Introduction
Hello, welcome to Ben and I’s presentation for our audio media product
which we have called ‘The Spooky Skeleton
Squad’.
Slide 2
About
Now what is the spooky skeleton squad? Well it
is a comedic fantasy adventure series which follows the lives of 3 skeletons
who are named Arthur, Leanne and Dave.
It is set in a world called the Nether-Reaches
which is a place filled with many frightening creatures and ridiculous
characters. It is all presented in a silly, non-sensical tone.
Slide 3
Now who is it for?
We aim this Amp at children from ages 9-16, as
it features lots of surreal humour and adventurous storylines. Because of this
our AMP fits into the Ofcom pre-watershed guidelines, which means, sexual
references, profanity and drug usage will not be present in the product.
Slide 4
Schedule
Also because of our young target audience our
amp will have a run time of 20 minutes, as we think this is a good time frame
to fit in a good story and short enough to keep the attention of young people.
We also wish for it to be broadcasted at 9am as this is a time when a lot of
young people will be awake. Once being broadcasted we wish to make the AMP
available for download so that anyone who misses it can catch up on the
website.
Slide 5
Sound
Because we have created our own world and
stories our AMP will require many sound effects as a substitute for visuals to
help describe to our audience what is going on.
We also require the use of music to play in the
background in order add emphasis to important scenes like a battle or
introduction of a character.
In order for your to get feel of what our AMP
may sound like we have created a short snippet of a scene where one of our
protagonists meet a crazy old man in a cave.
All our sound effects will be sourced form
royalty free websites and the addresses of websites we use will be mentioned at
the end of the AMP.
Slide 6
Resources
To produce our AMP we will require the use of
these resources:
Microphone, computer, and a Digital Audio Workstation.
Fortunately, we already own these resources at
home and have no need to hire or rent equipment.
Slide 7
Finances
Because our AMP will be produced for Sheffield
Live!, who are a community radio station, we have aimed to spend as little
money as possible.
Our voice actors will be voluntary as they will
be made up of friends and people I know.
As mentioned before, all necessary equipment and
software is all ready covered and all sound effects and music will be royalty
free.
Slide 8
and that’s that. Thank you for listening.
