2. • I am going to listen to part of a radio show and
analyse the different types of codes and
conventions that take place in the broadcast. I
will talk about what is present in the
broadcast, and understand what effects this
gives on the audience listening.

4. • I am going to look at the extract from BBC Radio
1, and the extract is called ‘Huw: Pretty Vicious in
session, Loris & Winterfalle 16 Feb 15. It is 13
minutes and 20 seconds long.
• The description reads: Welsh indie rock band
Pretty Vicious, newly signed to Virgin EMI
Records, make their Maida Vale session debut for
Huw Stephens this week. Plus there's free new
music by Northern Ireland's Loris and Jersey's
Winterfalle, tipped by the BBC Introducing local
shows.
5. • Huw Stephens, the presenter is interviewing a
new Welsh indie rock band called ‘Pretty
Vicious’. In between the parts of the
interviews, there are clips of sound and music,
that has been previously recorded for an
archive clip.
6. • The presenter uses a clear, well spoken voice
when introducing the band, and whilst
interviewing them and asking questions. He uses
formal language, with not a lot of slang words so
that the people know what he is talking about.
He is polite and respects the people he is talking
to, and asks them questions about the band’s
history. He interacts with them in a positive
manner, engaging with them and also makes the
audience interested.

8. • There is a sound bed in the background of the
interview. There is really faint music to make
the interview more appealing to listen to, and
also makes it sound better. This is combined
with different sound clips of the band’s
influences such as small samples of songs
from The Smiths and the Sex Pistols. They
have inserted a clip of music from the Pretty
Vicious, that has been previously recorded,
which is called an archive clip.
