	AIMIE GAVIN 1.WHAT WERE YOU STUDYING AND WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO STUDY (IF APPLICABLE) At the time of producing this programme and was completing my final year in IT Carlow where I was studying for a BA (Hons) in Communications and Public Relations. Since I have just completed my degree I hoped to continue on with my studies and will now be undertaking a Masters in Broadcast Production- Radio and Television in Dun Laoghaire Institute of Art and Design in September 2009. 2.WHY YOU DECIDED TO MAKE THIS PROGRAMME At the time I was researching for my thesis which the main subject revolved around was Youth Radio. The position of par- taking in this programme was offered to me and I felt it was a great opportunity as I was interested in the market of Youth Radio and since I fell into their listenership I felt it would be a great opportunity for me. I’m not from the South East but I still felt that I could offer something to the programme. 3.WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO DO IN MEDIA IN THE FUTURE Well all my college studies so far have revolved around media for which I have a keen interest in but I would hopefully someday like to be a presenter on a Youth Radio station as I feel this is a great genre to work for and you will be constantly entertained and overall it would be fulfilling. Throughout my research studies I discovered that radio has a huge bearing on adolescents and what better job than to work on Youth Radio and feel your doing better for their development. Either medium, radio or TV this would be the genre I would love to work for. JENNIFER POWER 1. What you were studying? I'm Jennifer Power, and I've just finished a one year course in Journalism and Photography in Waterford College of Further Education. It was a great year, that gave me the opportunity to do this documentary, and find out more about the Deise. This year, I'm beginning an Arts Degree in Waterford Institute of Technology, where I hope to mix my Journalistic knowledge with Sociology, Spanish and Italian. 2. Why did you decide to make this programme? The reason I decided to take part in this programme was because, study isn't just about staring at book and sitting in class, but, with Journalism especially, you need to get out there, be active and be part of things. I love meeting new people and I wanted to broaden my horizons and improve my confidence and also my knowledge base on interviewing and researching. 3. What you would like to do in media in the future? In the future, I would love to work in radio, whatever it maybe! I have a slight addiction to radio and how everything works so it would be like a dream! I hope to be working as a Broadcast Journalist. Fingers crossed! MARCUS CAMPBELL 1.WHAT WERE YOU STUDYING AND WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO STUDY I am studying media production in the Liberties College in Dublin once I have finished this course I plan to go on to university to get more skills and a degree. 2.WHY YOU DECIDED TO MAKE THIS PROGRAMME I wanted to make this programme about the ecovillage because I have always been interested in groups of people who come together and attempt to do something they feel is for the greater good. I am always intrigued as to whether they are genuine or not. 3.WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO DO IN MEDIA IN THE FUTURE The type of programmes I would ideally like to make in media would be ones that if documentary based are on small eccentric pockets of society, ones we do not usually see nor hear of and if the programme were to be fiction/entertainment based that they simply be interesting for the audience and fun to make. KELLY MCGRATH 1. What you were studying? I was studying for a BA in Journalism in Dublin City University. This year I am starting a Masters in Applied Digital Media in Griffith College Dublin. 2. Why did you decide to make this programme? I have always loved animals and been interested in animal welfare. Waterford Animal Welfare is a local group and I really wanted to show the work that they do and give listeners an idea of a typical day for this organisation. The recession has made it difficult for many people to care for their animals resulting in an influx of abandoned animals. Therefore I felt that it was particularly important to show the work that animal welfare organisations do and let people know that there are other options for them if they can no longer care for an animal. 3. What you would like to do in media in the future? Ideally I would love work in either print and broadcast... or both! I would like to be a producer for radio and/or a writer for a magazine/newspaper dealing with a variety of topics such as news, current affairs, fashion and music. I would also be very interested in working in the on-line media sector. DAVID POWER 1. What you were studying? I have studied Business Studies in Waterford Institute of Technology to Maters level beginning 2003. I have done a research masters for the last two years in entrepreneurship and have also carried out a lot of research work throughout the south-east. I also initiated the Journalism Society in Waterford Institute of technology and worked on the campus student news paper. I am starting a taught Masters in Journalism in Dublin Institute of Technology this September. 2. Why did you decide to make this programme? Growing up in the tourist town of Tramore I realised that it has a special place in people’s hearts, especially older people who had to holiday at home before the boom. People have happy memories of coming to Tramore as children and I wanted to tap into those happy memories and give Tramore the credit it deserves. I also interviewed people in Tramore that spent their working careers making the place what it is today and I want to recognise those people for their hard work. 3. What you would like to do in media in the future? What can I say I want to be the next Niall Power! I have a passion for radio, but I am finding it very difficult to get into. I would love in the future to have my own talk show or magazine show, such as a breakfast show. I love to talk about news, current affairs, politics, social issues and anything important to people in society. I also love to give my own opinion. I love to dabble in celebrity gossip, fashion, entertainment and travel too. I have been described by my friends as a media wh##e!
