Life of Radio Planning

My project is still in the early stages, but after a discussion with my director, I have a much greater idea of where it is going to go. The original plan of having the documentary going up to an hour has been scrapped to aim for more of a thirty minute marker to meet more appropriate expectations given the amount of time available for this project. The interviews are going to be a major part of the project, while the amount of history covered in the documentary will likely be focused on less than the interviews and narration of working in a station.

There is a lot of things that can be done in the field of radio, but there are factors such as the FCC that do keep certain things in check. Stations may be commercial, or non-commercial, there are certain things you can't say live on radio, and there are a variety of different jobs in this field of work; more than just going live and music, and these are some factors I plan to cover in the documentary.

My research is far from over, and there are many more things that I know I need to cover for the final project, but I know that I have somewhere to go with this project. I feel like this could be something that provides education, thought, and even a more personal aspect to a field that is mostly reliant on sound.
