History of Radio Dramas
This document discusses the history and elements of radio dramas. Radio dramas were popular in the 1930s-1950s as they relied on narration, dialogue, music and sound effects to tell stories without video. By the late 1930s, radio dramas were widely popular in genres like mysteries and soap operas. After television was introduced, radio drama popularity declined in the US with most being cancelled by 1960. Key elements of radio dramas included narration to set the scene, dialogue between characters, music to transition between scenes or set mood, and sound effects to establish the environment. With podcasting, radio dramas have become popular again as they can be created and distributed easily.
Radio drama
Radio drama is a form of entertainment broadcast on the radio using only audio. It relies on dialogue, music, sound effects, and the actors' use of different accents to portray multiple characters without visuals. Conventions like fades and silence are important techniques used to captivate listeners. Music, accents, sounds effects, and script structure are all carefully considered to effectively set the atmosphere and move the story forward through sound alone.

Radio drama is a dramatized performance broadcast on radio using only sound. It relies on codes and conventions like sound effects, genre, storyline, characters, and accents to help listeners imagine the performance. Sound effects and accents provide context and help listeners visualize characters. The most crucial element is the storyline, which must keep listeners interested and consistent. Radio dramas may feature a cast of actors each playing a character, or one actor playing multiple roles using different voices and accents.
Radio Broadcasting
Radio broadcasting involves the transmission of audio signals through radio waves to reach a wide audience. There are two main types of signals: analog audio and digital audio. The main types of radio broadcasting are AM and FM. AM uses amplitude modulation to encode the signal while FM uses frequency modulation. Radio broadcasting can also be commercial, non-commercial educational, public, or non-profit varieties like community radio and campus radio.
Elements of audio in radio
This document analyzes the elements of audio in radio, including human voice, music, sound effects, and silence. It discusses how human voice conveys meaning and stimulates imagination. Music adds color and life while also breaking monotony and setting mood. Sound effects help listeners imagine scenarios. Silence provides emphasis and emotion. Together, these audio elements create sound landscapes in the mind of the listener. The strengths of radio are its ability to speak directly to individuals by talking to them, rather than just reading to them. Music significantly contributes but must be used discreetly and suitably.
Film Genres
The document defines and discusses various film genres and subgenres. It provides examples of primary genres like action, adventure, comedy, crime, drama, epics, horror, musicals, science fiction, war films, and westerns.

Discussion of the role of the director in the filmmaking process. Week 3 Lecture from Intro to Film at Lake Washington Institute of Technology.
Types of documentaries
There are six main types of documentaries: expository, observational, participatory, poetic, reflexive, and performative. Expository documentaries speak directly to the viewer through voiceovers and titles to present a strong argument. Observational documentaries simply observe lived life with minimal intervention. Participatory documentaries emphasize interaction between filmmakers and subjects through interviews. Poetic documentaries organize images through associations and patterns to be fragmentary and impressionistic. Reflexive documentaries help audiences understand the construction process to develop a critical view. Performative documentaries acknowledge the emotional and subjective aspects to address audiences emotionally.
Sound - AS Media
There are two main categories of sound in film - diegetic and non-diegetic. Diegetic sound has a source visible on screen like dialogue or ambient noise, while non-diegetic sound like theme music does not. Sound helps create meaning by enhancing emotion, revealing character psychology, and setting atmosphere through location, period, and continuity between scenes. Key sound terminology includes soundtrack, theme music, sound effects, ambient noise, dialogue, voiceover, and techniques like sound bridges, parallel sound, and contrapuntal sound.
The Elements Of Radio
The main elements of a radio script are the human voice, music, sound effects, and silence. These elements are used together to create sound landscapes or images that allow radio listeners to imagine the scenes, emotions, and meanings being conveyed without visuals. Specifically, the human voice is used to transmit messages and provoke reactions, music generates atmosphere and emotion, sound effects help describe settings, and silence provides emphasis, tension, and emotion. When combined strategically, these elements make radio stories come to life in the listener's mind.

