notes on radio jingles
Evaluation of jingles
I had to make radio jingles for a radio promo, a radio ident and a news one. Things to put in a jingle were that it could have music voices and also some sound effects are some of things that you could put in a jingle. We had to make it for a particular radio station which was SNC live. For the promo I was going to make it based on a breakfast show which could not be any longer than one minute. So for the promo I put the background song as good times and edited that down to make it fit into the sound effects and my voice. I then put in my sound effects which were bells and rings and I put them at the start of the promo. And put bell effects at the end to. I put my voice a couple of seconds after the bells had at the start and played a bell after my speech had finished. I recorded my voice straight into the Mac which was easy to use by just pressing the record button and speak into the microphone on the Mac. The microphone was at the top of the Mac. When I did the recording I did get some noise from the background of people talking in the background when recording. But it happened in the radio ident which wasn’t my best one so it didn’t mess it up to much. I used Sound booth which was the program that I used. When I saved my work I had to save it as a mp3 file. I was able to put it all together easily which helped. The promo was the better one of the three that I did.
The second jingle that I did was the radio ident which I just said SNC line which I put an effect to the voice. It was about five seconds long. I put some bomb sound effects in the background of me saying SNC live. I would have wanted to put a song in the background but didn’t have any songs with me to use. But if I did have some songs with me I would of out one in. I was sort of happy with my radio jingle but maybe could have been a bit longer.
My third jingle was the radio news jingle which I put sound in the background but didn’t have any songs so just had to put some sound effects on. All I said was that the news is on weekdays at 6pm on SNC live. I wasn’t really happy with my radio jingle because it wasn’t longer enough. It was the one that was worse one of ones that I did.
Overall I was happy with the show promo but not to happy my other two which were the news and the ident. If I was the do it again I would put some more songs on to make it more inserting.

To make the pinhole camera I had to get a box and paint the inside of box black so there was no unwanted light in the box bouncing around. I paint mine with a couple of coats to make sure. I then had to make a square hole in the side of the box. To put my pinhole in the foil which I put over the square. I made the pinhole by putting a pin through the foil. Then I had to make the shutter I got a square piece of cardboard bigger enough to cover the pinhole then just got a piece tape to be made as a flap to cover. Covered all the sides with tape to make sure the box was light tight.
When I did it I had to expose the pinhole for one minute outside and twenty minutes for being inside. After I had waited I went into the darkroom then I put the photographic paper in the chemicals then some water to fix the photo. Then had to dry the picture and see what it was like.
