Tips on a Radio PSA

Nichole Tate reporting live on air at WDBZ-AM.

Here is an example of a Public Service Announcement.  This PSA was wrote and produced by myself on  behalf of the Charleston Soup Stop.   Also, I have included the original that correlates with the audio announcement. I have included a link to another example that includes the use of sound effects.

           It is easy to get wrapped up while producing and writing a script.  Just remember to keep it simple. You only have 30 seconds ( or less!) to get your information across to the public in the most efficient way possible.
