Rough script for news story 1

-
News story 1:

 Presenter:  

Two arrests have come about in Muswell Hill yesterday afternoon; in response to a protest held by angry residents in disagreement of new night club opening, specialising in Grime music. Local tenants are worried about the increase in crime rates and angrily fought with club owner Simon Wood over prevention of the opening in July going forward.  Local resident Lisa Freeman spoke to our report before scenes turned ugly yesterday.

*Interview*

Reporter (Eli Caine): Hi, I am here today in the midst of the march against the introduction of grime nights within the opening of new nightclub in Muswell Hill.
Certain residents have argued that the club will increase crime rates; leading to break ins, noise disruption, an increase in rubbish on the streets as well as encouraging antisocial behaviour.

 *Noises of protest*

Reporter: Lisa Freeman is a local resident from within the idea, and she feels extremely strongly about abandoning the club opening.  Lisa could you please give us a rough summery on why you feel so strong about the issue?

LISA: Since having lived in this neighborhood for over 10 years, i've unfortunately had to witness the once peaceful area develop into an increasingly higher crime spot. I've only noticed these rates dramatically getting worse by every new 'social spot' which appears to be opened. I am worried that the already over-stretched police in the area will struggle to be able to cope with the opening of yet another club. It is time our voices were heard, and something dramatic is done to resolve this issue. 

NEWS PRESENTER: Mr Wood was unavailable for comment. In other news...

News values:
Familiarity: story has happend within local area; Muswell Hill
Impact: Story has a profound effect on people living within the area's lives who argue the club opening is going to attract crime
Surprise: Due to the many elders living in Muswell Hill, this area isn't typically expected to be engaging in the opening of a grime club 
Conflict: The story contains drama in describing disagreements in regards to the people who are fighting to prevent the club opening; I am including a protest
Scandal: The story is likely to provoke moral outrage from parts of the audience who are passionately against the opening

Target audience:


This story will be interesting to my target audience, as my radio show is aimed at ages 15-35. Therefor, the main sector of my audience is young people, who would be very interested in the opening of a new club, as it may be something they'd like to try out with friends. The older members of my audience would find this story appealing as they may agree that the club opening is a bad idea. The news story is also appealing to both genders.

Different types of jingles

-
After listening to a variety of different radio stations, I have concluded that there a number of different kinds of jingles on each station.  The site below includes many of the different types of jingles. I have used this as part of my research.  http://www.music4.com/radiojingles 1) Weather Jingles  -The tone of weather jingles are usually a lot softer than other jingles -They sometimes include sound effects (e.g. of the weather) -Weather jingles for weather reports are usually played in the morning, so listeners have an outlook for the rest of their day  -Weather jingles will include the name of their station, and often have the word 'weather' at the end  -Companies usually sponsor weather jingles 2) Travel and traffic Jingles  -Travel and traffic jingles include the name of the station, with the word travel or traffic at the end -These jingles do not always have music playing, sometimes they will have sounds of traffic in at the end -Th...

Dissimilar radio websites

After having looked at two radio websites which are similar to my radio station, I am now going to look at two radio websites which are dissimilar to my radio station. These two websites are going to be Magic and Talk Sport.  Magic radio website Magic's website has clearly been directed towards an older audience. Despite the colour scheme still being bright and appealing for younger people, and both genders, the presenter is older than the presenters on the other radio stations. This suggests that an older audience will tune into Magic as may feel as though what is being played is directed towards them more.  Unlike Radio 1 and Magic, these artists, such as Billy Jones, are more suited to an older audience as they are not as contemporary.  This image on their website references the 80's, which is a time period directed toward an older audience.  https://talksport.com/ Sports stations are usually targeted at male audiences; all...

Representation in News presenters

Throughout this post I am going to explore the ways in which News presenters come across to the audience whilst presenting the radio show. For instance, I will be taking note of voices used, language, 'banter', tone of voice and interactions with other presenters. In order to do this, I will be looking at two completely opposite types of radio stations; Kiss  and Magic. By doing this will help me to create the scripting for my own news bulletin.  The first radio show I am going to be looking at is Kiss. There were two presenters on this show, a young male and female. They both spoke in an informal manner, with a slow relaxed voice as well as having 'banter' with each other. An example of this is when they both started singing the lyrics to a Rihanna song, whilst laughing about it.  The second radio show news bulletin which I listened too was from Magic. The presenter on this show was an Older woman. Unlike the presenters on Capital, she spoke in a much more cl...
