Are you interested in cracking into radio imaging but don’t know where to start? Join industry expert Vanessa James, who has over 15 years of experience, for an exciting and informative webinar that will teach you how to break into the world of radio imaging, how to set yourself apart, and build a career that’s both creative and lucrative!

For those who don’t know, radio imaging is the collection of sounds, voiceovers, and music that help define a radio station's unique identity. It’s essentially the station's "sound branding," used to create a memorable listening experience.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:

• The current state of radio

• How to navigate genres and formats

• Finding your range and niche; what you want to be “known for”

• Building your radio imaging kit

• How to navigate each market with the power of market research

• Understanding the workload across clients once you start to book stations.

• The Ratings Game - learn how radio stations measure success through ratings and revenue, and how you can leverage this for your career.

• The financial side of radio imaging—why it’s a potentially lucrative option for VO actors, with the potential for steady income through contracts. It could become a 9-5 for you!

• How to Record for Radio Imaging - format presets, recording styles of different genres and reading directional notes from PD's and MD's. (Sample scripts and dry run with Vanessa).
