2. We made a radio trailer as its another medium to advertise our documentary, the adverts are also
linked as we have used the same music as featured in the beginning of the documentary. This
ensures that there is a connection between them as they use some of the same content, some vox
pops have also been used in conjunction with this to anchor meaning with the documentary early
on. The song used starts with the words “good morning”, this reinforcing the theme of the
documentary, this also grabs the audience’s attention and makes them wonder what the advert is
about before the voiceover begins. The radio trailer was produced in adobe premier pro which is the
same as the video.
The voiceover was recorded in the recording booth in our college, we used a program called
audacity to record the input from the microphone ensuring the correct levels were set, not too high
so the audio wouldn’t be muffled and not too quiet so she couldn’t be heard. We started the editing
with the vox pops and then the voiceover until but then improved the advert by having an intro with
the music first and then having the voiceover, this introduces the documentary better and also
allows us to place vox pops inside the voiceover so it’s more interesting to listen to.
3. As you can see in the picture we faded some of the tracks so they flowed better and wasn’t a harsh
difference between some of them by jumping through the clips. The music bed also lasted through
the entire length of the advert except the part where the voiceover says what channel and time the
documentary is on, during this part the music quietens in order to not distract the attention from
the information.
The main tool we used in premier was the slice tool to split the clips up and then we either used a
fade transition found in the audio transitions section of the effects panel or left it as it is. The vox
pops were taken from the video clip and were unlinked so that the audio could be separated from
the video and moved freely.
