Radio Programming Director Guide
Learn the intricacies of Radio Programming
Description
Radio is a personal medium...a one-to-one medium.
Surprised? Notice how you consume radio the next time you put one on. And that's what pulled me to this medium. Even after the advent of CD players, Satellite radio, MP3 players, Cloud based music services, radio continues to connect with its ardent followers and enthral them.
- Radio Programming is more an art than science.
- And this course can safely be viewed as a 'radio art' appreciation course.
- I am not here to ‘teach’ radio, cause I don't think creativity or originality can be taught.
- The idea is to be open to experiences and let real life experiences guide your creativity on-air.
- This course is about harnessing these 'life lessons' and put in Radio.
So, who is this course for?
