Lecture 5

Richard Fidler


This is a sound lecture of ABC radio hosts Steve Austin interviewed Richard Fidler. Rechard presents a really well-know conversation program on ABC Lacal Radio to hundreds of thousands and podcasters.

He mentioned radio is a very different medium, it is a complete different medium to TV. Radio is much more intimate medium than TV. The only source you can focus on it is sound. When hosts or guests tell a story, if you are attracted, you will follow the sentences and image the pictures. Just like Rechard said, the important thing of radio is to let listeners feel included in every conversation. Beside radio, audiences are able to decide “stay” or “continue” through visual on TV. So comparing with comperes, host of radio should pay more attention on their language.

Resarch is important as well when you interview a guast, therefor extensive interest is superiority of a host. When you interviewed a guest, you need to realize when is the right time to speak, because most of time should leave to the guast.

Rechard said sometimes he will think the picture of his listeners. I really agree this ideal not only on guasts but on every thing. In the future, if I am a compere, I will image my audiences before I broadcast. Through this way, I can catch thrie mind and report suitable content. This is a really good ideal.

The interaction between hosts and listeners is necessary of radio. It always present through the phone, like call-in. Rechard said the easy way to le listeners call in is to ask simple questions, for instance, do you agree? That is a really smart quetion. People always listen radio when they go shopping, walkin, taking buses, so they don’t really need a hard or a trick question to bother them, because they just want to relax and enjoy through redio. In this way, when you post a simple question out, they will have “time” and “energy” to join in. So “complex ideal” won’t always be good choice, simple is more acceptable.
