• Dear BBC
• I am writing to you to ask permission upon the right of using match of the day
theme track. Our collage are producing an interviews based on educational
purposes upon football.We will be posting this on an unpopular channel on
YouTube just so our examiner can mark it. We want to use the match of the
day theme song as background music for our interview. Can we have your
permission to let us use the theme song?
• Yours Sincerely
• Students from Leyton sixth form collage

3. Sound Check
• Sound checks are used to make sure that the sound systems which are being used are clear and at the
right volume and tonal frequencies. Sound checks are especially important in music events such as
gigs, radios, podcasts and pretty much anything that includes music and speaking. SoWhen we are
producing our podcast we will be checking on the sound and making sure that the setting of recording
levels is good, will we try to produce our podcast in an acoustic quiet environment this is so there will
be no exterior sound because you might be as quiet as a mouse, but the world outside is a noisy place.
And because we are in a college there will be lots of students talking so to avoid all the nose we will try
to find acoustic environments so we can isolate the background noises. Also we must avoid the
proximity effect which is when there is an increasing bass of frequencies as a directional microphone
comes close to the sound source.This makes the recording sound not as good and muffled so as I said
to avoid this we will try to find acoustic environments such as recording studios or rooms with not
many hard shiny surfaces such as tables, whiteboards etc.This is because sound bounces off of these
objects and causes reverb and echoes which will travel through and be heard in the recording.This is
known as interior sound it is airborne sound inside rooms, and how it propagates and interacts with
the room’s surfaces and objects. But it’s also about perception of the room’s acoustic properties too.
Also when we are holding the microphone we must also make sure that we are not too close to it so
that voices can be clearly heard and not sound fluffed and muffled.To avoid this we will stand 2 inches
away from the microphone when any of us speaks. In addition to this when we have our equipment we
must make sure that it is all correctly working and that the microphone is clearly picking up the voices
which are talking.We can check this by using a test on the microphone and then listening back to it to
see if it has picked up the sound or not.When we are editing our podcast on Logic will also be able to
listen back to our audio to see if it has correctly all been picked up by the mic.

9. Health and safety (risk assessment)
• Watch out for wire cable’s across the floor that will tangle up and cause
distress.
• Make sure the surface is clear and water free, otherwise that will cause
danger people who are walking past to fall over.
• Make sure the interviewee and interviewer doesn’t hold the microphone
too close otherwise the sound levels will be off point and possibly
dangerous (as the mic can explode).
• Be careful with the environment that you’re filming in. For example, if
you’re filming in a busy area make sure it is eco-friendly and clear of
hazards.
• I would advise the area to be quiet and peaceful.
