Radio And Podcast Drama Production

The focus is on professional ‘real world’ practice, with students learning valuable skills in idea generation, commissioning, and pitching. Practical advice on scripting, recording, directing voice talent, and use of music and sound effects are provided, with training taking place in the Parkside building’s state-of-the-art radio studios. Post productions skills in audio editing and mixing are also covered in this intensive, hands-on programme. By the end of the course, you will have produced a ‘pilot’ episode or showreel to demonstrate your own radio or podcast drama.
