Here We Come World!

There are two massive events that are going to take place in the next 3 weeks.

First of all KingsGate Community Church will be LIVE on BBC One on 31st May 2009.

The BBC only broadcast live church services three times a year and this year they have chosen KingsGate to do one of the broadcasts at.

You can read more information about the broadcast from the KingsGate website and also the Evening Telegraph.

Secondly, yesterday Tulip Radio announced their launch date! They will be launching on Friday 12th June 2009. This is a new chapter in Spalding's history as it will see the launch of Spalding's first ever full time radio station.

You can find more information about Tulip Radio's full time launch via their Facebook page, Twitter account and website.

My own 3 hour show on the radio!

This post is about four days too late, but better late than never!

All this week at Peterborough Regional College we are running our own radio station; XPRES FM.

And everyday this week I have the pleasure of presenting the afternoon show from 1pm to 4pm.

The show includes live band performances, a ringtone quiz, interviews and also a daily drama, which is performed by performing arts students from the college.

So far this week I have interviewed the manager of Peterborough Museum, aired band performances from several bands from the First Diploma Course in Music and also other performing art bands, three out of the five drama performances and had a lot of fun along the way.

Thursday and Friday see two more bands take to the air for live performances around 1.3opm each day, more ringtones from the staff room, interviews with the head of media at Broadway and two more dramas.

It is set to be an amazing week. We are on air from 7am to 10pm with the latest news on the hour and also regular weather and traffic news throughout the day.

There is such a buzz in the media department. If you would like to find out more information about the week or the college, then click here.

The Show Has Just Begun

Since starting my Media Production course at Peterborough Regional College I've got involved in a few productions and I've had some time on my hands the past couple of days. So I decided to showcase some of my best work in a short reel.
The reel includes a production called 'Sorry Till Closed', a music video, a radio interview with Ralf Little and videos I have done for Tulip Radio.
Feel free to comment on the video and share it with others.

My Go using Microsoft's Songsmith

I've heard about Microsoft's Songsmith and thought I should give it a go. So this afternoon I downloaded Songsmith from Microsoft (http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/projects/songsmith/) and sung a couple of nursery rhymes into my microphone to see how it coped. This is the result.
