WHS Radio

My friend has been busy finding donations! Check out this email she just sent to us:

… The living end and Grinspoon’s managers are sending you stuff .. Warners Music are also sending you a mix of CD’s, have also emailed several other managers to send you CD’s and emailed a friend who knows ‘everyone and anyone’ in the music biz and asked him to get all the musicians and managers he knows to send you stuff as well. So expect some weird and cool music over the next few weeks …. I am also going to do a bit of a publicity thing, and will have your details for any contacts (newspapers etc) if anyone decides it may make a cool story … oh and Liberation records will send stuff as well, am friends with Johnny Diesel’s manager and she has asked them to send stuff to you ….

Its amazing how people help each other.

Sorry I wasnt there to help you with the last day of planning before your big first show. It couldnt be helped.

After reading your wiki updates, it appears that you are mostly organised and have choosen who will be in the studio on Friday. I have arranged for two seniors to be in the studio to help you out, they were technical radio guys last year.

Heres the show’s page: 22-9-06

Perhapes a Playlist template will be helpful

Well done team. Hopefully your first meeting was a success; but I guess only you can judge that. I found the noise level a bit loud and that one incident was quite disturbing. But overall I enjoyed the experience.

Most importantly we need to be ready for our show next Friday. This is my take on the meeting outcomes:

• Marketing will let everyone know its on – poster, intranet, assembly
• Technical will make sure everything works – test broadcast, training
• Programming will figure out what will be broadcast – DJ’s, content, playlist

Im happy to offer advice or help out on any of these tasks.

Gentle reminder: could everyone please delete the voting infomation from their personal page.

Great lesson today! Our online tools were introduced, youo went shopping, you joined teams, and you nomiated captains.

Our captains and vice captains are:

• Progamming - Cameron & Julian
• Technical – Phillip and Kalle
• Marketing – Shane and Jake

Now that we have our teams we can get on with the real stuff. Lets do a show next Friday!

Gentle reminder: follow the wiki guidelines when writing.

The radio organisation is moving along smoothly. Our last couple of brainstorming lessons have been successful but now is the time for action. Next lesson we will create some teams, so have a think about how your skills can be most useful.

As always, please remember that what you publish is on show to the whole world. So act in a responsible and safe way that would make us all proud.

We will use this blog for recent news. The wiki is for planning and storing information.
