What I had learnt from technologies whilst constructing my media product

From using Adobe Audition for the first time I had learnt the trade of it all. I have expertise in near enough all of the Adobe Programmes and many other programs as well. Adobe Edition for me took me getting to because It had many functions that I had no idea of. It was impressive the way you can cut parts you dont need and how you can blend and pan the recordings.
Also in Adobe Audition you could undo mistake and un-numerable amount of times thus making it more easy to use.
I had also used facilities such as they have radio stations have: recording studio, mix board etc. When I first saw it I was quite confused on not knowing how to use it but over the period of months I had adapted to it. I think that the eqipment that i had worked with was very high standard and thus more easier to understand due to the quality having clarity and proffessionalism

How did I attract my Intended audience?

I attended to attract my audience by following some of the conventions that I had picked up from my deconstructions of radio broadcasts. So as all youth attended broadcasts start off with lively music that I followed aswell as broadcasting stories such as Knife Crime and A Level results thus targeting teenagers and as teenagers like following trends for any weather conditions I had included that also to aware my attended audience.

The audience of my Media Product.

My intended audience for my media product would be every teenager that lived in the NW London region. The Gender, Ethnicity and Religion of my intended audience all vary due to NW London being such a multi cultural and diverse area, so there wouldnt be a specific Gender,Religion or Ethnicity.

What Media Institution might distribute My Media Product and why

I personally think that a local radio station will broadcast my station this will be because it has been structured and presented to fit into a local radio broadcast/station which would be based in North West London.

How my Media Product Represents particular social groups

In my 5 minute radio jingle I worked in a group which consisted of mixed nationalities. My group members were Nathan, Zeinab, Hadiya and Me. As a group we each had a part to play in the recordings and what things were going to be said and in what way. Nathan was my outside broadcast presenter reporting a serious story, Zeinab was the Health Education Officer which made an visit to the radio station and Hadiya who reported a somewhat hilarious story.

My Media Product can represent my intended audience which are teenagers on the go. This can be shown by the various techniques that I have used such as upbeat music and quick and snappy stories.

How does my media product use, develop or challnge forms of conventions in real media product?

My completed Media Product does follow some of the conventions of a radio broadcast. The conventions that it follow's is that of the speed of how the stories are read and what stories are presented as well as how long they spend on each story. I also use a theme tune which also helps recognise the radio station or broadcast that my intended audience is listening to.
I had attempted to add some interesting sounds which are rarely used on broadcasts as well as adding A upbeat sound which helps the audience stay in tune.

The Putting together of my Radio Jingle on Adobe Audition

24/02/2009( THE WORK IN PROCESS) - 27/03/2009 ( COMPLETED)

As I had recorded the parts I utmostly needed. I went on a computer and started a long process of choosing the Correct recording as some of them had many mistakes. I had chosen my recordings and started to compile and add them to the progam were I can cut certain bits out, pan the recordings as well as adding the right sound effects.

I had to add right sound effects so it is perfect for the time of day aswell as sharing the link with my intended audience. As I have mentioned in my Past Entries.

Through out the two months I had done many recordings with my group in which we edited differently afterwards.We had to write out the scripts to have as less mistakes as possible whilst in the recording studio even though we could cut out the little mistakes with Adobe Audition.

When I had recorded my my 5 minute radio jingle I had to construct it in such a way that it flows and sounds as professional as possible. I had visited a website were you could get free sound samples which I had used effectively as possible. I had used conventions of an radio broadcast such as Theme Tunes, Voxpop, a Serious Story as well as an Humorous story.

I had took so long to complete my radio jingle due to customising my Radio Jingle and tweaking it as much as I could from advice and criticisms from my peers. I had re- recorded certain parts of recordings due to it sounding unclear so it was near clear quality.

When I had deconstructed radio broadcasts I had picked out the conventions I wanted to use and I had picked up on how the tone and speed of it was and what stories were being broadcasted. I had added sounds in between stories so listeners can differentiate and so It flows quickly and efficiently.

When I had finished my editing I was satisfied I had realised that whilst listening to it wearing headphones the sound differentiated from how it sounded from my speakers so I left it as it will take alot of time on a tight schedule to redo alot of parts
