Abstract
This project focuses on the conceptualization, planning, and production of a 30-minute radio magazine program designed to inform, educate, and entertain a diverse target audience. The radio magazine format combines multiple segments—such as news briefs, interviews, features, music inserts, commentaries, and audience interaction—to create a dynamic and engaging broadcast. The study examines the processes involved in content selection, scriptwriting, scheduling, technical production, and presentation styles necessary for successful delivery. It also highlights the role of research, creativity, and teamwork in producing high-quality programming that sustains listener interest within a limited airtime. The project further assesses the challenges of time management, equipment availability, and audience preferences in modern broadcast environments. Findings reveal that a well-structured program flow, consistent pacing, and relevant content significantly enhance audience engagement and information retention. The finished production demonstrates the effectiveness of radio magazine programming as an essential tool for mass communication and social awareness.
