How
To Produce and Record Your Own Internet Radio Show
by Demetria Zinga, M.S.
Everyone
knows internet Radio is big these days…just
do a Google search on “internet radio”,
and you’ll see what I mean.
So let’s say you have an interest in producing
your own internet radio program…
How do you go about doing this?
1.) Your
first step is always to determine the purpose of your show. What
are your interests, hobbies, skills, and passions in life that will drive
you into a real commitment to offer valuable information to your listeners?
Please, whatever you do, don’t start an internet
radio program on a topic that you aren’t interested in. Not
only will you bore your listeners, but it wouldn’t be long before
you got pretty bored yourself. No matter how unpopular the subject may
be, if it interests you and you have a real passion for it, go with it!
I guarantee there is someone else out there who is looking for a radio
program on the topic you’ve chosen. Who is your target audience?
2.) You
should also determine the format of your show. How many segments
will you have in your program? Will there be sponsors and ads?
3.) Along with determining the format of your show you should develop an outline
for production. As a producer, you are in control of how your
program flows from one clip to the next. Arrange your program in such
a way that makes sense to the listeners.
4.) Next
gather all your media for the radio show. This could be audio
clips, narration, promotional ads, interviews…whatever you desire
to include in your program.
5.) Arrange your audio clips within your sound editing software program in the order as you wish for them to appear in your program.
6.) Add
any special effects between audio clips such as “fade-ins/fade-outs”.
7.) Once
you’ve mastered the whole show to perfection, you’ll want
to export the final product as an mp3 file, which is
one of the most compressed sound file formats you can use on the web.
8.) Now
using your FTP client, simply upload your show to the web
9.) Check
the URL to which your file is uploaded to make sure the sound
file is audible and is playing back on the web.
10.) As
you become more adapted to these first 9 steps, you will later begin to
see how that “streaming” your show is important…and
you may also want to learn more about the power of podcasting…
But for
now…spread the word about your radio show to family, friends, and
the whole world…and give yourself a round of applause!
You’ve produced your own internet radio show!
