This camp is no longer being offered for summer 2008.

Whether they're heard on an AM or FM radio or on an MP3 player, radio broadcasts can lure the listener into a theatre of the mind. During the Penn State Institute for Radio Broadcasting you can learn how to report on real-life events or create worlds that are unlike those found in any other medium. You can learn how to record live interviews, write your own drama/comedy, and layer and edit sound digitally. For sports fans the institute will feature a tour of State College's minor league baseball stadium, interviews with the players, and tips on recording your own play-by-play analysis. The four-day program will culminate with a live broadcast that will be available on the Internet.

You don't need prior radio or digital editing experience. You will receive individual instruction from industry professionals and experienced faculty in the College of Communications, one of the fastest-growing colleges at Penn State. During the four-day institute you can gain valuable hands-on experience in current radio broadcasting techniques while enjoying campus life in Happy Valley.
