For instance when I made my preliminary task, it required only very short amount of time (less than an hour) and the less use of effects. I also did not have to worry about the kinds of voices I used from people as it was not essential. This did gave me the impression once I was doing my radio the importance of sound effects and editing. It in fact took me a whole day to complete the radio. Learning back from my preliminary task, I was able to move on to the advanced task on making my radio.

AS Evaluation- What I got out of my preliminary task
In comparion to my preliminary task and my actual radio work I felt I had achieved a lot. In comparison, my preliminary task was very brief and small compared to my radio. But it however still got me to undertand the important techniques such as the use of Vox pops, sound effects and edits.

AS Evaluation- Representation
During research there was a clear and essential task to pursue. I had to find the key social audience that would be best represented by my radio. I went through a number of different radio stations, national and local, and came with many different sorts of factors, One key factor is the type of presenter. His voice, tone and personality was the driving description of the audience that listen to him. Listening to radio stations like Capital had presenters who spoke in a hackney accent. Whereas radio presenters from LBC spoke with a more formal accent. I decided that in order to make my radio have its representation, I had to go through a list of people in the college whose voices would be ideal.
As seen on my list of voices, I came up with who would star in my radio. A majority of the voices tended to have a softer sort of accent but less formal. That was when I realised that perhaps I should make my radio along the lines of Capital having listeners. I put myself for news presenter. My tone was slightly formal (needed for someone who announces the news in my opinion). I chose Elliot Soards for the beginning part of my radio where he announced what music the audience were just listening too. If you notice, his voice tends to be more softer and friendly. Not just the presenter but also the track that was played: Timber, Pitbull ft Kesha. The music aired on the radio station also shows the representation as younger audience tend to listen to pop music that are in the top this year.

AS- Target audience
My target audience was aimed at young males aged between 18-35 in Hertfordshire. Examples that showed why it was aimed at young males was that one of my news buletins had a sports news on involving football, an interest popular amongst males.
Notice how they speak with their tone; informal and football language. This shows the target audience as indeed men aged 18-35. As I have said before this is a similar news channel to capital in terms of music and news bulletins, with the the exception of gender.

AS Evaluation- In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
Before even getting down to what ideas I had for my radio coursework I had to be cautious first with the very basic research of conventions with news and media. First I had to look the main five Ws:
1. What
2. Where
3. Who
4. When
5. Why
I then had to understand that news is pretty much detrimined geogriphically and culturally to the audience. This was then where I came to the conclusion that what was "newsworthy" was determiend either geographically or locally
Then I began my research on what kind of radio station I was going for. This all depended on what kind of presenter was conducting the broadcast, what his personalty was like whether it was formal or not. This lead me to another conclusion that this determines the kind of audience which I will later mention about in a separate post. I made research on numerous radio stations and noted down the repitition of media conventions used.

My first radio task was a preliminary task. I had learnt a lot of vital tasks which would help me create my real radio course work. The key concepts I developed whilst making the preliminary tasks was the sound bites and the editing used. For instance with commentators, their voices tend to have their voices slightly muffled. With the help of these edits I managed to make my preliminary task look authentic. I also learnt the importance of jingles which would help me use a good jingle for my real radio.
To prove my point, in my radio we had adverts which sounded authentic and realistic. For instance, I chose Alex (a man with a deep and solemn voice). This is how his voice sounded without any sound effects. I have also added on the voices of Sam Flitterman and Elliot Soards without editing. If you then listen to the whole advert itself, it sounds more realistic as a car crash and backfround noise from inside a car has been added.

Intended Audience
In order to get sorted with creating my course work, I must be aware of the audience I intend to target. They deterime my bulletin and station as it all depends on what they would normally listen to. For instance if it was an 80s music station then my targeted audience would be 30-40 year olds. I would then need to communicate through to them to the type of language they would normally be used to hearing so when announcing bulletins, perhaps I would say it to them in a formal manor rather than modern use.
The audiences I intend to attract are late teens to their early 30s. The gender would be from both. Examples of radio stations similar to my idea are Capital FM and Heart FM. Here is a copy of their service sheets to which I plan to have similar to theirs.

Chris Logan and Alex Jones
Chris Logan's character was based on the theory conspiracist, Alex Jones. They have such similarities one could say that Logan was the key inspiration based on Alex Jones.

Advert analysis on Capital
Compare the Meerkat
One of the UK's favorite character representing the car insurance "compare the meerkat". Overall it is a positive advert announcing to the audience to go on to the website for cheap car insurance.
(Carphone Warehouse- its a miracle) Mobile phones are very familiar towards the type of audience that Capital get normally. The advert also has a positive sounding.

