Emma is planning a podcast project that will involve recording voice actors in the college studio. She has booked the studio and microphones for May 3rd. Her backup plan is to record audio on her phone if equipment is unavailable. She will edit the recordings using Adobe Audition and GarageBand on a college computer. The script includes interview segments and songs. Emma has permission from actors Elliott, Andina, Holly and Charlie to use their voices. Safety procedures are in place to prevent risks like tripping or overheating in the studio.

3. Locations
The college studio-
The studio should be available if I book, in advanced. This
will be a free location for me to record my audio in peace.
The limitations and risk of the studio are that if the studio
is unavailable for any reason, I will have to rethink
location which is why I have a backup option in case this
happens or if it’s not quiet enough. The weather
shouldn’t affect my recording as my location is indoors.
However, if it is raining or windy, the sound may pick up
on the recording. This will mean I will need to edit out
background sound, if necessary, with the noise reduction
tool. I can also shut the windows if needed to help reduce
some of the background sound when recording. As I
won’t be using any of the screens or other equipment in
the studio and will only be using the table to sit at whilst
recording, there shouldn’t be as many risks and hazards
but me and my cast will need to be careful of any
equipment in the studio.

4. Equipment
There isn’t a lot of equipment that I will need to make my
podcast. The only things I require are a voice
recorder/microphone to record on and a computer to
edit on.
Microphone-
I will get all kit needed, from college. The only equipment
I will need is a couple of microphones/audio recorders.
College have ‘Boom Mic, Cable + Handheld’ Microphones
available to book. I have sent a request for a booking for
both the studio and the microphones, however, If this
isn’t available, I will use my phone to record the audio.
However, if possible, it would be a lot better and more
professional sounding and clearer audio.
Computer-
I will also need access to a computer which will be
available all around college at all times. I will be using this
to edit and transfer my audio onto adobe audition which
is what I will be using to put everything together and edit
my final piece.

5. Facilities
I won’t need any specialist facilities for my
project. I will only need access to a computer at
college to create this. I will be using adobe
audition and garage band to create my project.
Garage band-
Garage band I will be using to create my jingle. I
will be using garage band to create the tune for
the jingle and using recorded sound for the
voice over for my jingle.
Adobe audition-
I will be using adobe audition for a variety of
reasons and sections of my production. I will be
using it to edit and create my jingle to add
effects and make it sound clean and
professional. I will also be using it to put all the
clips together and create my project. Splitting
up the interview, adding the songs and editing
the jingle together.

6. Personnel
Crew-
• Me – I have the studio booked for 3rd may
at 10:30-2:45. I may not use the studio for
all this time, but it is available for me to
use when needed.
• Male Artist – Elliott Mountford. Elliott is
available for the time. Have booked in for
the studio. I have planned this in advanced
so that he can get permission if needed to
be out of lesson to record.
• Female Artist – Andina Bispo. Elliott is
available for the time. Have booked in for
the studio. I have planned this in advanced
so that he can get permission if needed to
be out of lesson to record.
• All cast will be asked to eat and drink in
their own time as we can not eat or drink
in the studio. No transport will be needed
as it will be recorded in college.

7. Creative Planning

8. Sound
Effects/Music
I am going to create a jingle using garage band.
This will include a background tune which I will
create on garage band along with a voice clip
which I will edit on audition. I will then edit
these together to create the final jingle.
All songs used will only be a few seconds from
the intro of the song and a few seconds from
the ending of the song. That way it won’t be
copy righted and also it wont make the show
too long. The songs will be faded in and out to
introduce the speaking before the next song.
The songs I am using will be a mix of a playlist
that I created for YorkMix and recent popular
songs. That way it is up to date and more
realistic and professional.

18. Health and Safety
Potential Issue How will the issue be
avoided?
The lights in the studio get hot Stay away from the lights when switched on or
previously on. If burnt, seek a first aid box/help
depending on how severe the injury is.
Tripping on wires Stay away from the wires or tape them onto
the ground. If injured, seek a first aid box/help
depending on how severe the injury is.
Bright Lights Don’t look into the lights, if you feel like you
are losing sight after this seek help.
Ventilation Have windows/doors open at all times when
possible to keep the room well ventilated. This
will also stop the spread of covid if any.
Tripping over bags Keep them out of the way or on the desk. If
injured, seek a first aid box/help depending on
how severe the injury is.
Dehydration Make sure there is water available for all the
actors, make sure you drink plenty, especially
on hot days.
