Plan Your Broadcast

Plan Your Broadcast:

Step 1

Plan what you’ll say in the episode intro and outro; plan what you want to cover in each segment; state you name (first name only) and the topic of your podcast. For example, my name is Rockin Randy, today I will be discussing the MTV music awards.

Step 2

In the intro, you also need to introduce your partner as well as all topics that will be covered during your broadcast. For example: In today’s show, Ryan Reader will be discussing the new Harry Potter Book and Hurricane Harry will talk about the weather.

Step 3

Using all of the craft lessons learned in class, you will creatively write each episode of your broadcast. While you are writing, keep your audience in mind at all times. Ask yourself, “How can I most effectively and creatively get my message across to my listeners?

Step 4

Write an “outro” that will leave a lasting impression on your audience

Step 5

After you’re finished your script, spend time practicing in front of friends and family members. When the time comes to record your podcast, you will shine like the star your are!

Additional Things to Consider:

1.  The name of the broadcast you are creating

2.  A slogan or catchy repeated phrase that will linger in the mind of your audience.

3.  A creative broadcasting name that is catchy and relates to your topic. For example: Fitness Freddy.

4.  The type of music and sound effects that you would like to use for your podcast.

5.  Always, always allow your personality to shine through in your broadcast and most of all-Have Fun!
