The first two weeks have granted me with an insight into how Triple R operates and also a sense of the content they aim to provide – diverse, eclectic and innovative. The sense I get about Triple R is that whilst there is a program structure, you could tune in any time and hear interesting an informative content that may not be otherwise heard on mainstream radio, or other media platforms.
The highlight for me, was being able to visit the home of Triple R, which encompasses all the studios and office space. As I was sitting on the stage area I kept thinking about all the videos I had seen of performers that I had watched at the RRR 40 Years exhibition the previous weekend. To me this really emphasises the role the station plays in the community. Although I had not previously been involved with Triple R, I and I’m sure most of us would be familiar with the station and it’s involvement including the annual Community Cup.
My main goals for this studio include:
Improving my presenting skills.
Developing professional interview methods including research.
Make content that I am proud of and can use in the future.
