Radio Review

Unfortunately my original radio show was lost due to being overwritten by other people using the recorders, I should have made it more obvious that it had important work on it, so I had to re-record it at the very last minute. My first radio show took far too many attempts, at least 20 if I remember rightly. But due to time contrictions our second radio show was done in only one take for minimum editing and a smoother, clearer outcome. I am not happy with my final outcome because I feel if I had taken more precautions it would have been something far better. Although Ben helped me a lot and without him it would have been even worse. But overall I feel that we worked hard, but I could have achieved something a lot more exciting to listen to.

 

 

Peer Reviews

 

I think the radio show went well, especially with the time used to record and edit the radio show, the show was funny and different and that was what made it good. it could have been better and longer if we had more time to record and think of an idea rather than rushing to a room and thinking of a two minute idea, but everything went ok with recording and editing and i enjoyed working with amber on the radio show.

 

 

The radio show was amazing. I really like it. Maybe more time should be put into it.

What I have done today

Today we listened to a variety of 5 radio shows, (The now show, Terry Pratchett's Eric, Ramblings, The Ricky Gervais Show and The Maha Kumbh Mela) from comedy to monotone recordings of people on walks and wrote about what made them appeal to certain audiences, what sound effects, who the audiences were, the introductions, the genres, how they ended and what made them different from one another.

Good and bad presentations

The bad is below the good is above

A bad presentation stereotypically has too much writing all on one slide, usually has no point or relevance to the presentation and doesn't add anything, it will also have hard to read text either in a weird font or it would be too small to read and the slide transistions would be too over the top and distracting or there would not be enough text and too many pictures which draw the eye away from the infomation being presented (if any if it's that bad). Or the person presenting it would not be fluent when speaking and stammer, or read plainly off their powerpoint. So for a good presentation you need a good balance between text and images, if presenting infomation do it in small yet informative bullet points and be careful not to clutter the page, organise it competently to give the best effect. Use softer or not completely distracting so your audience stays focused. Another good thing to do is to learn your presntation and rehearse it so you seem professional and clear, don't talk for too long either, that's a sure fire way for your audience to lose interest.