Keith McQueen: The headlines at 6 o'clock:
(FX; crowd chanting Go home Sibelius)
Chris Logan (through megaphone/PA system): I'm here to give you the truth, the real truth. Not the falsehoods that Google or Apple tell you and the politicians who brownnose them. Your government are listening to your phone calls, your government are planting bugs where you sleep and a lot of their plans are being put together behind these doors here.
Graham Smith: Chris Logan is a passionate shock jock and conspiracy theorist, known for his controversial opinions on government secrecy. He arrived this morning to address the crowd and give his support to the protest. I spoke to him just after he addressed the crowd and offered his support.
Chris Logan: Well I don't need to tell you Graham since you're a news reporter for the mainstream mass media that lie to us every day, helping the governments of the world spread their lies and disinformation. It's all on the public record, and I'm here all day telling the good people who've come out here to protest here about the way our politicians and Apple and Google wanna take over our lives. We need our rights protected, we wanna be free citizens of our countries whether it's here or America or anywhere else in the world.
*cars driving by, perhaps some wind in the background, and murmuring*
Sgt Morris: I can confirm to members of the public that the abandoned house that our police forces raided last night was a cannabis factory. We can confirm that 15 men have been arrested in suspicion of drug manufacture and 4 people have been arrested for the dealing of those drugs. Thanks to my colleagues, along with the Hertsmere Drugs Action Squad, this is another measure to curb the availability of drugs to the public, especially children in our local schools.
Keith McQueen: In sport, another local football match has been marred by violence. The friendly between Chesham and Welwyn FC was interrupted last night after a pitch invasion, marking the 3rd incident of this kind at Oakland Park Stadium since the beginning of the season in August. Our Sports Correspondent Andy Scholes has more, Andy.

Good evening, I'm Keith McQueen, it's 6 o'clock. Crowds and demonstrators have been gathering outside the Royal Hotel in St Albans this morning to protest against a controversial event taking place within the building. The Sibelius conference, bringing together world leaders and representatives from some of the largest companies in the world, takes place every year in different locations around the world. The conference is widely seen as controversial because of its secrecy. American shock-jock presenter Chris Logan's been a leading campaigner against what he sees as major international conspiracies. He arrived to address the crowd this morning. Our correspondent Graham Smith was at the hotel earlier and spoke to Chris and some of the demonstrators.

Chris Logan (through megaphone/PA system): I'm here to give you the truth, the real truth. Not the falsehoods that Google or Apple tell you and the politicians who brownnose them. Your government are listening to your phone calls, your government are planting bugs where you sleep and a lot of their plans are being put together behind these doors here.
Graham Smith: Chris Logan is a passionate shock jock and conspiracy theorist, known for his controversial opinions on government secrecy. He arrived this morning to address the crowd and give his support to the protest. I spoke to him just after he addressed the crowd and offered his support.
Chris Logan: Well I don't need to tell you Graham since you're a news reporter for the mainstream mass media that lie to us every day, helping the governments of the world spread their lies and disinformation. It's all on the public record, and I'm here all day telling the good people who've come out here to protest here about the way our politicians and Apple and Google wanna take over our lives. We need our rights protected, we wanna be free citizens of our countries whether it's here or America or anywhere else in the world.
Graham Smith: That was American shock jock and activist Chris Logan talking to me about the conference which continues all this week. Graham Smith, outside the Royal Hotel in St Albans.
News presenter: Now, if you're over 20 years old you'll probably remember what was one of the biggest and most successful Hollywood franchises of all time. The Lords of the Galaxy trilogy dominated cinemas over the world over 20 years ago, but it's been announced this morning that the franchise will continue with another trilogy, and that the 3 new films will be coming home to Hertfordshire once again. Shenley Studios, where the originals were filmed, will again host the cast and crew for the filming which will begin shooting next year. Director Scott Griffin, who started the franchise in 1984, made the announcement at the studios earlier today.
*sound of camera shots and background noise*
Scott Griffin: "I understand that people do look back and enjoy the Lord of the Galaxy movies and there have been rumors that I am going continue the story of Jack Parker. Well I'm here to address those rumors and to proudly announce that in January 2015, I'll begin filming for what will be the first new Lords of the Galaxy movie for 20 years, and we're coming home to Shenley Studios, which is a place that's meant a lot to me.
News Presenter: The director was sketchy on the details of how the original story would continue, or about which of the original cast will be returning, but has promised fans that all will be revealed over the coming months.
News Presenter: In other news, fifteen men aged between 19 and 25 have been arrested by police on suspicion of growing cannabis. A factory in a house in Radlett containing over 400 cannabis plants was raided last night by Hertsmere police. Sgt Neil Morris, who lead the investigation, told reporters that this was part of wider action to control the county's drug trade.

Our Sports Correspondent Andy Scholes has more, Andy.
Andy Scholes: Thanks Keith. An extraordinary event yesterday with another local game postponed. Before the game had even got to half-time, all hell had broken loose as both fans ran onto the pitch in the 39th minute following an exchange of abusive chanting between both team's crowds before the match started. The historical rivalry between the two teams has already resulted in 4 incidents of violence in the last 5 seasons. No-one was seriously hurt but 20 people were treated for light injuries and 40 arrests were made. I spoke to Chesham manager Terry Mitchell at Oakland Park earlier today, and he told me was disgusted by some of his team's supporters.
Terry Mitchell: "It's a disgrace that we've got a minority of fans like this. Football is not about violence. Its about competition, passion and banter. It's unfair on the lads to have to stop playing a great game of football just for their safety. No one needs to stop playing football all of a sudden over some yobbos. I'm doing what I can to make sure we've got more police and more security staff at the stadium from now on."
Andy Scholes: Both clubs have referred the case to the Non-League Football Board, who've announced they'll be investigating the problem between the teams over the coming weeks. Back to you Keith.
Keith McQueen: Thanks Andy.
