BROADCAST FOOTSCRAY LIVE -
Announcement AUSTRALIA’S NEWEST RADIO STATION -
ACROSS THE WORLD
Congratulations! Foostcray has just been voted one of the coolest neighbourhood in the
world and you and your media team have been selected to broadcast its story across the
world on Australia’s newest radio station - FOOTSCRAY LIVE.
FOOTSCRAY LIVE is a real life radio station that will broadcast to our community, and
across Australia and the world, during December this year.
It will be airing radio shows 24 hours-a-day, co-hosted, managed and produced by you –
the NEXT GEN radio stars from Footscray City College.
You will work in media teams to present, produce, and promote your radio programs, to an
audience that you will grow, inform and entertain.
As part of your work you will organise interviews with high profile guests in the west of
Melbourne, conduct round-table youth forums discussing important issues that affect
you, your friends and your community, and produce entertaining and informative radio
shows that people will be compelled to listen too.
Your aim in this project is to attract a massive 10,000 radio and podcast listeners across
your neighbourhood and the world and do it by creating great radio content.
FOOTSCRAY LIVE is the voice of the next gen in the west of Melbourne - YES THAT’S YOU!
You have a huge responsibility so good luck!
