Akademi Radio 2007

It was such an interesting course to attend. Must say thanks to my sis, Erlin, who suggested me to attend the Akademi Radio course in March 2007.

It was really an eye-opening to learn from the professionals, i.e. AB Shaik, Isadhora and many others. AB Shaik did a marvellous job as the main trainer, sharing his experiences in hosting events. I particularly like a segment, where AB explained on how emcees used different tone level of voice when hosting vis-a-vis normal speaking.

The five-day night programme, Mon-Fri 7.30-10.30pm, saw us "hosting" our own Radio Channel on Day 4. We had to come out with our own scripts, radio format etc. Recording was done in either the Warna 942 or Ria 897 stations, assisted by the various deejays on duty.

Day 5 was the certification day and snippets of the recordings were played. AB, Hassan Salleh and Isadhora provided useful pointers on how we could improve on using our voice.
