CO2067 Radio Production and Programming

This course provides is an overview of radio broadcast history, including past and present technologies, as well as standards of station organization and management through lectures, guests, field trips, and activities. In addition, there will be a focus on FCC regulations and radio’s cultural impact. There will be several hands-on group projects with students gaining experience in both technical and “on air” roles. Students will have the opportunity to develop pre-recorded radio content by becoming familiar with the studio sound board and microphones, and learn some basics of audio production such as editing, dubbing, and sound effects. They will work on scriptwriting and interviewing as well as practice various techniques employed by radio announcers such as pacing, voice dynamics, breathing, pronunciation, and inflection. Some of these pre-recorded productions will be geared to be aired through WLMC, Landmark College Radio. Credits: 3
