The main headline is in bold and in a bigger font than the rest of the newspaper
as I decided that this was a beneficial feature to have on mine after researching
others. I felt that it captured peoples
My radio advert contains all of the features that I found out from my textual
analysis should be included such as the name of my newspaper, the price and a
slogan. My speaker also speaks clearly and eloquently to get all the information
across but also as it makes the audience want to listen as the voice is unusual
but also warm and inviting. This tends to be a feature in most radio adverts as
they want people to listen. On top of this, the background noise of a busy place
at the beginning with the cars horns also helps to grab the audiences attention
as they want to know what all the commotion is about, inviting them furthermore
to listen. Therefore, by including these features, I feel that my radio advert is
undoubtedly conventional.
I chose to display the The Corby Report in the same colours and font on both
the newspaper and billboard as well as on
throughout the length of my radio advert.
I felt that this then would cause the name
of my newspaper to act as the logo rather
than having a logo as I didnt want a logo
for my newspaper after finding some of
the local newspapers logos to look odd on
their newspapers. Although most
newspaper do have a logo, I do not regret
my decision to not have one as I feel that
the name is effective enough to do this on
its own. The name along with the slogan
also fetaures on the recording of my radio
advert, although the slogan didnt need to
be mentioned,I felt that this would be an
effective feature as it would make my
newspaper memorable and create the
continuity between both of the other
ancillary texts. I didnt however include the slogan on the newspaper as it didnt
look right on the newspaper, however, it definitely wouldve been effective to
have this on it and I do wish I had been able to place this on it to create the
continuity furthermore.
The text in my newspaper and the text on my
billboard are different fonts however although
this doesnt create continuity, I made a concious
effort to make sure that the two didnt display
the same fonts as I felt they needed to be
slightly different to meet the different purposes
of each. For exmaple the newspaper article had
to have a failry plain but easy to read font whilst
the billboard, I felt needed a plain font in order
to get the point across fast but didnt need to be
as conventional as the newspaper did. I
therefore feel although the continuity isnt
expressed through the fonts, there are enough
features on each to create continuity between the two.
There were many occasions that I needed to receive audience feedback to aid
me in the creating of my three products, to do this I used survey monkey a few
times, however most of the time I solely made my own
questionnaire and typically asked 20 people to answer the
questions.
These three pieces of feedback I feel were some of the most important pieces
that I received as without these my products would not be realistic products
especially as these prove that some people wouldve struggled to understand
some aspects of each, causing my products to not meet the requirements.
How did you use media technologies in the construction and research,
planning and evaluation stages?
Final Cut Pro was another technology that helped me massively, which I used
when creating my radio advert. This programme allowed me to import my
original recording and then place an image over this as well as merge the royalty
free fottage (as explained above) in with it. It also allowed me to crop parts of my
advert down which I did when merging all of my takes togetehr to create a solid,
realistic one. It also allowed me to turn the volume up or down of any of the
recordings that I had imported, which was useful when I realised that the royalty
free footage of cars beeping their horns was over powering when placed over the
voice of my radio advertiser, I therefore reduced the noise of this and turned up
the volume of the man speaking for my advert, allowing him to be hearda nd the
cars to just be a background noise.
Not just these but Blogger has been a massively useful programme as it
aloowed me to display all of these other platfroms onto it, allowing me to view
them whenever I want and alllowing anyone lse to view them whenever they
want, without this the rest of the platforms wouldnt have een as useful as I
wouldnt have had anywhere to display these!
