Content
In this project we use social media and radio broadcasting to connect nationals and internationals in the Eindhoven regions on topics of high societal impact. A team of 3..5 young people will cover the climate event XYZ on November 9th.
Radio 4 Brainport targets the internationally oriented community in the region, with an active interest in technology and design, but that also engages with societal topics. We will use the workflow of the radio station at a vehicle: the station runs in the cloud. We almost completely automate the playout of content, and actively feed interviews, special announcements, news items etc into the stream via online technology. This allows us to focus on creating high quality content on location in contact with our audience rather than to hang out in the studio. In parallel to presenting content in a linear stream, we post interviews as mini podcasts on platforms such as YouTube, Spotify, mix cloud and we are regularly posting on LinkedIn.
