| Description | In this course, students learned how to produce music pieces for public radio and podcasts, including reporting, interviewing, scriptwriting, production, and the effective use of music and ambient sound. Students produced two music-related pieces - a two-minute vox pop and a 3.5- to 4-minute final project (documentary feature or an album review) in a style consistent with public radio. Students gained a working knowledge of sound editing and mixing techniques using Adobe Audition. In addition to workshopping students' projects in class, students were responsible for completing reading and listening assignments that introduced an array of creative public radio pieces on music. Students were also responsible for writing short responses to six radio pieces over the course of the semester. |
