Radio Camp 2012 – Day 14 – Interview Time!
Today, we got promoted to amateur reporters! We interviewed Imagination Exploration and Art Activism, two other activities at Camp King. We ALL did such an amazing job, truly. The proof is in the pudding – give a listen and tell us what YOU think!
Radio Camp 2012 – Day 13 – Listen, Rehearse, Play!
!!!sremaerD remmuS, yad sdrawkcab yppaH!!! We started out today by listening back to some of the mock interviews we did yesterday. Overall, many of the recordings were really good! After almost three weeks at camp, we know how to handle the H1 recorders well, are very consistent with our microphone technique, and are quickly becoming seasoned interviewers.
We looked at the script we’ll be using for our interviews tomorrow, which used many of the ideas and questions we came up with a few days ago. We got done with that early and went over to Buhl Park for some fun in the sun. Tomorrow’s the big day – time to interview some middle schoolers – so get some rest, campers!
The Green Compass Season 4
Exploring the road to a better Pittsburgh. Where we are and where we are going…
In July 2012, twenty-three students about to enter their first year of college created these nine radio features as Youth Philanthropy Summer Interns at The Heinz Endowments. Because the Summer 2012 internship program focused on issues of sustainability, the resulting features cover a range of community, social and environmental issues. While SLB provided training and coaching, the features presented here were conceived and created entirely by the students in a single week.
Radio Camp 2012 – Day 12 – Mock Interviews
So, you think the pro’s always know what they’re doing? Classes today got to play a little game we called “Bad Ms Sarah”. Our trusty professional and resident teacher showed us what a BAD interview looks like… so that we could make sure we know how to conduct a GOOD interview! We practiced interviewing each other as we get closer and closer to our chance to interview another activity at Camp King.

It was also Wacky Wednesday, if you’re wondering why we all have mismatched socks, shiny shirts, backwards clothing and PLAID (how wacky indeed!). We’re going to listen to our recordings and critique our style, so nothing to show here folks. Come back soon for more of our awesomeness.
Radio Camp 2012 – Day 11 – Work Hard, Have Fun, Be Nice
Today, we took a look at some of our blog posts that we missed. We did some writing and recording today, reflecting on KWHB’s tag line of “Work Hard, Have Fun, Be Nice”, which also happens to be the three rules at Camp King. Some of us finished early and practiced for next Tuesday’s talent show! At recess, we watched a live performance of Squonk Opera right on our playground!
