Life of Radio Introduction



When I first entered the communications department, I was not entirely sure what I was going to end up doing. A lot of what I wanted to focus on was film oriented, however, after a few semesters of doing things such as the radio practicum course and an internship at a radio station, I found a field that I was capable of doing well in. When I saw on the syllabus that a documentary was an option for a final project, I figured I could make it a radio documentary talking about what it is like to work in the field of radio, with some history to go with it.

A lot of work will need to be done on Adobe Audition for the project to be completed, but it is nothing that is incapable of being done. The documentary will not only feature narration but also segments of discuss with people who are working in radio, and I can come in contact with these people through the Shepherd radio station, as well as the one I did the internship for in Martinsburg. The length I am looking to aim for is between half-an hour to an hour; which is the usual length span for a single documentary.

I really want to be able to start a career in radio after I have finished with my final semester, and I feel something like this may be a ticket to being noticed in the field.
