Co-presenting a Radio Show

Before the final show , I have decided to explain what experience I have learnt about creating interesting presenting. I will be co-presenting, and with this comes some obstacles and challenges. The first is  that when the group ran through the script I created , the entire presentation felt stilted and rehearsed , something radio should definitely avoid. With this discovery , I redrafted this script , and instead only scripted the introduction and conclusion , with pointers for everything else. This allowed me to remind myself of the topics , without becoming entirely reliant on what I had written. In hindsight , I think during the rehearsals , the group were so busy trying to read the script , that there was far too much dead air in between and silence before we spoken. Therefore , it is good to have a written piece to fall back upon , but it is essential that we also learn to create an unscripted conversation during the time on air.

Mark Kermode and Simon Mayo are two popular presenters
