Rendered (formerly Destination DIY) was an independently produced American radio program based in Portland, Oregon.

Created and hosted by Julie Sabatier, the show explores do-it-yourself ideas from a wide range of perspectives. Rendered centers around creative people as well as the processes and resources used to create various skills, communities, and ideas.[1]

History

Rendered began as a half-hour monthly show titled DIY, Portland on KBOO Community Radio in 2006. When it began airing on Oregon Public Broadcasting in 2010, it changed its named to Destination DIY and hour-long running time.[2] In September 2014, the show joined the national podcast and radio show network Maximum Fun.[3] In February 2015, the show changed its name to Rendered.[4] The last episode appeared 8/31/2015 . [5]

Format

Each episode features edited interviews with individuals, connected by narrative commentary from Sabatier. Topics include gender and the economy, as well as more traditional DIY topics, such as construction of tiny houses.[6][7][8] Sabatier told Portland Monthly magazine that each minute of the show takes about an hour to create, from recording interviews to editing the episode's final cut.[9]

Rendered broadcasts full shows and show segments in the Pacific Northwest through NPR's Northwest News Network and nationwide through Public Radio Exchange.[10][11] The show is also available as a free podcast.[12] Rendered segments air on several radio stations, including Oregon Public Broadcasting, Austins's KUT, and San Francisco's KALW.[11][13][14]

Response

The Portland Mercury described the format of Rendered in an article about Portland podcasts: "Destination DIY goes beyond the crafts 'n' home repair often associated with the term 'DIY' to encompass anything people can do themselves—from home funerals and taxidermy to representing yourself in court. Moreover, the show maintains an artful balance of general interest content and local events."[15] In January 2011, Sunset named Sabatier "Portland's DIY Queen" and wrote that the show "taps into the zeitgeist that is red hot in the West."[1] Radio Survivor reported on Destination DIY's crowd-funding strategy in 2013 and described the show as a "polished production on par with a national public radio program."[16]

Portland television station KGW has reported on two Rendered "Makin' It" parties.[17] Sustainable Business Oregon also reported on the "Makin' It" parties and featured an interview with Sabatier.[18]

Funding

Rendered is primarily listener-funded. In 2011, the show funded a year-long season with a Kickstarter campaign that raised $9,750.[19] In 2013, the show relaunched as a monthly podcast after raising $14,801 in an IndieGoGo campaign.[20] The show also lists several business and non-profit sponsors and received Regional Arts & Culture Council grants in 2011 and 2013.[21][22][23]
