COMMUNITY PODCAST OPPORTUNITY

[shanny-w.livejournal.com]

Isn't it amazing that with all of the K-pop-related news and opinion sites on the web, none of them include podcasts? As popular and numerous as they are, one based on Korean entertainment would fill a niche on the internet.

Omona member jesaray has proposed the idea of a K-pop/Hallyu podcast anchored by the members of this community. It does not have to be directly connected to Omona, but we want a program greatly infused with the spirit of the community. We also need people who aren't afraid to be opinionated, critical and silly about a fandom that often takes itself too seriously.

Are you getting interested?


What we're looking for...

On-Air Personalities:
-Four people max
-All views, backgrounds and biases are welcome.

We believe the more diverse the individuals, the more fun and unpredictable the discourse!

Development & Behind the Scenes:
If you're interested in development, programming, and/or have your own experience with podcasts/radio we need you!

Things are still in the development stages, & it's necessary that people are dependable during this process.

Having tech, web and/or social media savvy is a million pluses.

What we're not seeking:
To be blunt everyone involved & Omona as a whole wont have time for anyone who is thirsty to become the next internet celebrity, (in which case wouldn't you want to do your own show?) we need everyone involved to be a team player. This is about putting out the best product possible & having fun!

Content-wise:
We're not always gonna be fluff, fangirling/fanboying over idols: we're also going to be critical and not shy away from social issues. Don't be afraid to voice your opinions and not sugarcoat or handwave topics others may not want to address. Basically the same deal as Omona.

How to apply:

This is an AMAZING opportunity!!! I've even contemplated participating, although I know that I wouldn't have time whatsoever. No, I think I'll stick to listening but I hope a lot of people are really motivated to do this even though it'll probably be quite time-consuming. I'll support you from the sidelines! :)
