Radio 1 podcast evaluation

What was the task you were assigned?

We had to make a 3 minute audition to be the new R1BS presenter. We had to include a jingle, a celebrity interview, play a British song, news and weather, public interaction.

Who was in your group and what was everyone's role in the task?

Tom and Joe. My role was the main presenter, Tom was presenting the News, weather and was our British artist, Joe was our member of the public calling in and doing the quiz.

What fresh ideas did you bring to the programme?

Our prize for the quiz had never been offered before - cash

Who did you interview?

We didn't have an interview.

What tracks did you choose and why?

We played Right Here by Jess Glynne. We chose this because she is a young British artist.

What was the running order?
We did the news and weather first, then played a song and finished of by quizzing a listener.

Who is your target audience?

Teenagers and young adults - 15-20.

How did you relate to/attract your audience?
We used interesting news topics which young people would find interesting.

How does your product fit in with the BBC/PSB remit?
We played a song to promote British artists, we educated through the news and quiz, and entertained through the quiz and music.

What do you think you could have improved in terms of content?

We should have added a celebrity interview, added background jingle throughout.
What was your initial feedback? 

What did others say about your production?
They said we had good enthusiasm and inclusion of certain topics, but we were missing some things such as the celebrity interview.
