Pirate Radio 1

Remote-Learners: Don't forget to watch the video at the bottom of this page to see how to do this Techttoo at home.

Techttoo description: first oft -- pirate radio has noting to do with pirates! It is just a term used to indicate a non-licensed radio station. For this techttoo you will learn how to produce your own radio ID's and Sweepers that will be broadcasted to the middle-school courtyard during lunch.

Introduction

To earn this Techttoo you must...

  1. Make sure GarageBand is installed on our MacBook, if not, then take it to the tech department.
  2. Produce your own pre-recorded radio show that is at least 40 minutes long. (about 12 songs and at least 5 sweepers or station IDs)
  3. You can only use songs from the folder below. (We are a top 40 radio station for pop-music)
  4. Add something interesting to your show like an interview, trivia, jokes, interesting facts. You should say something between each song. (Use the book listed at the bottom of this page for ideas!) YOU SHOULD SPEAK AT LEAST 5 TIMES DURING YOUR SHOW. Each time you speak it should be less than 30 seconds.
  5. NO DEAD-AIR! (when there is no sound) So you need to overlap songs, bummers, and your talking.​
  6. Export your show from GarageBand as an MP3.
  7. Create a Proof of Work video.
