Progress


We now have a draft of our radio script. Also we have set time aside tomorrow to record the radio advertisement.

Today we have used the websites audio.lgfl.net and www.partnerinrhyme.com to look for the correct audio, So it would hook and keep the interest of out target audience. However it must also have relevance to the subject of documentary, so this can be carried across to the audience clearing ambiguous thoughts.

We have been looking at sound effects on these sights. Also we have been importing them into garage band.
Here we experimented for example with looping sounds, importing, and audio adjustment (volume...).

(audio.lgfl.net is a website with un-copy writ ed music)
( www.partnerinrhyme.com is a site where a plethora of the audio must be purchased)

Radio Scripts

Radio is a fundamental part in society in informing and entertaining the public in everyday life. A plethora of stations contain advertisements to public the product or programme being sold or publicised.

Therefore when looking at theses advertisements it was notable that the time period of the broadcast was aired played a significant roll in the nature and tone of the advertisement due to the variation of the demographic though out the day.

Therefore we looked into a varierty of Radio stations and due to the nature of our documentary it would be shown after water shed, and made a unanimous decision that our show should be pluged from 9:oopm to 11pm onwards on the chosen station.

We linked our documentary to the station Radio 1 due to the 10-12pm Broadcast of 'the surgery' with Alard Jones.

Radio Resurch (advertisment conventions)

For guidence we looked at the following websites:


Also we listened to a plethora of Radio stations such as those on the BBC, such as radio 1 and mainstream stations such as, heat, capital, Xfm, and Kiss 100. To hear the conventions of the advertisements. Here we could see what grabs attention and what seems tedious. From this we grasped notes such as use of alliteration, rhetoric and Sound effects were successful ways of grabbing attention of an audience.
The above image shows the note taking process that I took when exploring the conventions. To access The BBC radio stations using the BBC Iplayer website. Due to all the scheduled shows being listed we could listen to the shows and see the variation between adverts due to the time of day they are being broadcasted at.

Audience questionair results

The audience contained both males and females between the ages of 16 - 24.

Here are our findings from the screening:


  • Target audience - Firstly we found that we have successfully caught the attention of part of our target audience. The girls body language was open whilst watching the footage. The boys simply looked board one even checked the clock to see how long of the viewing was left. This was emphasised more in the feed back of our questionnaire. For example, when asked, 'Would you want to watch the whole documentary?And Why?' comments such as the following were given. " I would defiantly want to watch a second half, I don't feel this issue is highly addressed" (girl) and " It was good however needs more information for boys, lost interest part way though" (boy).

  • Audio and Editing - We asked 'What did you think of the editing?' and 'Do you think the music compliments our documentary?'. Due to our documentary not being completely finished in terms of editing we understood that there would be a plethora of criticism. For example due to there being a 'voice of god' Narration over a blank screen (as we have not yet uploaded the chosen image), all commented on this saying there should be an image. Feed back on the audio was positive. This shows with regards to our target audience (demographic) that we have picked the appropriate Audio, as it is modern, recognisable (therefor hook/ create and keep the audience interested as they can identify this with this part of culture). We did recieve critcism however on raising and lowering the levels and with part. This shall be adjusted imediatly.

  • Interviews - As a general note it was highlighted that the interview with Francisca MacArthur ran too long. We feel that the views being expressed with in this interview is highly important and should not be cut away from. So to compromise with this feed back we are going to split the interview in to two halves but place appropriately.
