Review
This document summarizes a group project to create advertisements across multiple mediums. The group created a storyboard for a video advertisement focusing on sports, filming the ad and overcoming technical difficulties. Their video ad utilized sex appeal to promote increased confidence from the product. Each group member edited the footage using effects. One member created a print ad using Photoshop featuring an attractive model and celebrity endorsement. They then produced a radio ad using Reaper with comedic scripts, sound effects and voiceover work. Overall the project expanded their knowledge of advertising techniques across different formats and mediums.
Evaluation
The original plan for the radio advertisement included a beeping checkout sound effect, but this could not be found. Instead, the sound of a car door closing and a car driving away was used to represent leaving the store. Working together, the two partners created a script with both of their ideas and recorded it following the script's conventions. Feedback noted that the dialogue was faded and a voice was unclear at times. For future ads, crossfading sound effects would help set the atmosphere better.
Look at me I'm Sandra Dee
Sandra Dee worked on her solo from Grease, "Look at Me I'm Sandra Dee (Reprise)" with her vocal coach. Her goal for the rehearsal was to learn the correct techniques for her solo and be able to perform it accurately by the end. With the coach's help, she focused on breath control, pitch, projection and emphasis within different parts of the song. She recorded her solo to help with individual practice and improving her tuning.
Individual reflection
- The individual reflected on their experience in pre-production for a group film project. They felt the group worked well together and everyone contributed to different roles.
- As the sound technician, they conducted research on using sound to build atmosphere by studying films like A Quiet Place. They tested equipment to determine what would best capture the film's narrative of isolation.
- Moving forward, they will operate sound equipment during filming and mix the final soundtrack. They aim to improve their skills by practicing with more equipment before filming resumes.
Performance workshop11
The class created an ethos for their dance company which included being experimental, willing to learn from others and adapt ideas, and communicating effectively. They then brainstormed ideas for pieces about childhood, suggesting motifs involving clapping games, disabilities, nursery rhymes, and adaptations showing how childhood can change.

Smile Podcast - Evaluation.docx
The podcast was the first attempt at editing and recording one for a mental health campaign. While challenging, it provided valuable experience with audio editing. Areas for improvement include varying pitch and volume to make audio clearer and reduce background noise. Using audio editing software like Logic Pro was difficult at first due to inexperience, but simple tools helped edit and loop audio. Following advice and guides helped achieve a suitable podcast for the target audience.
Radio advert evaluation
The radio advertisement went through several revisions in its creative process as the team struggled with deciding between a narrative or conversational format and incorporating humor. Technological tools like editing software allowed them to experiment with jingles and bedding tracks to develop the final advertisement. Feedback suggested adding more enthusiasm to the voiceover and lowering the background music to improve audience engagement. The advertisement uses conventions like jingles, repetition, and a clear voiceover to represent a surf store and promote its products and services for the summer beach season.
Radio advert evaluation
1. The group had to cut parts of their video to make it shorter so they could focus on the most important parts, as well as trying to create a good atmosphere and coming up with their advertising idea.
2. Recording voices for the characters was fun but they faced problems with echo that made the sound distorted and peaking, requiring multiple re-takes. They worked well together on editing the video and creating sound effects.
3. They used humor and details about a delicious recipe to try and engage their target audience, as well as taking advantage of stereotypes to make people laugh and create an enjoyable radio ad.

Radio advert evaluation
We had to make several creative changes to our original radio advert plan. Originally, part of the recording sounded bland and we rushed it. We lowered the vocal levels which made it quieter but more pleasant. We also had to tone down some slang words to make it appropriate for school. Working with a partner was challenging as it was hard to stay focused. Recording with others present caused embarrassment and ruined takes, taking more time. The advert uses techniques like direct address to hook the target audience and uses a relatable situation about not using a condom, though it relies on negative stereotypes. Feedback showed the advert was poor quality and needed reworking of many elements like acting, effects, and stereotypes used.

Media evaluation radio ad
The radio advertisement required several creative decisions and departures from the original plan due to issues encountered during recording and editing. Background noise had to be removed by re-recording audio clips, and the finished advertisement was too long so parts were removed to meet the 30 second time limit. Working with a partner, the original script helped guide actors and recordings were done efficiently. Techniques like repetition of the shop name and enthusiastic promotion of products were used to attract the target audience. Basic technology like Audacity enabled adding effects but also presented minor issues during editing that were overcome. Conventions like enthusiastic voiceovers and direct audience addressing were employed while maintaining a focus on representing new surfers through children's voices. Feedback received was positive overall.

Unit 27 essay
This document discusses the history and development of various performance genres that contributed to the emergence of modern musical theatre. It analyzes how different genres integrated or did not integrate the art forms of dance, music, and drama. While early genres like opera, operetta, and minstrel shows incorporated some combination of the arts, it was not until later developments like Oklahoma that all three were fully integrated throughout a musical. The document also examines how individual musicals have varied in their formulas and use of the art forms, suggesting there is no single "perfect formula" needed for success.

Grease analysis
Grease is a musical set in 1959 at Rydell High School, following the Pink Ladies and T-Birds gangs. The main character Sandy joins the Pink Ladies and tells them about meeting Danny, the leader of the T-Birds, over summer. When school starts, Danny and Sandy are surprised to find they both attend Rydell. Frenchy is an over-the-top member of the Pink Ladies who is friendly and supportive, especially comforting Sandy when Danny treats her differently than over summer. Grease explores themes of love, friendship, and teenage rebellion through songs and scenes requiring strong acting, singing, dancing, and character portrayal skills from the cast.

Learning the choreography for "Summer Nights"
The rehearsal focused on learning the choreography for "Summer Nights" from the musical Grease. The choreography was broken down into sections and learned slowly before being pieced together. By the end of rehearsal, the entire choreography had been learned along with some initial character and performance elements. The next steps are to continue practicing individually to improve memory and exaggeration of movements in order to fully embody the fun and energetic character.
Singing workshop for Grease
The rehearsal focused on learning the songs "Summer Nights" and "You're The One I Want" from Grease. Cast members were assigned parts for each song and worked on harmonies. The goal was to learn the lyrics for both songs. Strengths included learning lyrics quickly, but improvements were needed on projecting the voice and continuing to practice the tunes and harmonies. Weekly targets will be set to ensure continued progress.
Learning the choreography for “You’re The One I Want”.
The rehearsal focused on learning the choreography for "You're The One I Want" from the 2010 London West End production. Due to the small cast size, this choreography was chosen. Not all cast members could attend, so extra rehearsals were scheduled to ensure everyone learns the choreography correctly. Specific movements are described, and the document outlines the dancer's strengths, areas for improvement, and target for the next rehearsal of further practicing sections they struggled with.

- Areas for improvement include learning lines fluently and working on an American accent by watching more Grease clips at home between rehearsals.
