BUT YOU HAVEN’T BEEN THIS AMBITIOUS WITH YOUR RADIO PRODUCTION BEFORE... WHERE DO YOU START? HOW DO YOU TAKE YOUR CONCEPT AND MAKE IT INTO A HALF-HOUR PIECE OF RADIO THAT TELLS A STORY AND HOOKS A LISTENER? These are the questions that annual recruits of the National Features and Documentary Series have asked KAIYU BAYLES • 98.9FM themselves since 2014. An initiative of the CBAA and Community Media Training Organisation (CMTO), this year eight producers from radio stations across Australia undertook training and mentoring for the series. For many, it was the first time they’ve produced such a piece of radio, and they were paired with very experienced mentors (who share a few accolades between them!) to step them through. In 2017, topics ranged from the lives of veterans living with PTSD in Simon Finch’s Disconnected States (The Pulse, Geelong), to an historical indictment of Australia’s colonisation in Graeme Taylor’s Crown Rules (3MDR, Emerald). As they neared the finish line, we asked producers behind two of the 2017 features to look back on several months of preparation, research, interviewing, you wanted a quick download of what WHAT DO YOU AND TIGA FEEL recording, scripting and editing.

This was following an alleged attempted armed robbery of shop on Tuesday evening at Sale. The offender allegedly fled in a stolen car, also occupied by a woman, and police took chase. Police Minister Lisa Neville said it was an "appalling" act, but improvements to the old analogue network were already planned. A $12 million fully encrypted system should be fully operational by mid-2018. The duo believed to be involved in the attempted robbery were pursued to the nearby town of Traralgon where the woman was arrested. A 21-year-old man was later arrested on the roof of a nearby shed.

  • For Immediate Release: Thursday 9Th August 2018
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: THURSDAY 9TH AUGUST 2018: Following the success of the inaugural SummerSalt concert series across Australia last Summer, Zaccaria Concerts & Touring are thrilled to announce the first Summersalt concert event of Summer 2018-19. SummerSalt continues to deliver cream of the crop artists to the great Australian outdoors as it announces two of Australia’s finest artists – The Waifs and Pete Murray with strong support from Busby Marou, Mama Kin Spender and Carla Geneve performing live at Hotel Rottnest on Sunday January 13th, 2019. SummerSalt takes place in some of the most picturesque locations around the country. On top of showcasing the best of home-grown and international bands, it also brings cultural attractions, placing a very heavy emphasis on local community and sustainability. With sun, salt air, and sweet music to wash over Thompsons Bay at Rottnest Island, SummerSalt will create the perfect setting to dance the afternoon away with your friends on the sand or chill in the awesome venue of Hotel Rottnest. Soak up some Summer sun under the spell of some of the country’s finest Australian talent. A trip that began in a van in 1992, playing gigs anywhere in Australia that would have them has led The Waifs to multiple ARIA Awards, platinum albums and successful tours across the world. With a career spanning 25 years off the back of relentless touring and ground- breaking records such as Up All Night and A Brief History, the hard yards in those early days paid off in terms of their career, but also bound them together as friends.

  • A Handbook for Youth Empowerment Through Media Participation
    A Handbook for Youth Empowerment Through Media Participation Based on a project co-designed and co-delivered by the National Ethnic and Multicultural Broadcasters’ Council (NEMBC), The Centre for Multicultural Youth (CMY) and SYN Media in association with Radio Adelaide Training By Rachael Bongiorno from the National Ethnic and Multicultural Broadcasters’ Council 2012. Photo of participants, trainers and project partners in SYN Media studio. All photos in this report were taken by Khalid Omar 2 Introduction Engagement with media is crucial for young people from Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) backgrounds. It provides an opportunity for CALD youth to express themselves in a society in which their perspectives are often marginalised, stereotyped or ignored. This handbook shows you how to develop a training program to equip culturally diverse young people who are not yet involved in broadcasting with the skills, knowledge, enthusiasm and networks for ongoing participation in the media. We particularly want to encourage radio stations to deliver programs like this in collaboration with community organisations servicing migrant and refugee young people. The handbook can also be used by government, community groups and private organisations in the same way. Mercy Ngun Ceu With Australia’s mainstream media, coming into sharp criticism recently for not representing the cultural diversity of this country , training projects such as this are important as ever to diversify media in Australia, increase the number of CALD journalists and provide the public with an understanding of diverse experiences and perspectives. The National Ethnic and Multicultural Broadcasters’ Council (NEMBC) is acutely aware that culturally diverse young people are not just underrepresented in the mainstream media but underrepresented in community broadcasting as well.
