Recently I have been creating my radio advert for the ancillary task for my full project.
As with most new programmes, it initially took me a fair amount of time to get used to it. Although, after learning the basics around GarageBand, I started to find it quite easy to start making my advert, especially after I found the people that I wanted to use as speakers, as it is as simple as just speaking and recording at first.
At the beginning I thought that I would not enjoy the radio advert task at all, but I have actually ended up enjoying it and finding it quite fun.
As well as having speech in my advert, I also need effects, as well as background music. For effects, I used a website named SoundBible, which I have been told is reliable by my teacher, and it is a website that enables people to both upload and download a various amount of effects from a vast library. Also, it is extremely simple to use this website, as it downloads the file in MP3 format, ready to use straight away in iTunes, and then ready to be imported into GarageBand to be incorporated into my advert.
As for the background music, I have not yet fully decided on which track I will use. I have had a few preliminary ideas, the main one being Aloe Blacc's 'I Need A Dollar', as I think the beat would make for a good background. One problem I have encountered although, is that the intro to the song only lasts for approximately 15 seconds before the singing comes in. Because of the singing, it hinders the ability to hear me speaking about my newspaper. To combat this, my idea was to search for an instrumental version of this track, in hope that it will stay as just background music, and not overpower the actual purpose of the advert.
