When the festival becomes specialized, it has its own impact in the process of time
In response to the question, to what extent is holding radio festivals effective in improving the level of programming? He said: “When the festival becomes specialized, it has its own effect on the process of time, especially when it is accompanied by continuity and repetition.” The radio came again and called the festival again with the focus of the documentary, and this gradually grows and develops the view of the enthusiasts and program makers.
The winner of the first Pajhwok Festival expressed solutions to strengthen the flow of documentaries on the radio and said: This listening media has been planning and operating the position of routine programming for years, but it is affected by social networks and suspicious documentary productions of users. We need to have a functional change in the content of our routine structure, not just because of the production of a few programs that are sent to the festival.
This radio producer continued: If we reduce the cost of producing routine programs, we can spend this cost on the production of documentary programs. A routine and live program can be played once, but the documentary program, although it costs more to produce, has its own economic benefit in rebroadcasting.
Referring to the role of radio in strengthening public trust and increasing social capital, Daurifer said: Every media has its own audience according to its facilities and capacity, if it pays attention to the real needs of its audience, it can still gain trust. Today, due to the presence of podcasts, radio has found a tough competitor.
I have set up “Radio Camper” with my travel car
He stated: Other documentaries mostly prepare documentaries in Tehran and cover Tehran, but I record documentaries while traveling. I have a travel car which is a mobile radio and through this car I interact with people during my travels. Sometimes I invite people to my mobile radio. Since this car is a travel car, I named it “Radio Camper”. Even the documentary TV channel has produced and aired a one-hour program about Radio Camper.
Daurifer continued: Radio Camper is an interactive mobile media. Based on my experience from radio, television, documentary cinema and theater, I equipped a car with all these facilities inside. On one trip we have a film screening and on another trip we have a performance, and many times I set up my radio studio to talk to people.
The winner of the first Pajhwok Festival said about his travels: I only travel to talk to people. I reach my subjects by interacting with people. People’s stories are fascinating to me and I travel to discover people’s secrets. I don’t travel to see nature, but the people themselves and their stories take me to nature and history.
