Northwest Community Radio Summit, Seattle Sept 15-17 2006

PANELS AND WORKSHOPS

Radio as a Tool for Change
Pete Tridish, Prometheus Radio Project; Free Radio Olympia; KBOO

We all agree on what community radio is NOT- it’s not a passive,
entertainment for maintaining the status quo. But how can we best use
the power of the airwaves to really make a difference? What role does
activism play at your station? What role is radio playing in social
justice movements around the world and in your community?

The Art of the Interview
Callie Shanafelt, KBCS; Joaquin Uy, KBCS

Whether you're a Music Programmer or a Public Affairs reporter/producer,
getting your community's voices on the air means learning to get the
most out of your interviews. How to ask those questions your listeners
want to know? How do you encourage folks who aren't used to public
speaking? How do you keep the interview on track? All this and more


Radio Journalism 101
Callie Shanafelt, KBCS; Joaquin Uy, KBCS

Citizen journalists need to know how to research, write and edit for
sure. But what about finding those stories that need to be told out in
your community? What about ethics, legal issues and cultural awareness?
What is advocacy journalism? Find out in Radio Journalism 101.

Upcoming Full Power Licensing Window: What's in it for your Station?
Todd Urick, Common Frequency; Sakura Saunders, Common Frequency; Michael
Brown, Brown Broadcast Services

A rare and exciting opportunity is fast approaching. How the FCC’s
full-power licensing window works, how you can prepare, and how you will
be affected.

Running a Volunteer News Department
Bruce Wirth, KSVR; Leigh Robartes, KRFP; Margo Robb, WORT

Public Affairs in community radio means different people with different
interests, different levels of experience and differences of opinion. So
how do you make your Public Affairs department sing?

Production Primer 1&2
Sarah Gustavus, KBCS; Pete Graff, KBCS

A full morning dedicated to learning the basics of audio editing for
radio. By the end of this series you will be a fledgling radio producer.
Why wait?

Building a Music Library
Gavin Dahl, KAOS; Jamie Hoover, KUGS; Ava Hegedus, KPSU; Barbie-Danielle
DeCarlo, KBCS

You can’t play what you don’t have. Community and student stations can
build awareness and representation of alternative voices by finding
airtime for music that is outside the bounds of commercial radio. This
panel looks at how to foster relationships with artists, labels,
promoters, and servicers.

Student leadership in Community/College Radio
Gavin Dahl, KAOS; Oliver Anderson, KUGS; Jen Hartman, KUGS

Community radio is about re-inventing the familiar in new and unexpected
ways. Who better than students to lead the way with energy and insights
that others may be too habituated to see?

Producing for FSRN
Leigh Robartes, KRFP; Martha Baskin, independent radio-producer; Julie
Sabatier, KBOO

Free Speech Radio News is a worker run news collective open to reporters
from community and student stations around the world. Leigh, Martha and
Julie will share their experiences as FSRN reporters and show how you,
too, could be a part of FSRN.

Streaming, Podcasting
Amoshaun Toft, University of Washington; Jeremy Lansman, KWMD; Jeff
Hoyt, Voice of Vashon

Your station’s programming can reach around the world if you offer it as
a computer stream. And by podcasting, you make it available to
additional listeners, when they want it, as often as they want it. But how?

PSA's: Meaningful Messages to Build Your Community
Rip Robbins, KSVR; Joseph McGuire, KSVR

Public Service Announcements can provide a way, not only for listeners
to learn about events and organizations, it can provide the basis for
growing a mutually beneficial relationship between your station and the
community it serves. Make your PSA’s worker harder and better.

Media Democracy & Media Justice
Jonathan Lawson, Reclaim the Media; Pete Tridish, Prometheus Radio
Project; Sharon Maeda, Spectra Communications

What you need to know about the latest battles for media democracy and
justice and what you can do to help. Also, learn about the latest
threats to LPFM.

The Good the Bad and the Indecent: Legal Issues Q & A
Larry Hildes, attorney; Pete Tridish, Prometheus Radio Project

New FCC indecency regulations, licensing fines for pirate stations,
fair-use and much, much more


Diversifying the Airwaves: How to Walk the Talk (working title)
Callie Shanafelt, KBCS; Barbie-Danielle DeCarlo, KBCS; Sharon Maeda,
Spectra Communications; Adrienne Lauby, FSRN

Community radio can be a real leader in demonstrating models of cultural
competency. Is your house in order? How can we better reflect and serve
our communities?

Musician Panel: What can Community Radio do to support local music
Jim Page, Silver Shadow, Datri Bean

College and community radio stations typically boast that we support
local and independent musicians. Are we in fact fulfilling this mission?
Hear what some area musicians have to say about how we could do a better
job at supporting and fostering musicians in our communities.

Youth in Community Radio
Robin Carneen, KSVR; Jerome Edge, KSVR; Erin Yanke, KBOO

Does your station have a youth radio program? Do you air programs that
young people want to hear? Come learn how you can help youth feel
welcome and supported to make radio at your station.
