With now over 14 years experience in the Australian Radio Industry, James ‘Turbo' Anderson has worked with some of the largest radio networks in Australia and achieved his goal of hitting the number 1 position for official radio ratings in Melbourne for his afternoon show on Triple M in 2006.

THE BEGINNING - SUN FM, SHEPPARTON / MT BULLER, VIC
Starting his commercial radio career hosting the breakfast show on Sun FM in central Victoria, James quickly gained enough on air experience and skills to attract the eye of program directors in the capital city market and was approached by Melbourne's Austereo Network (FoxFM / TripleM). After 2 trial shows, they asked James to join the Triple M team in a full time capacity.

TRIPLE M AUSTEREO NETWORK
Working every time slot possible, it didn't take long for James to work his way up to become the full time host of the Afternoon show on Melbourne's 105.1 Triple M, including 12 months of which were networked also through Triple M Sydney with a potential listening audience of 6 million people.

MCM ENTERTAINMENT AUSTRALIA
During my time at Triple M, I was also asked to be the host of MCM Entertainment's ‘ Planet Rock'. A rock music radio show distributed to over 100 radio stations across Australia on a weekly basis to both regional stations and capital city radio.

MUSIC SPECIALS
In addition to the full time afternoon show, James has also put together music specials for the national Triple M network with interviews and history on Greenday, REM, Coldplay, Blink 182, Foo Fighters, Metallica, and many more. His productions have also included a 60 minute Led Zeppelin production by request Warner Music Australia for the release of a special Box Set CD Collection. Not only did this special play the rare tracks, but also included never heard before interviews and information about the band.

James has also hosted a number of Outside Broadcasts since starting in the Radio Industry which has taken him to the streets in many different locations including the Murray River, The Great Ocean Road, Zoo's, Park's, Concert Venues... even Tokyo, Japan.

RATINGS SUCCESS
In June 2006, I reached the top of the official radio ratings with a massive 16.7 % of the Melbourne Market - making it the number one radio show of its time slot beating both AM and FM Radio Stations in Melbourne, Australia (1-4pm weekdays).

CURRENTLY
When my show hit number one in the ratings, I decided to leave (on good terms) to take some time traveling the world.

Now back in the country with a renewed energy and a fresh mind after seeing many parts of the world - i am working casually as an on air announcer for Triple M Melbourne and seeking full time opportunities within the radio industry.

INTERNATIONAL GYMNASTICS TRAINING CAMP
In the summer of 2006 and 2007, I worked as Videographer at a summer camp in Pennsylvania, United States. I worked here for 2 summer camp seasons and produced a promotional video for their Gymnastics Camp and Day Camp facilities (demo below).

This video was made for DVD distribution and informative video content for their internet site. In addition to this project, I was also responsible for creating a DVD for international staff members to remember their time working in the United States.

Since this time, for personal sharing - I have also produced a series of Travel Videos from my adventures around the world and my time working for Celebrity Cruise Lines in Alaska and South America.
