I want to work as a radio DJ in the future so this relates to me alot. I'm in the process of finding out what it takes to be a DJ!
From the DJ's I like listening to, I made some notes about how a radio DJ should present and what more they can offer to their listeners:- To have a clear and concise voice
- The listener must be able to hear the t's and n's (do not sound slurred)
- Make your voice exciting and interesting (sound young, fresh and like someone you can relate to)
- Play songs which people enjoy listening to! ( for example Club Asia have the iRadio and also you can request songs via texts, calling in or email)
- Create a blog, so that the listeners can get to know you (the DJ) as a person, and vice versa :) there is a personal feeling between you and the people that listen to you every day
- Enjoy presenting your show! Must be a happy and cheerful person, in order to engage the listeners :)
I'll keep you all posted :) watch this space.

Hi Pinkz!
ReplyDeleteFirstly, I'm gonna apologise for completely stealing your blog addy & everything... I saw you on Zy's wall and decided to check out your blog! ;-)
I have to say, you're absolutely fascinating. Your attention to detail is brilliant and already, you've got a huge amount going for you. If you wanna be a radio presenter, do it - I did! Your blogs are actually quite inspirational and if it's OK by you, I might mention them on the show later this week. Also... later this week, I'm gonna talk about work experience with Club Asia.
Keep up the excellent, interesting blogs!
