Context: This week I finished editing my radio demo and then got it sent out to people in the industry who would be able to give me some feedback.
Research:
As in previous weeks, i didn’t need to listen to any radio demos or look into them further,
Practical:
Once I finished and exported my demo I then uploaded it a premier pro project that I had created, I then uploaded the youth’s choice bubble video background and show it down before copying and pasting it multiple times into the project so it fitted the entire length, I also added some text so that my name was on there along with a photo of me. Once this was completed I exported the video in a high-quality low file size format before uploading it to Youtube where I could then share it with anyone who I wanted to give me feedback on it.
SCREENSHOTS OF EDITING:
This Image shows the overall project with the audio track in green that I haven’t touched as all of the work with audio was done in audition.
It shows the background, my presenter image and the text that I put on the video to help identify the demo.
This is the clip speed, I slowed the original clip down as it was only 4 seconds so to save me from having to loop it loads of times I slowed it down, the animation on it normally isn’t that noticeable so doesn’t make much of a difference.
To Use this toll on my Mac I pressed CMD+R And then changed the duration from 100 to 10 to slow it down.
Feedback:
I Messaged A Few radio presenters who I have previously received advice from or just had a chat with and asked if they could give me feedback on the demo. The Message I sent had a small bio about me and then included the link to the demo asking if they could give me any feedback.
People Who I Got In Touch With:
Dave Goodings (Capital)
Rich Clarke (Heart)
Alec Feldman (Hits Radio Network)
Jordan-Lee (KISS & Hits Radio Pride)
And A Few Others
Evaluation:
Overall this week went well, I haven’t got any feedback on the demos yet and I’ve only had a response from 2 of the people I reached out to however as I’m writing this close to when the messages were sent it is early for a reply so hopefully next week I will have some feedback on it. Overall the video creation went well apart from having to export twice due to using the wrong settings. The Finished demo sounds great and also looks good too!
WWW: I Created & Exported The Video From Premier Pro Then Published It To Youtube
EBI: I Only Had to export it and upload it once, however, due to the export settings error I made it had to be done a second time as the first time the dimensions were wrong so i had to change those and the file type to make it smaller but retain the quality.
WWW: I successfully emailed and messaged some people in the industry to get some feedback on my demo
EBI: I had done this earlier in the project to allow for me to get more feedback on it.
