I've taken up the new Radio Producer / Production Coordinator / Spokenword Archivist job at CKDU. Thus far its been great. I like the staff and volunteers here: very friendly, easy going, laid back.
As of now my job has consisted of organizing over 900 spokenword reels which I have to encode, and assign meta-tags for each recording to be imported into a database which programmers can use from the MCR during their radio show(s). I believe I'm the first person to start this digitizing of media at this station, so I look to myself as a sort of "trendsetter", lol. Most radio stations (commercial) have their media on a database which is accessable by computer - I'm glad CKDU has started to do this.
Anyhoo, I'm going to sign off. Hope everyone who reads this has a great weekend!
PS: If you havent heard the TK's Carpets ad, it's in the video below along with some other classic Halifax commercials.
