| Description | In this course, we will learn how to produce music pieces for
public radio and podcasts. We will learn the basics of radio
journalism, including reporting, recording, scriptwriting,
production, and the effective use of music and ambient sound.
Students will produce two music-related pieces - a vox pop and a
final project in a style consistent with public radio. Students
will gain a working knowledge of sound editing techniques using
Adobe Audition. In addition to workshopping students' projects
in class, there will be reading and listening assignments that
introduce students to creative public radio pieces focusing on
music. Students can borrow digital recorders, microphones, and
other equipment from Media Services. Prior college-level
coursework in media production, writing, or ethnography is
strongly recommended. Keywords:journalism, radio, podcasting, music, sound |
