Vodcasts, or Video on Demand, are offered in a similar manner to podcasts, by requiring syndication feeds to distrubute. iTunes is a popular place to host your vodcast as it allows for playback of local and streamed video. To get started, you will need:

A server connected to the Internet, and the faster the better
A website that can host the XML file in order to allow iTunes to access it
QuickTime Pro 7

There are detailed instructions available on the Internet for creating your own vodcast, but in short, the steps are to:

Create your movie
Compress your movie
Put the movie on the server
Create an XML file
Place the XML file
Test the file in your browser
Check the file in iTunes
Announce your vodcast to all interested parties
