Radio and Recording

Having your script ready before-hand

When you're writing your script, make sure you have no grammatical or tongue-twisting errors that will put you in a position of feeling ackward.When including other people as well into your recording, make sure they are the right choice(great sense of idea, doesn't hesitate,etc.) As you're script is ready before-hand, have it either informing or entertaining for your audience not to get bored with it.

Vocializing your voice

To do so, just do some vocal exercises so that your voice won't give out or making squealing sounds while recording. Your audience doesn't want to be hearing a mouse on radio. Also to mention, make sure your background isn't to loud where you'll hear wierd unknown sounds. The place to record best is in a room filled with cushion and no echos.

Repeat your script before performing record

It best to repeat your script so that you won't have any slurs or spits. Practice makes perfect! So, repeat your script so you will already know what to say before-hand.

When ready to perform your recording

Please remain calm. While ready to record, stand a hand away from the microphone so no one will hear you spitting or blowing air into the microphone.

Conduct a good posture and confidence.

This will help, trust me! When adding a perfect stand posture, it gives your voice a smoother recording. It also shows you have lots of confidence in your recording.

If recording doesn't turn out well?

Don't worry about it! Everyone makes mistakes but too much is too many. Just take a breathe and try again.

As you're done.

This is the final ending, you finally got it right. High five! But, it's not over yet, you still have some editing to do.

Just to make things sound and look more professional, make sure you have the right equipment. You can also go online to find a editor site for your recording for FREE.

The Perfect Recording

Last week in my honors digital class, we had a speaker come to class to talk about radio and recording. I thought this was really interesting. To learn the new things about radio and how to present yourself to record. You have to write a script before hand with a good voice. This meant no studdering, speaking low, and speaking smoothly. With little pauses between your words, you have to be perfectly recorded. As a recorder, it seems like it takes a lot of hard work. With buying new equipment, hosting the radio daily and early, I think it would actually take a person some time to get use to it. I guess some people are really born for it, it sounds like a interesting job.
