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.

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.
