Just because we are all stuck at home doesn't mean we can't create some cool radio!

Let’s Record Some Radio Shows!
While we all can’t get together at WLTL for the time being, that doesn’t mean we can’t produce some radio shows together. Beginning soon, Mr. Thomas will begin producing a radio show to air on WLTL from his house, but he needs your help! He needs you to be the DJs for this show.
Isolated Together, Episode #1: My Favorite Songs
To be involved in this radio show, all you need to do is record a DJ break where you front sell your favorite song (Reminder: Front sell means to talk about the song before it plays on the radio). Tell us why the song is your favorite (or one of your favorites) and then introduce the song. I imagine this can be done in about 30 seconds, but if you go longer that’s alright too.
Need an example? Listen to one from Mr. Thomas on Soundcloud. https://soundcloud.com/wltlradio/isolated-together-dj-break-example-thomas
Record this DJ break on any device you have. The easiest way to do it is likely as a voice memo on your phone, but you can also do it on a computer too.
Thinking to yourself, how do I make this sound good? Our friends at NPR have some tips for you in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfgbtBBumjo
Record your break and email the mp3 file to me by Friday, March 20 at cthomas@lths.net and Mr. Thomas will edit it all together and get it on WLTL. If you contribute, I will also send you an email letting you know when the show will air. If it comes in after the deadline it’s cool...it may just be used on a later show.
Questions? Reach out to cthomas@lths.net. This is open to my students in my media courses, but also anyone involved in WLTL as a club too! In fact, let’s open it to everyone! Just be sure to say as part of your DJ break your name and where you are from in addition to telling us about your favorite song!
