Mike
Hello I'm Mike Procter. Welcome to Spotlight. This programme uses a special English method of broadcasting. It is easier for people to understand, no matter where in the world they live.
Elizabeth
My name is Elizabeth Lickiss. I am one of the Spotlight producers. My job is making Spotlight programmes. Have you ever wondered how a Spotlight programme is made? Well wonder no more. Today's programme puts the spotlight on Spotlight. We hope that this programme will answer some of your questions. I am just one producer working with the Spotlight team in England. The team is based in Worthing - about ninety kilometers from London. Another team of Spotlight producers is based in Michigan, in America.
Sara
Hello, I am Sara DeKoster. I am one of the American Spotlight producers. We produce many Spotlight programmes every year. Each programme covers a different subject. So how do I choose what information to use in my Spotlight programme? Well, sometimes you tell me about the subjects you want to hear about. Listeners often write to us. It is great to hear your questions and ideas. But we also listen to current world issues. These can make good Spotlight programmes. We write about human concerns, world issues, science and technology, health, the environment, arts and sports.
Mike
But Spotlight producers cannot be experts in all these areas. This is where research is important. Spotlight producers have to make sure that they get the facts in their programmes correct. They have to be careful to talk to experts in the chosen subject area. They use books, the Internet, newspapers and other information providers.
Elizabeth
After checking the facts, I start writing the script. The script contains the words of the finished programme. Spotlight only uses fifteen hundred [1500] different words. Sometimes it is difficult to say what you want to say using just these words. I can use a word that is not on the Spotlight list - but I have to provide a clue, an idea of its meaning. I just did that with the word 'clue'. Or I may use a sound effect to demonstrate a word. For example, in one programme I had to use the word elephant. 'Elephant' is not in our word list. So I had to describe the animal. I said that the elephant is the largest land animal alive on earth today. I also added a sound effect. In radio you cannot stop the programme to explain a word, so you have to provide all the 'clues' in real time.
Mike
Spotlight programmes are not really English teaching programmes. They can help develop people's understanding of the English language - but above all, the producers want to make sure that they are good quality radio programmes. So, each programme goes through two 'edits'. Sara:
Sara
Yes, when I have completed my script I send it to one of the other producers. Producers go through one another's scripts carefully. If they see a mistake they tell me. I then make any necessary changes. Then I send the script to another person - the 'editor'. The editor also reads the script. He makes sure that everything is ready for recording. The editor is responsible for giving the script final approval.
Elizabeth
It is a good system. Every Spotlight producer has his or her own area of expertise. It is good to have other people look at your work. Sometimes I get things wrong. But it is only by learning from mistakes that I can get better at my job. All of us learn from each other in this way.
Mike
So now that we have a complete script, the recording begins...
Sara
When the editor has approved my script it is time to go to the radio studio. The script needs to be 'voiced', or recorded. I try to get a mix of different voices to read my scripts. All Spotlight producers can voice scripts. But we also have a number of other people trained to do this job. This is important. People speak English with different accents. English is not just the language of England. It is an international language. We want to show that fact in our programmes. We often use voices from many countries in one programme. We record the voices separately and collect them together by the internet. Right now I am in the United States, Elizabeth is in Britain, and Mike is in Cyprus. Liz will put our voices together to make the final program.
Mike
Spotlight programmes are not as easy to voice as people think. The people who voice the scripts have to slow down their normal speaking speed. But, we also want our programmes to sound natural, interesting and good to listen to. Each person who voices our scripts is trained in this skill. Now, what happens after recording? Elizabeth:
Elizabeth
Well, the recorded parts of the programme still need putting together. I have to mix the sounds of the voices together with music and sound effects. I do this on a computer. I wear headphones over my ears, so I can hear the parts of the programme as I work. I really enjoy this process. I begin to hear what the final programme will sound like. It is nearly complete. It is nearly ready for broadcast.
Mike
While Elizabeth is putting her program together, let us just answer one other question. 'Why?' Why do we make 'Spotlight'? Well, every Spotlight producer likes to communicate. Making radio programmes is fun. But more than that, Spotlight programmes often give them a chance to tell something about their faith. They are all Christians - followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. His was a life of service to people - and the producers like to serve people through these programmes. And in some programmes they get a chance to say what they believe - that Jesus is the way for people to come back to God. Placing our trust in Jesus is the way to turn from the things we know are wrong. We can be children of God. We can be that close. That is what drives the Spotlight producers. Now, back to Elizabeth:
Elizabeth
Okay, I have finished the program. Now I listen to it once again. I listen with another producer. We ask ourselves these questions. Is it a good programme? Is it ready for broadcast? This process is called quality control. If the programme passes these tests it is ready to be broadcast. We send the programmes to radio stations on the Internet, or on CD's in the mail. Spotlight programmes are now broadcast in over thirty countries. The number is increasing every year.
Mike
