LO2 - Schedule Timing

Schedule Timing For Our Show

The plan is to hopefully put our radio show on air at 7:00pm on Friday night which will allow the audience to either get home from school and adults from work. It means coming on air just after Talking Balls which finishes at 7:00pm which would mean pushing Aaj Ka Sabrang back by 15 Minutes.

Finley: Man! Check out all the upgrades you can get from winning races and even losing!

Dom: you wanna know whats bad guys? Cant change cars when you’re in a chase so you could be stuck in a 1 litre and cant get into a fast whip so you can hardly get away

Bailey: Cant wait for the new need for speed!

Dom: Completed it

Finley: It only came out yesterday?

Dom: Err! Moving on!

Bailey: Anyone been on GTA on the new consoles with first person?

Finley:  Yeah but it’s only out for new consoles and they cost a bomb

Dom: Who plays Xbox 360 anymore though?

Finley: You’re joking right? Loads of people! People who don’t want to pay a fortune!

Dom: Moving onto accessories for CoD where we’ve been testing out the new modded controller from rapidmodz

Finley: The controller we’ve received allows you to do a multiple of things whilst in the game, like dropshot, quick reload,

Bailey: quickscope and rapid-fire with the controller lighting up with bullet buttons

Dom: Now, talking about the new Farcry4! We’ve got jack one of our listeners who have called in to talk about his experience of the game soon!

Bailey: The new valley of the Yetis DLC is out now for Playstation and Xbox!

Finley: What’s the story behind it? Is it worth the money?

Dom: It offers a supernatural twist with a threat of massive Yetis with the enemy after a secret in the valley.

Bailey: And it’s only £12 with it offering more storyline and more things to do so it’s worth the money in my opinion.

Finley: Anyone heard of the keys to kyrat for playstation? 

Dom: What’s that?

Finley: it’s where you can give a friend who doesn’t own the game a chance to play co-op for 2 hours.

Dom: There have been loads of patches to the game though for all consoles and pc.

Finley: We have our first caller on the line! Jack! Are you there?

Jack: I’m here! Am I really on?!

Bailey: Jack! What’s your opinion on farcry 4?

Jack: It has a good storyline and better gameplay to the one before, but there’s loads of problems like the stupid hand glider and grappling hook which is bad to use and hard to control. You cant even drive the cars cause the handling is that bad and the shooting accuracy is terrible

Bailey: Driving is easy on the game?

Jack: It’s not! I crash every time!

Bailey: I don’t, use the manual

Finley: Okay hahah! Time to leave it there thanks for calling in jack!

Dom: That’s all we have time for; I hope you’ve enjoyed listening today

Finley: Make sure you tune in next week where we will be talking about more games and doing our new competition

Bailey: Feel free to comment on our podcast online today thanks for listening, goodbye!

LO2 - Contingency Plan

Contingency Plan:

• If our show couldn't be broadcasted on air on the Friday at 7:00pm we would have to think about changing the content to suit a wider audience range and not only young gamers playing games which older people may not have heard of we would have to include popular games which adults play on there phone like Candy Crush.

• Guests - If a guest or guest(s) don't turn up to record for the show then they're not reliable and then we will have to look into finding a replacement for them in order for the show to keep discussions entertaining.

• Equipment Cost - If we can't afford equipment we will have to just pay or ask to borrow equipment from another radio show or company and save the money generated from advertisements and the audience texting and phoning in to be able to fund the equipment.

LO2 - Legal and Ethical

As part of one of the Jingles we included a song from one of the games we talk about within our show but to avoid copyright completely we have added a track over it with vocals and changed the beat so it doesn't sound the same but you can still recognise the sound if you heard it which makes you relate it to the game which allows the audience to engage in thought about this particular game when we are discussing it.

As we will be broadcasting a radio show we must follow strict rules by OFCOM with some of the games we're talking about are 18 and over we must not include any offensive language or promote any violence which these games are designed to do. We understand that our show isn't broadcasted late at night and we have a younger audience as well so e will keep it simple and avoid going into gory or violent details.

