The talk show - the most comprehensive production we've done in the program (so far 🥲) - went great! Our group really came together so well in the end through everything and pulled it off!
Some pictures of everyone involved - couple group shots, our two hosts, our prof, and the production team!

Ford complained how people receiving social assistance are "sitting on their couch and watching Flintstones"?
I'm sorry, is this the 80s?
Waiting for him to tell us to get a job by walking into the business and asking the manager for one.

Woke up to about 10cm of snow!
Luckily it's pretty light and the plows have already gone down the streets.

Here I am at the college...on a Saturday 😅
We're having an open house for our program for high school students to get a glimpse of what it's like, so a bunch of us in the radio program will be running the station today!
I'll be the Sports anchor today!

The finished product!
A few edits here and there to make a clean sound - putting my voiceovers at the right spots and lowering the track volume while it's going.
Thanks to anyone who's watched this - let me know if you enjoyed it and whether you want any other behind-the-scenes looks!

Step 4: Placing the hook! There's a bit of an art to making things sound 'right'. The part I demonstrate here is relatively easy, but there can often be some subtle touches needed to make things 'flow'.

Inspired by a classmate who recorded their own creative process, I've recorded a series of videos, demonstrating the creative process I use to produce Station IDs!
This is the first step - writing the ad! Hope you enjoy this behind-the-scenes journey!
