The Summer Festivals Postcards project is a 15-episode podcast series about the main Summer Festivals’ history in the form of an audio postcard, to go hand-in-hand with the 2022 Euroradio Summer Festivals series, for use and adaptation by all EBU radio organizations. It will be produced by Overcoat Media in collaboration with the EBU.
The aim of the project is to create ‘audio’ postcards containing a collection of intriguing and interesting information about the festival, bringing it to life through audio, and focusing specifically on stories unknown to most of us. One of the objectives is for them to be used as short teasers during the concert presentations or during the interval of the concert broadcast; or in the morning show to promote the evening concert transmission!
Each postcard will contain short interview excerpts in the original language with one of the festivals’ leaders giving a distinctive and local flavour. The postcards will be produced in a modular way: 2 or 3 sections interconnected that could be easily sliceable/divided into shorter autonomous parts.
Series of 15 6-minute postcards, each a postcard of a Summer Festival in Europe, to be used on all platforms (on-air, online, etc.).
The EBU will provide:
The EBU will distribute all the material via MUS at least three weeks before the start of the festival.
