packages - you are a researcher

(1) You research the subject and research the audience.

(2)  You work out the treatment.

You make a story-board. What are you going to put into the package? The HOW? WHAT? WHERE? WHY? questions. The nubby-nub of the package. STORY-BOARD - story-telling is popular at the present. Is your package telling a story? Does it follow through one person' story? A story through one person's eyes?

(3) You do your planning and your housekeeping. How to gather the material? When? How to get interviews? Your equipment ..... when to get into production with the material you have gathered...... (BBC) in a studio with a Studio Manager? Or on your own computer?

YOU PLAN - your booking in the Radio Studio (if you are a radio student on a course). YOU PLAN - your files on the course computers (if you are a radio student on a course).

Radio Course Computers - you make sure you have cleared old files. Check that the hard drive does not crash because it is full.

BBC local radio has a shared computer network is called RADIOMAN. It supplies the shared areas - but when they get full, they crash. People leave files on there that should have been wiped.

(4) You work out your BUDGET and EXPENSES.

(5) RISK ASSESSMENT FORM you fill this out. The types of hazards in recording activity. If there is a problem in identifying risk - you refer to the manager (teacher).
