Radio scriptwriting is one of the secrets of having an interesting ongoing conversation on air. While many people assume that live broadcasters come up with all their content on the spot, successful radio professionals often plan carefully, just as professional actors rehearse extensively, so their delivery seems spontaneous.
Duties: Scriptwriting for radio productions, events or website and/or voice on-air for what is happening in the community, what’s on promotions, etc.
