The document provides a summary and evaluation of an FMP project focused on a podcast. Strengths included research that provided inspiration, and experimentation that informed the final product. Weaknesses included repetition when summarizing researched podcasts. Planning helped structure schedules and brainstorm ideas. Time management allowed completion without stress. The podcast appealed to the target male audience and included requested elements. Audio quality could be improved by balancing voice volume. Peer feedback noted positive use of music but suggested varying film choices and fixing audio levels.

2. Production Process Evaluation

3. Research
Strengths.
Research helped me gain ideas and inspiration to what I can do with my podcast in terms of
tools, sound effects and audio tracks. Researching different podcasts (some that do the
same thing as I did) and learning how they present their shows helped me take notes on
what the tropes are and how can I ad something new to the table. I also looked other
podcast that do their shows in a different format to the review shows (adding music and
sound effects and having it scripted) and seeing if I can translate all that Into my podcast. It
was very easy to find different aspects to each podcast that inspired me to translate to my
own. I also feel that my experiment was a perfect example on what I wanted in my final
product. Research also helped me learn about what language the hosts use in their reviews
and what audience would the shows appeal to which was interesting to me
Weakness.
When writing down about the different shows that I have researched I could not help but
repeat my self about the same thing over and over and I feel that If I was given more time
to research more shows then I would be able to find something different to say rather then
just the same thing about the same podcast over and over again. But other then that I feel
that I have said on what I wanted to say.

4. Planning
• Planning helped me plan out my schedule and when things need to be done
on each day. This was very useful considering how much I had to get done
during editing and recording audio but planning helped me prepare for when
things go wrong such as health and safety issues or if I louse work or if I run
out of time. Planning helped me structure my schedule so that I know what I
am doing on each day.
• I used bubbl.us which is a brain storming website that helps you plan out your
ideas in a mind map. This helped my imagination run wild and as you can see
in this screen shot I had a lot of ideas written down. I thought of different
things I could do with my podcast and how I could present my show by adding
sound effects and music and having everything scripted. Which is something
that has not been done in a review podcast.
As for the negatives I had plans to create certain things that I whished I could
have done but unfortunately did not go through any of it example of this Is the
logos. I had screenshot different logos that I could use inspiration for my own. I
feel like if I was given more time to create a logo then I would be satisfied

5. Time Management
• I feel that I have managed my time very well part of that had to do with
planning it helped me plan my time wisely without procrastinating or
slowing down. I completed my project when I needed to and I worked at a
perfect pace without getting stressed or not getting it all completed.
• However I feel with additional time I would have been able to sort out the
voiceover in my podcast. Because my voice was loud in some areas and to
quite in other areas. I feel like additional time would have given me the
opportunity to balance the audio out without having my audience
completely jarred by it. So I feel some improvements could have been
made.

6. Target Audience Appeal
• My podcast recommend films that have elements that will mainly appeal
to my target audience mainly the crime, drama genre with some comedic
elements to them. My main audience are mainly male so these films are
mainly going to grab their attention and I have done everything that my
audience requested on survey monkey in that I have done reviews for a
filmmakers work in one 10 minute podcast and review films that have
already come out. There is also the fact that I am male so a male host of a
podcast my appeal to a male audience. I was also able to add in music in
the background and and intro to my podcast which is something that they
requested in survey monkey.

7. Technical Qualities
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0735rrp
In the bottom you will see that there is a link and a screenshot to that link to a podcast
Show that explore a similar genre to mine the main diffrence to this and mine is that
This podcast show mainly have their shows recorded live and non scripted. And other
Then the intro they use very little music and no sound effects. The only thing they do
That is similar to mine is that they play a short clip of the film they talk about. Another
Diffrence to mine and this is in length. A normal episode is roughly an hour and 50 minutes
Whereas mine is 10 minutes. They also talk new releases whereas I talked films that have
Already come out.

8. Aural Qualities
Overall I am very happy on how my work turned out but I feel theirs things that
could have been done better. I like How I was able to use music from the soundtrack
on the films I reviewed and blended in with my voice over. It felt very professional
and I don’t think its something that has been done before in a podcast like this. I feel
I used the music and the clips very appropriately. I also feel that it made my podcast more
Interesting to listen to. I liked how informative my voiceover was I was able to back
my Points up on why I liked these films and why I put them on the list.
As for what I feel could have done better. The audio was off in a few places sometimes
It was quite in some areas and it was too loud in other areas. I feel like if I was given
more time to improve my work I would have tried to balance my voiceover so that my
audience are not jarred when the volume of the audio changes. I also feel that I could
have made my speech a little more clearer.

9. Audience Appeal
I feel I have done what my target audience have requested me to do on survey
monkey. Have I done reviews for a filmmakers work in one 10 minute podcast?
check. I reviewed films that are not new releases? Check. I have added intro music
to my podcast?. Check Etc. Another reason why I feel that I have appealed to my
target audience is that the films that some requested are some crime dramas
mixed with comedic elements and a lot of the films on the list are a perfect blend
of these genres so I believe that there is at least one film that my target audience
may enjoy. So I feel my audiences may be satisfied with what I made. I think that my
podcast helps introduce younger audiences films made by someone who they are not
aware of so they can seek out what film she/he does next.

10. Peer
Feedback

11. Feedback 1
• What did you like about the product?
– I liked the music you used for the intro and how a soundtrack out of one of Tarentino’s
films started playing when you introduced a movie on your Top 5 list that he directed.
• What improvements could have been made to
the product?
– I’ve only listened to the first 3 minutes, but maybe you should think about including the
reason why you placed a movie in your Top 5 list above others.

12. Feedback 2
• What did you like about the product?
– I find the music has impact in the background, the
voice over is very informative where it explains the
plot in a simple form and tells who is in the cast.
• What improvements could have been made to
the product?
– I would have had different films instead of just
tarentino films. Also the audio sound drops around 5
minutes so I would recommend to keep the audio
sound level the same.

13. Feedback 3
• What did you like about the product?
– Like the way you have introduced the top 5 film with the music to start
with and then between each film it suits the this type of podcast very
well. You have spoken clearly so that you can get a clear view of the
film is about.
• What improvements could have been made to
the product?
– Improvements on to speak a bit louder.

14. Peer Feedback Summary
• What do you agree with from your peer
feedback?
I do agree that the audio with my voice was way to quiet
and I needed to speak up or change the volume of the
audio when editing. It does feel uneven
• What do you disagree with from your peer
feedback?
• The reason I am talking taratino films is because I
am introducing films form someone you might
not be aware of and not stuff you are used to
seeing a million times.

15. Peer Feedback Summary
I would definitely try to make my voice the same volume. Because having
The audio change from quite to loud makes it jarring for anyone listening.
The Audio Keeps shifting from loud to quite in parts of the podcast and
I would have liked it to change it to just normal. Another way this could
Make a difference is that I could have spoken a little louder when recording
Audio. Other than that I am happy with what I have made.
