D1: How Codes and Conventions Have Been Met

Codes and Conventions Explained The codes and conventions of the true crime radio genre are embedded in your radio show in the following ways: Music: In true crime radio shows, music is used to enhance the suspense and tension of the stories being told. The use of suspenseful backing tracks in your radio show aligns with this convention, as it helps to create an eerie and mysterious atmosphere for the audience. The music chosen should complement the content of the show, and be used to heighten the drama and emotion of the story being told. Script: The script for the presenters, which starts with an introduction, covers a real-life true crime story, and includes call-ins from listeners, aligns with the format of true crime radio programmes that aim to educate and engage the audience.

Offline edit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qK-yN_g7FE The offline edit for Hit & Run Radio was edited and split / cut on Adobe Audition and arranged accordingly in order. It was then imported into Premiere Pro to export as an MP4 and upload toYouTube.

While doing this, we also ensured that the audio levels were fine and that we had no technical difficulties. If any issues were encountered, they were edited and fixed in Adobe Audition.

Final Edit

Final Edit: https://youtu.be/xE0J4p3XgAo Process: The link above is the final edited version of the radio programme. Just as mentioned in the edit log, the programme only contained suitable recordings and was structured as planned. Prior to creating the final edit, I first created an offline edit. This allowed me to piece together the show and give a brief idea of how it would flow and come together. To do this, I used the script as a guide. I organised it in this way: Introduction Song 1 (Bad Habit) Introduction to 'Into the Archives' Song 2 (Seventeen Going Under) Introduction to ad break Advert (Ring doorbell) Welcoming listeners back and introducing callers section Phone call 1 Phone call 2 Ending call section Song 3 (Running Up That Hill) Interaction with listeners from reading song suggestion text Song 4 (Somebody's Watching Me) Ending the show To make the editing process easier and more organised, I first labelled each of the tracks on the multitrack project.
