Radio Production Session 2 - Editing Your Links

Hopefully you've SAVED your links properly as mp3s or wavs and can open them up in Adobe Audition. You now need to lace together your links with your music, as well as create jingles/stabs.
You also need to leave me some EVIDENCE of this process so every now and then please screenshot what you're doing and save images in a folder (I'll figure out how to turn this into a production diary).

REMEMBER - you can EDIT individual tracks in 'Edit View', you can put together various tracks in 'Multitrack' view. Have a play with effects and see what occurs.

If you need help editing tell me and I'll come and help. These videos will be helpful also.

Have a look at the following sites - there's sample running orders, each different. Give yourself a flavour of what running orders contain and what they look like. You're going to create one for a half-hour of YOUR show. As you can see they all contain different things depending on how detailed they ...

Radio Planning Session 10 - Timeslot And Music

The penultimate part of your planning documentation will tell me what's the ideal time-slot for your show and also what kind of music you'll be playing. Obviously the two are related - if you're broadcasting in the daytime you're not going to be able to play music with adult-content or swearing in it - if you're broadcasting at night your music choices can depart from the daytime playlist for your suggested station, and include songs that are more specialist/obscure. Complete this part as follows. 1. Open up a new Blogpost. Call it 'RADIO PLANNING: TIMESLOT AND MUSIC' 2. Add the heading. 'SCHEDULING' and tell me, even if you have already - what time of the day will your show be broadcast and why? How will that timeslot reach your target audience? What will your target audience be doing at that time - will they be able to hear your show? 3. Add the heading 'PLAYLIST ' and give me a list of at least 5, and anything ...
