M1 Structure of a Radio Station

 














Introduction 

In this report, I will look into the structure of a radio station. The radio station I have chosen to analyse and discuss is the Airport Information Radio (AIR), and I have discussed this same radio station in my other documents for this unit. For M1, I am required to listen to a program from my chosen station, however the Airport Information Radio stopped operating in the 1990s so there is no active programs for me to listen to and analyse. Although, I did research into the AIR radio station and was able to find audio footage of the radio show.

By listening to this old radio broadcast from the Airport Information Radio, I am now able to discuss the content on the program, the structure of it, and any minor details or choices made by the crew and presenters.

Unit 15 D1: Compare and Contrast Approaches

 Introduction  In this report, I will discuss the comparisons and contrasts of the messages of audio visuals promos. I will analyse and compare the choice of multiple different key aspects like the audience, approaches, narrative and stylistic choices like the use of graphics, camera shots and editing. I have chosen two audio visual promos that I have previously analysed in my P1 document for this unit.  Promo 1  TV AD | Barclays | Digital Safety (youtube.com) Promo 2 Ed's Heinz Ad (youtube.com) Compare the Audience Firstly, the target audience for both the Barclays Digital Safety Promo and the Ed's Heinz Ad promo are undoubtedly different; this is due to the fact that both the audio visual promos have different purposes and exist in completely different markets. Due to the fact that the Barclays promo is to inform, they want to inform as many people as possible, meaning their target audience is quite broad, however I believe that the primary target audience for this promotion

P1: Describe the different radio industry operations

 Describe the different radio industry operations Introduction In this report, I am going to outline the different types of radio stations and go in depth on each type and the differences between them.  Public Radio In the UK, public radio stations are the BBC radio stations e.g. Radio 1 and Radio 2. However, this also includes the local stations like BBC Radio Sheffield or Trax FM when it still existed. Public Radio is funded by the Government and by the license fee the general public pay; due to this, it means that they cannot explicitly promote products or advertise on their stations. Public radio have to be careful with the content they produce due to being funded by the government and license fee. They also don't have competitions that offer cash prizes. They have some of the highest listener numbers in the UK with approximately 14.9 million listeners tuning in to Radio 2 every week.  According to RAJAR, all BBC radio stations had a population of 56,348(000s). The BBC's ra

B&Q Build a Life Campaign The B&Q Build a Life campaign revitalized perceptions of the B&Q brand. The purpose was to show the public that home improvement isn't just for builders, its for everyone, and the life you want can be built yourself with a little work and help from B&Q. The campaign ran through 2019 and 2020. The purpose of the document is to report on the quality of the B&Q Build a Life Campaign and goes into thorough detail about each aspect of the campaign and why it was so successful. Aims and Objectives  The aims and objectives for the B&Q Build a Life campaign are clear; it changed the way that the majority of the public view the B&Q brand. A vast amount of people believe they aren't capable of completing their own home improvement work or DIY work and that they would require a builder or someone professional to be able to do it for them. However, B&Q aimed to alter those views and create a more positive and 'Can do' attitu
