This fall the ‘Live on the Air’ Radio class brought together young people excited to learn how to make audio stories and craft a larger radio show.
Between running around ZUMIX making Vox Pops, a short segment composed of multiple folks answering the same question, to making a playlists and writing news stories and personal commentaries to be played on the radio; Students worked together to present to the world 2 episodes of their show “Last Minute Laughs”.
