Re: [ARSCLIST] Fwd: New word? / technical term?



This I believe...

Intro is the prelude
Outro is the post-lude
Lude is the body of the work

Old broacasting term. The intro is when the host or announcer introduces the show. The outtro is the same thing at the close of the show. I worked on a radio program in the 80s in which the host and co-host would set up a bit of business at the start of the program (say, one of them got a speeding ticket). They'd talk about it at a break in the middle of the show, then the story would be resolved in a final conversation at the end of the program. I dubbed these elements the "Intro", "Mid-Tro" and "Out-Tro" in the recording logs. :-)