LO2 - Production Plan

LO2 - Running Order

Running Order : 

Game2funnypeople will start off with a Jingle which is high upbeat music which has been taken from one of the games called Grand Theft Auto which has been remixed in order to avoid copyright. The music will die down towards the end of the jingle with one of the presenters saying "Game2funnypeople". After the jingle it will cut straight to an advertisement with the advertisement being a game which is linked with the theme of the show, after the advertisement has finished myself and the other presenters will start to introduce ourselves followed by the first game on the agenda. The second game will be talked about, then the third followed by a special topic of accessories which will help the player with each of these games and will we have guests come onto the show to give there opinion about each of the game in order to heat up a discussion to get the audience involved. Once we have finished with each of the different topics to finish off there will be another advertisement which will be related to gaming to stick with the theme and the jingle to finish off the radio show.

LO2 - Example Script

Example Script:

Introduction : High tempo upbeat music, 

( remix of music used from the game GTA )

Bailey : G-G-G-AME2FUNNYPEOPLE

Dominic : Hello! Welcome to game2funnypeople my name is Dominic and im here with my presenters Finley and Bailey

Finley: Today we'll be talking about games like Farcry 4 and Need for Speed!

Bailey: We'll also be talking about accessories to help you play games like Call of Duty and other games!

Dominic: Check out Need For Speed Most Wanted now! The game is available on PC, Android, iPhone, PS3 and Xbox 360

Bailey: Check out the new cars in Need For Speed Most Wanted! I can't believe all the upgrades which are now available within the game

Finley: Don't forget how you can use the different upgrades whilst driving along thats insane! There are a lot more places to go now with free roaming being actually good for once!

LO2 : A plan for a new talk and music radio programme

Plan:

Myself and my team will be broadcasting our show "Game2funnypeople" on Sheffield Live which will be aimed at older teenagers to young adults which is based on the content which we will be producing, the jingles and the advertisements.



The Content:

GTA Soundtrack Mix 

The song is appropriate because it makes the audience relate to one of the games which were talking about in the show which will help them engage in thought as we discuss some of the bad and good points about the game, while the audience has engaged in thought they can remember points about the game and agree or disagree with what we have said which will allow them to ring, text or call to give there own opinion. We will be creating accounts on social media which will allow us to connect better with our audience where they can tell us there opinion about a game which we might read out on the show, we can also see the people who watch us so we can get a better understanding of the audience based on pictures, details any many other useful resources based on there social media accounts like Facebook and Twitter. We will not just be using Facebook, Twitter and other social media places to promote the show with being able to share posts about us but we can remind them when were live and give them a taster of what to expect on the next show coming up.

Running Order:

The show will follow a general rule of radio shows by starting with a Jingle, an advertisement then an introduction saying hello to the audience and introducing myself Dominic and the rest of my presenters. I will start by announcing the different games which we will be talking about and then the different topics we have lined up like accessories which will help you play the game better and make it more enjoyable for you as a player.

We will be presenting on Friday from 7:00pm where a lot of teenagers and young adults will have finished school and work will be playing games if they're not going out with something to listen to which is interesting and about games whilst they're actually playing games themselves.

As our show will be broadcasted at 7:00Pm on Friday it means that Aaj Ka Sabrang will be pushed back 15 mins while our show finishes which means it will start at 7:15pm

LO3 - Editing The Show

Evidence of editing on Adobe Audition:

Once myself, Finley and Bailey had finished recording and producing the different material, we decided to put it into Audition where we could put the different pieces together to create the show. We decided to put it into Audition as it's effective to work with and will make the show sound professional.

Myself and Finley noticed Bailey's voice to be quiet compared to ours which made it hard to hear him so we had to amplify his voice in order so that the listeners could hear him. One of the other things I have evidenced is Amplifying, cutting and fading out.




Fading out the introduction to begin the advertisement for our podcast

Evidence of editing the sound of the recording to match each of the recordings so that the person listening doesn't have to keep turning their sound up and down to match the volume

The video shows me cutting the intro from the advertisement where I then added a fade out onto the intro and moved the advertisement up to the end part of the introduction
