This progress report was made by me (Maxi). The initial concept and script was co-written by Timo and I. The initial timeline of the radio show was made by me .
Initial Concept
Radio Name: RegentsX Fm
Demographic: Gen Z/Regents Students (15-18 years old). In general, our target demographic would be people who use the social media app TikTok.
Concept/Format: Due to our audience being mainly young people, the concept we have decided to use would be a talk show/interview based radio show.
Presenters: The radio show will have 2 presenters as that was the most frequently answered option. This will make it easier to stay away from dead air as the presenters can find a multitude of topics to talk about and keep the show interesting.
Segments: Firstly we will want to have a segment about school gossip as it was the most requested segment in our survey. More specifically, we will have the people/person involved with the gossip come on the show and share their side of the story and will answer questions.
Next, we would want a news segment talking about school news i.e. what events are going on in the next few weeks/what's going to happen throughout the day, like if there's going to be a university seminar, or if there'll be heavy rain and sports will have to be canceled.
Songs: The songs that will be played will be mainly the most popular songs used on the aforementioned social media app TikTok. Based on our survey, results showed that 100% of the survey takers use TikTok. The genre of songs will mostly be pop/indie/alternative rock. The songs that we are planning to use include the shortened/radio edit versions of some of the most used songs on the app like:
Do I Wanna Know - Arctic Monkeys
Sex, Drugs, Etc. - Beach Weather
Me and Your Mama - Childish Gambino
Ad: There will be an advertisement segment for one of the food stalls in the school canteen promoting their food/menu. Our advertisement will be for the Orange Stall.

This week we have our SMA boys team competing against Taman Rama Jimbaran for the 3rd place position on Thursday at 5 PM! Don't miss out! And the day before that we’ll have our SMA girls team also competing for 3rd place against SLK on Wednesday at 4, we hope to see you all there and cheer us on!
And don't forget that tomorrow is the culmination of book week as we have our costume parade!

(School Gossip Segment)
Timo: Do I Wanna Know… that song definitely makes me feel some type of way. On that note, to all of you listening at home, the weather has been quite chilly recently. Why don’t we warm ourselves up with some steaming hot quote on quote “tea” or in other words gossip. Without further ado lets move right on to our gossip segment!
Timo: So, Maxi, is there any tea in particular that you’ve heard of recently?
Maxi: Well Tim, the hottest tea that i can think of would probably be some heatted drama and tea about current relationships right now at school
Timo: Oooh yeah, i've heard alot about that going on recently, pretty sure our basketball team captain Dyfan just got out of a pretty bad breakup
Maxi: Yeah ive sure heard alot about that too!
Dyfan (awkwardly): Uhm, hey guys
Maxi: Oh my god, would you look at that! if it isn't Dyfan himself!
Timo: Wow! we totally didn't know you were here the whole time and you definitely suddenly just appeared in the room with us!
Maxi: Totallyyy, anyway Dyf, i don't think you need an introduction but just in case anyone listening DOESN'T know you are, how about you introduce yourself to us
Dyfan: Introduction
Timo: Thank you for the introduction Dyf, moving on though, to the question that everyone has on their minds, what happened between you and Feo?
Dyfan: Gives explanation about his relationship
Maxi: Wow, thats crazy! What do you think made you feel that way?
Dyfan: Explains
Tim: God, that sure sounds rough, hope you two are able to sort it out! Anyway folks, I think thats all the time we have for todays gossip segment, now lets get right back to our songs!

Changes from Feedback
After finishing the script, me and Timo recorded our lines using discord, an online social media app that allows you to chat, call, and video call with others, similarly to skype. He used the OBS Studio Recording software to record our clips and put them all in a google drive. I then used Adobe Premiere pro to edit all the clips together as well as downloaded all the songs that we were going to use. I then downloaded the jingle that Satria had made and put it in as well. In the following weeks, Timo and I got together once again, this time with Dyfan, to record our gossip segment. Following the same process, I then put it into Premiere Pro and edited it into our radio show.
Next, we submitted our first draft to our teacher Mr. Nick. Mr Nick then gave us some feedback on how to improve our radio show. He first told us that hearing the same jingle over and over again was repetitive and boring. To fix this we created 4 different jingles that can be heard all throughout our radio show. Next, he told us that when a song comes to an end, to not include a jingle. We initially disagreed with the decision stating that it would sound better with the jingle, but after further deliberation I decided that having the music fade out without a jingle was the better option. Lastly we were told to include an audio bed in our introduction due to it sounding a bit stale. We agreed and included background music in our introduction segment.
