radio play effects

sound effects happen in two different ways.
1. live sounds
2. pre recorded sound
make a list of all the sound effects your play needs. Include what materials/ props are required, plus when and where any recording is to be done.

The real and final script performance

DIARY 16/12/09

Today in our music lesson, we went to the studio and started practicing our radio play. It was a hard and long day but i think we were able to pull through and produce a good enough piece of work
THE FINAL EVALUATION

  • My role in the performance was to act as a detective and a few unknown people.

  • My main responsibility was to make sure that i am able to change my voice as quick as possible when switching from characters to characters. I also needed to make sure i have a good flow with my characters so the whole performance don't seem too fake and un- organize. The other responsibility i had to make sure i keep together was the sound effects, i have to have the right timing and play the right tone.
  • The tasks for the final preparation will be to get the xylophone to use for the tanoy the pilot speaks through.

  • We will be using the xylophone, Our scripts, the mic, the stands and that is the main things we will be using.

  • to make sure we work safely, we will keep rechecking that everything is in place and that we are fully organized, able to decide on tough decisions and able to support each other even with the huge mistakes

Unit 2 Performance 19/11/09 radio play

Today we all made the decision that the pilot will end up having a heart attack instead of somebody murdering him. It was a fuss at first on deciding what the main thing that happened is going to be. We all had many ideas like 'The co-pilot murdering the main pilot' 'Lightning struck the plane at the front, giving the pilots a real shock' and then our last and final idea was to ' let the pilot have an heart attack, without a co- pilot being there.

A radio play is a form of audio storytelling on the radio. Sound effects help the reader to picture and imagine what is going on in the story. Radio plays now are old fashioned but people still listen to them on the radio or you can have records. A radio play is so different to the music radio. The radio play is much harder, and the reader must focus and make it interesting so people don't get bored very easily.
There are different types of radio plays such as thrillers, comedy, soap operas and mysteries.

Unit 2 performance-Radio play idea

It starts off when everyone is on the plane going to America but then half way through, the lights start to off and everything strange happens. Everyone starts to get worried and wonders what is going on but no one knows what to do. People start to realise the plane is getting lower but when the air hostess goes to see the captain to see what is happening she See's that the pilot is dead so someone must of done it on the plane but would still be on the plane, so they try to find out who it is. In the end someone on the plane tries to fly the plane and they survive. In the background there are noises of people talking fast and sounding worried. At the start before all of that happens the air hostess are going to be talking and then when the end happens you can see the change in them. Even though everyone survived they didn't find the person who killed the pilot and at the end. There will be kids screaming but its a film that they will be watching and there will be noises of people talking about america.
The characters will be the air hostess, kids, one main person and background noises.

My character will be a young detective who was trying to go on holiday but it had to be postpone because of the whole incidence on the plane. I will be one of the first people the staff members of the plane reportS to about the whole problem, considering he is the law. My reaction to the whole incidence will be very shocking, to think there is a killer on the plane and im a detective, so their all going to depend on me to find out who it is and how were going to land the plane.

UNIT 2- RADIO PLAY PERFORMANCE PLANNING 10/11/09

Group members:
Dennis
James
Helen

It all started when me, Helen and james are on a plane going to america. Were all settled in on the plane then all of a sudden the lights started to dim and the plane felt like it was slightly landing. We all thought there was just a simple technical fault with the plane that could be fixed but when i went to one of the women and asked what's wrong she told me that the pilot had collapsed and nobody is flying the plane. Im a cop who is on vacation with Helen and James, so considering that i'm a police officer, i was the first person the planes service women reported to. Helen started to panic so she quickly ran all the way from first class to the lower classes, screaming out to ever one of the drama taking place. This is going to make the other people on the plane panic and going to put me under pressure as well.
