Evaluation - Preliminary Task to Final Task

When looking at how my research and planning skills have improved from when creating my Preliminary Task to my Final Radio Production, it is evident that my skills have advanced and I now have a wider understanding of the technology and software used. 

My Preliminary Task was a very brief radio show that was completed without much research and planning whereas when I created my Final Task i ensured to do much more research and more planning inorder for the task to be as best as possible. It occurred to me that it was extremely important to find the best vocal range so that the Radio sounds as authentic as possible. 

When doing my preliminary task, i used a small amount of technology. This gave me  slight experience and an idea of what I will be doing for my Final Radio show and it definitely prepared me for when I started to edit and then completed my final radio task, however not in so much detail. When finished recording for my Final Task, i was introduced to different forms of editing on the Adobe Software.  I was able to mix different sound effects together to create the perfect sounds needed on the clips. 

After all learning all of this, and understanding how to do work with the software, It gave me more enthusiasm to make harder adverts and challenge myself to complete them. I included Voxpops, outside broadcasts, music and different sound effects which made everything more authentic and realistic. 

Below is a clip from my Preliminary Task 




Below are two different clips from the same advert. I used the technology to record everyone individually and then combine each clip together



After completing my Preliminary Task, I knew that i had several things that had to be done in order to improve the sound of the Radio Project. I wrote a list of different things that I knew I had to improve

• Picking better voices to make the radio sound more authentic 
• While writing my script I will use the language that suits each character more 
• Use more voices to make the radio sound more authentic 
• Get better music to attract my target audience 
• Edit the voices so that there are no stutters
