Today I worked on spots again. I enjoy doing them, but there have been a lot, so the pressure has been on to complete them quickly. I have started writing the spots that I do now, which gives me a really holistic perspective on spots. I am able to create a script that fits in with the non-commercial definition of the radio, record myself saying the script, and then finish off with editing and music. I have really started getting a knack of what music goes with what spot, because I like the music to match what it is about. That means, sometimes, having to take trips down to the other production team around the corner. They do production as a job, for local businesses and people in the community. They have a rather extensive line of production music for their and our benefit. Later on, at 5:00 p.m. I went back to the radio station to work on the Odyssey, which is their internet radio show. I brought Aaron Due along with me, to have someone to have conversations with on the air, and we ended up spending a good deal of time there. I enjoyed this time, because I was able to work on my radio timing for when I am going to work on the regular station.
