Sam Tied Down Final

Radio Advert Final

Newspaper Advert Final

I added the Tied Down Studios logo to help fill some space. I feel that this makes it look more professional because it is simplistic and doesn't make it feel too cluttered as it matches quite well with the background.

Tied Down Studios Logo

I felt that I needed to create a logo to fill space on my newspaper advert which would fill space. I wanted to use something similar to what I had in the logo for Sam Tied Down so I used the down arrow with a tie. I also wanted to make it clear that it was a tie on a shirt so a created a collar outline.

Newspaper advert draft 2

I made this newspaper advert draft based on feedback yay 

Tied Down Final Focus Group

I showed my class my 4th draft of Sam Tied down and recorded their verbal feedback

Tied Down radio advert draft 2

For this version of the radio advert I used the same music as the first draft but used a different script and added a short sound clip from my main production at the end. This still feels incomplete so I've decided I'm going to add some more sound clips from my documentary a the end.

Careers Event Feedback

I attended a creative careers event which was being hosted at our school so I could get some feedback from a variety of different people. I got a few on the 3rd draft of the documentary and some on my newspaper advert. The main bit or criticism on the documentary was that the colour on the side angle was too different to the rest of the footage of Sam in the shed. People did feel that the music was used effectively. For the newspaper advert people felt that the text needed to be marginalised. I hadn't noticed that the text was out of line. Some people felt that the title wasn't attention grabbing enough and needed to be larger or bolder to grab attention. Some people also felt that 'the untied story' had too much spacing between it. Some people also felt that the edges needed to be smoother so I am going to make changes accordingly.

Sam Tied Down - Radio Advert - Draft 1

This is the first draft of my radio advert. I'm going to add some audio clips from the documentary.
This is the script that was used for this draft of the radio advert.  https://docs.google.com/document/d/19o4b7uvVDn2j0Vb7NxcagrWLmZqp3cv3eKEuYqn81fE/edit?usp=sharing

Radio Advert Recording

We decided to record the advert in my bedroom because it meant we could record the sound directly to my pc and I could edit it from there without having to transfer it. It was also good because there was no echo in the room and little background noise. We used CAD audio U37 because it's more clear than the alternatives. 

This is Sam recording the radio advert and reading the script on the right screen.

Draft 2 Initial Feedback

I got some feedback on my second draft saying that the audio on the 'Getting to know me ep.1' clip was too distracting so I decided I would remove the audio on that clip entirely. I was also told that the clip of him standing outside of the shed felt a bit forced. I may include a clip of him talking outside of his house which would add some context and explain that he lives there. I was also told that I should add some scenes of him at work or in a kitchen because of how much he talks about it and possibly add some more cut aways because of how many of the same angle of him looking at the camera is used.
