Initial Research: 

1) Choose three radio production job roles you’d like to do. 

1st Choice:  Presenter
2nd Choice: Producer
3rd Choice: News Reader/Radio Journalist

2) 'Apply' for each job

3) Choose one job which you’d prefer not to do. 

One job I would not be good at is the Assistant Producer role. This is really just because I don't enjoy overseeing radio packages or presenting the.

Researching similar Breakfast shows: 

Capital FM's radio sweeper had lots of electronica before saying the name of the radio station. Then, several clips of people praising the radio station played in between beats of the song. 

Heart FM's radio sweeper was upbeat and featured a lot of electronic before proudly booming 'This is Heart'. This was straight to the point and simple, it works well. 

The BBC Radio 6 sweeper was, again, electronic and got the point across with their name in the middle of it all.

I know I will be good at interviewing guests as I have done it before, like when I recorded vox pops for a podcast I made in Sixth Form College. I know how to write natural dialogue and it's a hobby of mine too. Writing is a big hobby of mine and I've been writing fiction and non fiction since I was 15 years old. I keep up with the news daily, whether it's entertainment or political. One of my favourite stories I have written is of two people who get stuck in an elevator.
