Documenting in the Production and Development of Radio Broadcasts - From Documenting the Radio Broadcast to the Radio Broadcast Document. Documenting the production of radio broadcasts is a complex process which requires specialized communication skills in the field concerned. Paradoxically, as the intention to broadcast simultaneous events live is more evident, the "real" world seems "fabricated", built to stress what the broadcaster wants to highlight. Docu-verite, an accurate reflection of the real world through images which make the metalanguage of an absent world, changes into the re-interpretation of the world through the perspective of intentionality. Thus, it is not the truth of the world which will come into prominence, but another world, filtered through a code proposed by the means of communication. It is not the events that are revealed in their specificity, but their reinterpretation which is provided under a decoding cipher imposed by the required means of communication.

                An intentionallity supported by communication and cultural skills of media "actors" is revealed. The product of documentation filtered through the ideology of the broadcast is sent out. The effect should be the "verite", "docu-verite", the consumer of broadcasting products having two essential tasks: reception by decoding a cipher which has been given to him, and responsiveness according to the affective-emotional profile (spontaneous reaction to the message) and to the cognitive one (message comprehension skills).

                From the technical model issued by the means of communication (mental clippings visualized after listening the sound sequence, with symbolic value) to the models of media communication – this is the path documentation should take in order to produce radio broadcasts. The public is picking up what makes sense for them (according to symbolic interacting) as co-participants in events which are"related" or "induced" (according to P. Charaudeau). An effective communication code is required so that the desired effect would be the reconstruction of the world on the scale of meanings which has been framed.

                From documenting the radio broadcast to the radio broadcast document – this is the path which we shall illustrate through media events and testimonials.

Keywords: communicaton and cultural skills of media "actors", the "verite" effect, the "docu-verite" effect, "related" events, "induced" events, document events.
