezzanine-like partial floor above, where his more bed and dressing area resided.

On the left side of the bed, morning light squeezed between panels of a curtained window. A large, foldable privacy screen sectioned off a small area of the room, flanked by a heavy, crudely made armoire. Her eye caught on the occasional tunic or discarded sock, reminding her she was in Rakash’s domain. As if the scent lingering in his blankets wasn’t reminder enough.

Vague snatches of last night danced through her mind. Her run-in with the thrall, the magic that had sizzled from her fingers, Rakash’s confessional backstory.

Cordelia rubbed her fingers against the blankets swaddling her, as if she could erase the phantom sensations still burning there. While getting the medicine for Ebra, she had quietly sworn to not indulge Rakash, flirtatiously or carnally. He had disappointed her. She didn’t bed people who disappointed her. Or that’s what she told herself.

Avoiding the thoughts lurking at the edges of her thoughts, she considered whether she should attempt to venture down the stairs, despite her body’s preemptive twinges, and to the kitchen for food.

“How’re you feeling?” As if summoned by her consciousness and appetite, Rakash appeared from the stairway with a tray gripped in his hands. The shadows under his eyes had returned, making his features as grim-faced as the first time they met.

Strangely, something felt something was softer about him. Though that might just be thanks to her illness.

“Peachy,” Cordelia croaked, her throat aching. Uncomfortable heat, unconnected to her illness, crept into her cheeks as she remembered her impromptu bath last night.

Rakash brought the tray closer, setting it on the bedside table with a soft clack. Without warning, he pressed his palm to her forehead. It took Cordelia a breathless beat to understand what he was doing just before he hummed in consternation, “I was worried this would happen.”

“What?” As he stepped back, relieving her of his cooler palm, Cordelia eyed the offerings on the tray. Thick greyish glop steamed in the bowl. She presumed it was oatmeal or gruel. A mug with a greenish yellow hue that was hopefully tea. A piece of toasted bread and - amusingly - a small bowl of fruit sauce.

Faintly, she wondered if a trolling or three had assisted on this breakfast. If so, then they were all feeling well. That eased an unexpected knot in her chest.

Also among the food was her bound journal. An odd offering, she thought, before she remembered. It was the journal with the proportions for the medication scrawled in it. Rakash picked it up, waggling it in the air gently. “Tell me the measurements.”

She blinked up at him, not quite understanding before realization hit her. Ah… it waswritten in Common, wasn’t it?

That didn't explain why he wanted to know about the medicine now. Her eyebrows furrowed further, a slow mounting dread sinking into her chest. “Why? Your kids are fine, aren’t they?”

“For you.” Rakash tipped the journal closer to her head but stopped shy of lightly bopping her on the forehead.

Oh, that was why? Cordelia swallowed down a sigh of relief, that cold dread dissipating. Not even looking at Rakash, she dismissively waved her hand. “I’ll be fine. It's just a cold.”

Rakash narrowed his eyes, his features darkening for a second. He supposed he should be relieved she was back to being obstinate, but her tone rubbed him the wrong way.

Exploring the Charm and Practicality of Tiny Houses in Australia

In recent years, the concept of tiny houses has gained significant traction around the world, offering a simplified and sustainable alternative to traditional housing. Australia, with its diverse landscapes and a growing interest in minimalist living, has embraced the tiny house movement with enthusiasm. From the rugged Outback to the coastal cities, tiny houses are making a big impact on the way Australians think about homeownership and lifestyle.

The Rise of Tiny Houses in Australia

The tiny house movement in Australia has its roots in the broader global trend of downsizing and simplifying. As the cost of living rises and urban areas become more congested, Australians are increasingly seeking alternatives that allow them to live more sustainably and affordably. Tiny houses, typically ranging from 100 to 500 square feet, offer a solution to these challenges.

One of the driving forces behind the popularity of tiny houses is their eco-friendly nature. Many tiny house owners in Australia are drawn to the idea of reducing their environmental footprint. With smaller spaces come reduced energy consumption, less waste, and a greater emphasis on sustainable living practices. These eco-conscious choices align with Australia's commitment to environmental conservation and reducing carbon emissions.

Design and Innovation

Tiny houses in Australia showcase a remarkable blend of creativity and functionality. Architects and builders have risen to the challenge of designing compact spaces that maximize comfort and utility. Innovative features such as foldable furniture, multi-functional rooms, and clever storage solutions are common in tiny house designs. The goal is to create a space that feels open and comfortable while still meeting the practical needs of daily life.

Australian tiny houses often feature off-grid capabilities, allowing residents to live independently of traditional utilities. Solar panels, composting toilets, and rainwater harvesting systems are common additions, reflecting the desire for self-sufficiency and a reduced reliance on external resources. These features make tiny houses particularly appealing in the vast and remote areas of Australia where traditional infrastructure may be limited.

Regulatory Challenges

While the tiny house movement is gaining momentum, it has not been without its challenges, particularly in terms of regulations and zoning laws. Many local governments in Australia have specific requirements for minimum dwelling sizes and may not have clear guidelines for tiny houses. This has led to hurdles for those wishing to embrace this lifestyle, with legal uncertainties posing obstacles to the widespread adoption of tiny houses.

However, some regions in Australia have started to recognize the benefits of tiny houses and are working to adapt regulations accordingly. Pilot projects and trials are underway to assess the feasibility of incorporating tiny houses into existing communities. Advocacy groups are also actively engaging with policymakers to encourage the development of supportive regulations that would make it easier for Australians to embrace tiny living.

Community and Lifestyle

Tiny house communities are sprouting up across Australia, fostering a sense of camaraderie and shared values among like-minded individuals. These communities often emphasize sustainability, collaboration, and a connection to nature. Living in close proximity to neighbors encourages a strong sense of community, challenging the notion that bigger houses are necessary for a fulfilling social life.

The tiny house lifestyle in Australia is not just about downsizing; it's about reevaluating priorities. Many Australians are attracted to the idea of shedding excess belongings and living with only what is truly essential. This shift in mindset often leads to a more intentional and meaningful way of life, where experiences and relationships take precedence over material possessions.

Challenges and Considerations

While the tiny house movement has gained considerable momentum, it's essential to acknowledge the challenges and considerations associated with this lifestyle. Limited space requires careful thought about what possessions are truly necessary, and the reality of living in close quarters with others may not suit everyone. Additionally, the potential for legal and regulatory hurdles can be a significant deterrent for those considering the transition to tiny living.

Another consideration is the adaptability of Tiny Houses Australia for families. While couples and individuals may find the compact living spaces suitable, families with children may face more significant challenges. Designing tiny houses that accommodate the needs of a growing family, both in terms of space and functionality, is an ongoing area of exploration within the movement.

Conclusion

Tiny houses in Australia represent a unique blend of innovation, sustainability, and a desire for a simpler, more intentional way of life. Despite the challenges posed by regulations and traditional perceptions of homeownership, the movement continues to gain popularity as more Australians recognize the benefits of downsizing and living with a smaller environmental footprint.

As the tiny house movement evolves, it will be fascinating to witness how it shapes the future of housing in Australia. Whether embraced as a permanent living solution or as a means of escape for a weekend retreat, tiny houses have undeniably left an indelible mark on the Australian housing landscape, challenging conventional notions of what a home should be.
