Task 2 - EvaluationBy Jordan Lyn

Have I Met the Aims of the Brief?

I aimed my audio at young teenagers in East London who listen to music but mainly grime, I met this target audience by interviewing an artist from East London and also asking songs relevant to our subjects at hand. We also made introductions and spoke in the format of a radio station, we named ourselves “The 13th” and used conventions of a radio station such as Q&A (interviewing). Our tones were joyful and enthusiastic to entice the audience and to also keep the ambience of the interviews in a positive setting. Our product was over 5 minutes therefore we need to cut down some of it to meet the time required.

To what extent does our product now meet our original ideas?

Our original plan was to create an audio piece about music, we decided to do interviews and planned out who we could interview. At first we planned to only interview Edward on his music but we felt that we should have multiple interviews because it would make the interview more interesting. We wanted to broaden our audience by asking a range of different people who lives in East London to see the diversity in what people could be listening to and also the similarities.

Strengths of our audio

Our strengths were being able to flow through interviews without having massive pauses or too many retakes.

We managed to come up with questions relevant to our subject.

My colleague and I took turns interviewing people and sometimes we both interacted with the audience for more effect.

We used music in the background to relate to our topic which is music.

Room for improvement

Manage our time more delicately, we went over our time limit.

Proximity effect – to aim the mic directly at the mouth of the speaker.
