by McAdam, Ronan 26 Sep '13

26 Sep '13

Hello everyone! It hasn't even started yet but this term is already looking like an action-packed one. FRESHERS FAIR On Tuesday we will be tucked away in a corner of Metric; come along and help us make a lot of noise. Bring your tunes and funky personalities - let's show off the best of ICRadio to the new kids. DO A SHOW Contact Kier at programming(a)icradio.com<mailto:programming@icradio.com> and book a slot for the new year.

LIVE TUNAGE IC Radio is hosting live music at both Mingles (including the Alternative one) and the Freshers Ball. Come along and have a lil' boogie; the bigger the crowd, the more our name spreads. SUSTAIN Heard enough Taylor Swift? Do you never, ever, ever want to hear that song again? Send in any sustain requests to music(a)icradio.com<mailto:music@icradio.com>; Eamonn will be busy updating it with a more diverse track-list, make sure he doesn't miss out a top choone. The following announcements are for the real radio keenos: SRA CONFERENCE: STUDENT RADIO FESTIVAL Another industry networking event, different to the SRA Training event which I emailed about last week. For all the information on future SRA networking events, training and nights-out join the Facebook group. That way, I don't have to mention them in emails :D https://www.facebook.com/groups/studentradio.lea/614233248622534/?notif_t=g… INTERN PROJECT JOB THING If you have a couple of hours to spare and really want to get involved in some more radio, check this link for information on a place at (the award-winning) Fun Kids Radio http://notes.mattdeegan.com/post/62152361847/folder-media-fun-kids-interns That's it for this week my friends.

Your HoP needs YOU! for Mentoring, Promo Photos and Freshers' Activities
by Head of Programming 29 Aug '13

29 Aug '13

Hello there, I'm your new Head of Programming and your Head of Publicity. There are several opportunities coming up for existing presenters, though if you're not interested, please just respond and answer for me this one question, then you can safely ignore the rest of the email: *Thinking back to your first ever show, would having an experienced presenter sitting with you and able to help out have been useful, or would it just have made you feel awkward and under pressure?* Mentoring Still reading? Great! If enough people think it's a good idea, we'll be giving new presenters the option to have an experienced mentor join them for their first show. If you have any presenting experience and would like to do this, let me know: new presenters will still have had full training, so you'll just be there for moral support and to help out if they mess up, and it'll take as little as one hour of your time. Photo Shoots Secondly, we would like some photos of presenters at work in the studio or generally having a good time for promotional materials. I also want one of a row of presenters bending over in front of a camera for one of our freshers recruitment campaign posters (there's a good reason for that, honest!), so if anyone doesn't mind that being plastered all over campus, or if you just want to be in one of the less risqué photos, let myself or Max Hunter, our technical manager and photographer, know. He'll be back in late September, but getting those done in the first couple of weeks of term would be no problem, either. Freshers' Week Finally, I'd like to get the shedule populated before term starts, and have people begin presenting in Freshers' Week so our incoming new students have something to listen to - so get your requests in early for prime slots. Do you have any ideas for special shows or events for that week? If not, I'm sure George has some that he'll need help with! I'm going to End of the Road festival over the weekend, so I'll respond to emails and sort out scheduling on a first-come-first-serve basis on Monday. Regards, Keir Little, Head of Programming
