Rough script for news story 3

-

Presenter

Students of Brookland secondary school, St Martin secondary school and Duncombe secondary school are all hosting performances, In light of raising awareness for Abella Caron, who has been captured and detained outside of her home country France, for ‘inappropriate dress’ whilst visiting Iran on a work trip. These performances will all be taking place in April and Head teachers of all three schools are hoping their students will manage to spread awareness. 

North Side FM's Bella Harris spoke to students and parents of the school’s backstage after the shows, in order to ask them why they felt it was so important to draw attention to Abella Caron’s story.

Vox Pop 1 (Mother of student at Brooklands):  I think it’s extremely important for my children to be educated about global issues, such as this. 

Vox Pop 2 (Student at Dumcombe Primary school): I love to perform and learn new information. I also think this will be a good way to teach everyone about what is happening in the world today.


 News values: 
Familiarity: The schools which are raising awareness are within the local area; they're geographically close to us
Amplitude: This is a big event which involves all the students at each of the schools
Predictability: There have been many previous events of schools doing things in order to raise awareness of global issues
Continuity: The story about Abella Caron has previously been defined as news
Elite people: Abella is an elite person as her story about being captured and detained has been spread around globally 

Target audience:


This news story is a suitable for my target audience as they are within the age range where they should be aware of these global issues. Moreover, some of the youngest listeners to my show may be taking part in the secondary school performances.

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...
