Construction Of Radio Advert


Radio Advert script:

Ever felt like your invisible to the people around you?
Like you your trapped in a body that isn’t yours?
I have. My name is Jonathan and I’m one of thousands just like you.
I knew Maisie once, poor girl was the worst I’ve ever seen.
Her boyfriend cheated on her and her rapid deterioration was all but discrete.
If you were depressed and felt like the only way of escaping the pain was to escape the world which you are trapped in, what would you do?
Would you seek help, in the ones you love and hope to improve, or would you give in to that internal urge to just give up. The itch from within that you can never quite reach.
Maisie took the latter, and now her wrists are the constant reminder of the mistake.

 When making the radio advertisement form my short film, I had to come up with a script that would not only engage the listener, but also possess common themes within that were present in my theme. Thus, the script above in my opinion possessed all of these. The image above shows the first stages of the assembling of my radio advert where I recorded on a recording device and uploaded the file to garageband where I could further edit it.



The next challenge I faced was the sound of breathing in-between the speaking parts of the file. Through using a clipping tool in garageband, I was able to cut out small sections of the audio, to make it sound more smooth and professional.



The final change I had to make to the radio advertisement was the background music. I felt that the advertisement was lacking in excitement or interesting features. As a result, I added an instrumental track, to accompany the sound of the voice in the advertisement. By doing this, the piece sounded far more professional, and was much more engaging.
