Substance is essential, but in a radio setting, form is of equal importance. Even the most vital information might not catch the attention of listeners if it is not well delivered. This workshop will enable participants to understand the importance of their voices and how to use them properly. Simple exercises will focus on dictation, speed, breathing, and concentration to improve vocal techniques and efficiency.
