I am busy trying to sort a new venue for the next "Taster Day" for the Transmission Radio Skool after the last one sold out! I am also offering one to one radio training as well - so get in touch if you want to grab me for an hour or two!
I'm also putting together the next 5 Emma Scott Presents gigs at The Slade Rooms in Wolverhampton and am about to add more dates at the Birmingham Academy 3.
On a personal note, myself and my family are off to Devon soon, as i'll soon be starting my new drive time show on Heart - can't wait!
I hope everything's going well with you. Keep in touch!
My Transmission Radio Skool is here!
At last!
Here's your chance to get a taster of what it's really like to work in radio - from someone who's worked in radio all her life!
I will be taking these classes, which will involve a Q and A session, some research, written and prep work, as well as getting in the studio to see if you've got what it takes to get on radio!
Ahead of the full Transmission Radio Skool, you get to test the water with this 2 hour informal demo-day on Saturday June 19th.
Your eyes will be opened for sure;-)
Birmingham School of Media at Birmingham City University have generously supplied the classroom and two industry standard radio studios - so you get a real feel of what it's like to be on air! (Thanks Sam!)
Places are limited, so book yours now for just £9.99 and join our:
Absolute Beginner Class 9.30 - 11.30am
Intermediate/Master Class 12 - 2.00pm

Emma Scott's Transmission Radio Skool!
www.transmissionradioskool.co.uk
This has been a long time coming…but I believe I am almost there….and I can't wait!
The Transmission Radio Skool is coming soon, to start with, it will be held in Birmingham.
3 levels will be taught by myself
There'll be an Absolute Beginner class, Intermediate class and Masterclass.
Absolute Beginner - This class is aimed at youngsters who are interested in radio as a career, but also aimed at people who know nothing about the radio industry but are tempted in having a dabble. Maybe you listen to the radio and think you can do much better, but you've never been in a radio studio? This is the class for you! As well as a session in the studio, you will learn about jobs in radio, and what work goes into each radio show.
Intermediate - Aimed at media students at college or Uni who know a little about radio, but need more information as this is the area of media they love the most. This class is also aimed at people already doing a little bit of radio, maybe in hospital, college, uni or other smaller radio stations who want to know if they've got what it takes to get a show on a bigger station. There will be a lot of practical work with producing a radio show, prepping, interviewing techniques and we'll have a proper session in the studio reading travel news and more!
Masterclass - for students in the middle of, or coming to the end of their media and journalism courses who really want to know what working in radio is all about and how to get in. There will be a heavier emphasis on presenting as well as prepping for shows, interviewing technique and applying for jobs. We'll work on putting a specialist show together, as well as research and what you need to put on your demo - to get you your dream job!
You will walk away with fabulous knowledge on what it's like to work in radio and how to get your foot in the door!
Every class will contain a Q and A session with myself and everyone will get to have a go in the studio.
Each class is 3 hours long and I'll be opening lessons to anyone from 15 to 55 - or there abouts! They will be held on a Saturday, and I will give full details as soon as I get the green light!
Please feel free to email me to ask for any further information to see which class is best for you:

Hope to hear from you soon!

Loads going on! Radio School/Emma Scott Presents/Writer's Block/Band Mentoring…
I'm busy getting ready for my first few LECTURES. I talk about my 22 years in radio and how to get on the radio if you're in an unsigned band. I've had some great feedback, and people are walking away with a good idea of what goes on within a radio station, how to get their band heard by presenters, and take their careers forward. If you want me to lecture at your college or uni, get in touch via the email address below.
With all my expertise within the radio industry, putting on gigs, listening to and playing unsigned bands, I'm happy to start mentoring bands on a one-to-one basis. I can work with the band over a course of sessions, find out where you are and where you want to be - and help you get there. If you feel you could benefit from some mentoring from myself and my business partner, then email me emmascottlimited@btinternet.com
My RADIO SCHOOL is looking as though it's gonna happen! The plan is for it to be a 6 hour crash-course into radio, with the opportunity to make a radio demo, which you will be able to send out to radio stations and be proud of! If you've ever been interested in learning more about what goes on behind the scenes in radio, how a radio show is put together, how playlists work, or if you just want to get behind the mic, then this will be ideal for you!! If you're interested in being a "student" then email me emmascottlimited@btinternet.com and I will get in touch with more details.
The EMMA SCOTT PRESENTS gigs are coming back! The first one (teaming up with MAS Records) is on April 27th at the Academy 3 in Birmingham. I am going to be putting on bigger gigs at other venues later on this year too. I'll be sure to keep you posted on Twitter, Face ache and My Space though, and keep checking back here too! If you're in a band and would like to play, then use the email address above to give me more details about yourselves, and some links to your music.
The autobiography is coming along well. Around 65,000 words done, but I'm suffering from writers-block at the moment - maybe because I have so many other things going on.
Well, I'd better get on. Hope you're well, speak soon!

What's new for 2010?
A new decade and exciting times ahead, I hope!
I'm still doing some shows for Heart. Mostly on the South Coast, but i'm doing a couple of shows in Swindon in Feb too.
I'm missing not being on the radio everyday, but i'm keeping busy with the writing of my autobiography and that's a massive job. I'm sorting through boxes and boxes of memories, photo's, paperwork, cassettes, CD's, mini discs etc - and the memories are flooding back. I've done around 57,000 words so far, and am nowhere near done! It's a great feeling, although quite a challenge at times!
I'll keep you posted on how you can get it, when it's done. There are more details about the book here:
I'm going to be appearing in a classroom again soon, as I start up lecturing on radio and breaking into the music business. Exciting times. The first one is at Kidderminster College on Feb 23rd.
I'm also starting up the Emma Scott Presents gigs for 2010. I'll let you know all the details as soon as I get them.
I've got a lot of updating to do on this site as there are so many references to me being on Kerrang! Radio, and i'm not on there anymore. It's been 7 months now, so I really ought to crack on with it!!
Keep in touch via Facebook if you like:
and on Twitter. I'm Emma_scott
It's always nice to hear from you!
Happy New Year and God Bless You.
More news!
Hope you're well, just wanted to update you on some more news.
W/C Nov 2nd, I'll be back on the radio in Brighton! I used to work there from 2001 to 2003, and I'm really looking forward to getting back. I wonder whether I'll get lost? Of course I will….that's a given!
I'll be on Heart Brighton on the Breakfast Show with Paul Hayes from 6 - 10am.
I'm also in the early stages of writing "MY RADIO LIFE". I said I wanted to write a book, and I don't think i'll ever get round to a full book, so thought i'd write all about my radio career from the last 21 years in blog-form. These will appear on this site in the near future. Oh, the memories!! 
Well, until I update again, stay classy San Diego.
