Radio Production Blog - News day 2 - South Coast Radio

This news day was a lot more successful. Leads for stories were chased up much more quickly and suitable audio clips were created for each story. The story choices and running order were good but due to an editorial decision an important story was missed. The first bulletin was a little long and could have done without the inclusion of travel. Again, the sports desk was very successful. In the second hour we included the story we had overlooked but again due to the editor’s decision didn’t run it top where it belonged. Again the desks were good but we were a little pushed for time in studio.

Personally, I was happy with my role as a journalist in getting vox pops for several of the stories and again as producer in organising and putting the audio together in the running order. I also voiced a story and was happy with this as my tone and style suited the piece.
