Really excellent tips, James - thank you so much for making this video! How to be a Radio Presenter in 13 minutes - every radio presenter, new and experienced, should watch this. I've been saying this stuff to our volunteer presenters for years, but there is nothing like a video to bring it to life!

Tip sometimes a guest prepared 10 questions for a one hour shown but it isnt enough content and you'll wind up with dead air time. get some articles about their area of expertisr and share content and ask for their opinion. it will help promise.

Good vid. Thanks, James. I often smile while doing an on-air, depends on the situation but I find the smile really does connect.

I think voice must be dynamic. Radio presenting is an art just like singing. I berg to differ on the issue of voice. When presenting news for example should sound different in terms of voice from presenting an advert. Dynamism is key for radio presenters.

Great hit ur words are really motivating.. need ur advise on a question but will like to ask it in camera pls reply

[carolshipley]

Hi James, that was really helpful thank you. I am a presenter on a community radio station and love it however I have to work on my ‘uhh’ & ‘umm’ although I have improved a lot over 3 years! I always listen back to my live shows and I have worked out that I do that when I am trying to read several screens, read my script or I have a problem in front of me, a good colleague said ‘just pause’ rather than ‘um’ (briefly). Any ideas?

[oludeletolulope]

[scottwood]
