Omniya Tajni D1: Justify the codes and conventions of the radio genre are embedded within the planned content I believe that with the production of ‘Discovering the delicious desserts’, I have created a product that follows the codes and conventions of lifestyle radio segments. Radio programmes are available in all different mediums. With my radio segment, it was created in order for it to be accessed digitally. This is a code for a radio programmed as audiences have the ability to listen online and download podcasts to their mobile phones.  My radio segment is a lifestyle radio genre. My radio segment includes interviews from 3 different individuals where they speak about a particular topic and the impact it has on them and their lifestyle.  My pre-recorded radio segment includes the lifestyle of individuals. My radio-segment consists of interviews of individuals speaking about their love for desserts and the connections they have with it. This is a convention of a r...

Omniya Tajni M3: Describe legal and ethical considerations required to comply with regulatory bodies for an original media programme Before I record any audio, I need for my radio segment, I need to make sure that I take legal and ethical considerations in order to steer clear of any legal issues that may arise in the production of my radio segment. The first legal issue that I need to address was the release forms. Before I record any audio of the interviewees, I would need to make sure I have consent forms ready with me for them to sign. The reason for this is because they will be able to give me their consent to use and edit their voice and to distribute it when necessary. The reason why getting the interviewees to sign the consent form is so important is because if they didn’t sign anything and they hear their voice in a public platform and they feel uncomfortable with this, they have every right to fine/sue me against this as they didn’t sign anything and this would th...

Omniya Tajni P5: Record an extract of the planned radio programme  Production Diary of the creation for my radio segment - I planned out who I wanted to interview and believe would have a lot to say about the topic I would like to discuss so I narrowed it down to my friend, a mother (family member) and a staff member that works in the dessert restaurants I will be talking about.  - Once I made the decision on whom I wanted to interview, I planned out the questions I would like to ask them based on the topic that I will be discussing, these are the questions I decided to ask the 3 different interviewees: - After I planned out the questions, I planned out dates to interview them where they would be free to sit down and to be interviewed when they are free. Once this was planned, of course I then began interviewing them with the H5 recorders. I also used the software Cartwall to record the presenter sections.  This is evidence of me recording one of my ...

Omniya Tajni P3: Describe the multiplatform distribution methods Multi-platform is a product or system that can work across multiple types of platforms. Radio has several different ways to be accessed and listened by. Analogue Broadcast This radio allows listeners to tune into the analogue stations on FM/AM frequencies from home radio and car equipment. This radio functions by picking up the audio signal from the transmission site, known as carriers. The electrical waves are transmitted from the station to the analogue radio and are transmitted continuously, without any disruption to the sound. The advantages to this radio station is that it is eco-friendly by comparison to digital radios, which are computer driven and are able to transmit a truer version of the original recording. However, tuning into an analogue station is manual and relies on the user selecting the best signal and could be a risk as there could not be any good reception in the particular location the l...

Omniya Tajni P1: Describe the different radio industry operations There are many different radio industries that operate differently for different sectors. These are National Commercial Radio, Public Radio and Internet Radio. They all operate differently for different sectors and are available in different mediums depending on the radio channel itself.  National Commercial Radio A national commercial radio are radio stations that produce revenue through advertising. The advertisements are released by companies which find the commercial radio to be a good medium to take their message to their customers. Absolute Radio is an example of this, it is one of the UK’s three Independent National Radio stations and plays popular rock music. Dave and Mett wake up their listeners every morning and are on top of having the biggest guests and greatest gigs. Listeners are able to choose the music they want to hear on the breakfast show. There are seven options and each is matched ...

Omniya Tajni D2: Evaluate the flow of programme content and audio levels In my radio segment, the client will expect to hear how residents in Tower Hamlets have accessibility to a wide range to dessert/café restaurants in the borough, and members are able to go there to socialise, celebrate an event, or study due to it being local and mobile. I believe that the order of my interviews was quite successful, as I started it off with a friend, followed by a family member and ended with a stranger which is what was required by the client. The only thing that I feel like I should have done was actually interview the stranger, and tell them that it was a staff member at a dessert restaurant. This would have allowed the listeners to know who it is because with the other two interviews I said their name and gave the audience a bit of context such as ‘you are still in college now right?’ and ‘you are a mother of 3 right?’ this enabled the audience to know the name...

Omniya Tajni P5: Record an extract of the planned radio programme  This is the final version of my radio segment This is evidence of me recording one of my interviewees, using the H5 Recorder: I recorded 5 different sound effects that I planned to use in my radio segment.  I used Garage band to edit my sounds and radio. I adjusted the volume levels in order for the sounds to flow in and flow out efficiently. This is evidence of me editing the sound effect of the children playing

Radio programmes are available in all different mediums. With my radio segment it was created in order for it to be accessed digitally. This is a code for a radio programmed as audiences have the ability to listen online and download podcasts to their mobile phones. Although my radio segment is a blind medium I was able to use sound effects to help the listeners visualise what the interviewees are saying in some cases. The sound effects used provide that extra familiarity and is able to set the tone for the listener. In my pre-recorded radio segment I included this a lot. In the first interview I was able to overlap a café atmosphere sound effect, this gives the listeners a sense of fa...
