Rushes: The rushes are all useable as they are high quality and there are no background noises. There was part of a clip during the Millie's phone call where I had to cut as she began stuttering however it wasn't completely bad and was very easily fixed. All of the clips are able to be used however if there was any clips that had background noise I would have to re-record them.  Throughout the process of recording I improved as I learned how to set up the equipment and learned how to record on Adobe Audition and how to put the audio together and add effects on Premier Pro.

A radio show cannot be created without microphones as it is needed for the audio. Headphones: Headphones are required when including guests on the show so that you can hear what they are saying. Also, if you are talking to someone in person or have multiple hosted then everyone will need there own pair. It's better to have a audio splitter incase the computer only has one audio jack.  Just incase the guests have preferences to do with e

In this post, I will research the legal and ethical issues of a radio show that I must take into account when making my own radio show. I will also discuss the regulatory bodies that relate to a radio show. Ofcom: The Office of Communications (Ofcom) is a regulatory body that sets laws for radios. All radio shows must have their own license to produce and publish. There are codes on their website that states what every radio show must follow: ASA: The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) regulates all advertisements on the radio.  There are codes on their website that everyone must follow, there are separate codes for broadcast and non-broadcast adverts: Legal: There are many different laws and regulations I need to follow to ensure my radio show is legally and ethically correct. There will be punishments that would be enforced if I do not follow these things, such as going to prison, being sued for copyright infringement, cause offence to people. In this report, I will discuss the di