Being a radio RJ is a hectic job but it can also be a fun and very rewarding career. Unlike many other jobs, it is not hectic in terms of worrisome stress. Rather, a RJ has to be a master of multi-tasking and time management.
There are many tasks to perform and processes to keep in mind while hosting a live show on-air. This guide will introduce you to some of the main responsibilities of a radio RJ during a show.
Types of tv and film sound
1. Sound plays a crucial role in films, with 90% of the experience coming from audio rather than visuals. Sound is used to simulate reality, add elements not visible, and set mood.
2. Key audio elements include dialogue, ambient noise, additional recordings, narration, effects, score, and soundtrack music. Effects are created through Foley artistry and studios.
3. The editing and mixing process combines all audio layers to enhance realism and emotional impact for the audience.
Film Production
The key stages of film production are development, pre-production, production, post-production, and distribution. During development, financing is secured through investors attracted by the script, stars attached, and the director. Pre-production involves finalizing the script, scheduling, budgeting, casting, and location scouting. Production encompasses filming all scenes and recording audio. Post-production consists of editing, sound mixing, visual effects, and scoring music. Distribution gets the finished film in front of audiences through various release windows.
Various Equipments at Radio Station
1. A radio station consists of equipment needed to transmit and receive radio signals, including a transmitter, receiver, antenna, transmission lines, and connectors.
2. Key components of a radio station are the transmitter, which modulates a carrier signal to transmit audio from a microphone; a receiver, which extracts information from the modulated carrier wave; and an antenna, which is required to both send and receive radio waves.
3. Other important devices include a transceiver that combines a transmitter and receiver; a modulator that converts baseband signals to radio frequencies; a demodulator that extracts the original signal; and a power amplifier that boosts weak radio signals.
History Of Comedy
The document discusses the history and evolution of comedy in film from 1895 to the 1990s.

During the 1950s, television ownership rapidly expanded and the medium became a dominant form of entertainment and news delivery in American homes. Today, television continues to evolve with new technologies and remains an important source of information, entertainment, and education for many people.
The History of Television
Television has evolved significantly since its early inventions in the 1800s. While many inventors contributed incremental advances, five men are most recognized for developing the technology: Nipkow, Baird, Jenkins, Zworykin, and Farnsworth. Early TVs were monochrome, expensive, and had small screens, but ownership grew rapidly through the 1900s. Cable, remote controls, and color TV emerged in the mid-20th century, changing the experience. Today, TVs are ubiquitous in American homes and come in high-definition formats with large screens.
Music video history presentation
Music videos originated in the 1920s with musical short films shown in movie theaters. Individual artists also began creating short films for their songs in the 1960s. Tony Bennett is believed to have created the first music video in 1965. The launch of MTV in 1981 as the first 24-hour music video channel greatly expanded the popularity of the format. Technology has since allowed higher production quality videos and viewing on new platforms like smartphones and YouTube, expanding the audience from older moviegoers to include younger viewers.

History of music videos
The document discusses the history and evolution of musical short films and music videos from the 1920s to present day. It begins with the earliest musical short films in the 1920s known as "illustrated songs" and "song clips." In the 1930s, the Spooney Melody series introduced live-action segments in cartoons. In the 1960s-1980s, the growth of film technology, television, and pop culture led artists to create promotional videos. MTV, which launched in 1981, helped popularize music videos as an art form and promotional tool. However, black artists faced reluctance from MTV to play their videos until Michael Jackson's "Thriller" in 1982. The rise of directors like Hype Williams in
History of music videos
The first musical short films in the 1930s introduced live-action footage of performers during cartoons. In the 1920s, early musical short films were often illustrated song films used to promote songs. In the 1960s-1980s, cheaper film technology and the rise of television led artists to create promotional music videos. MTV, which debuted in 1981, helped popularize music videos by playing music videos exclusively. Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video, one of the first big budget videos, helped promote his album and increased MTV's audience. Rap music videos initially had small budgets but directors like Hype Williams later directed higher budget videos for rap artists. YouTube and Vevo now provide major platforms for music video streaming and promotion

Page Layout
The document discusses various page layout techniques including the Gutenberg diagram, F-layout, Z-layout, rule of thirds, and the golden ratio. The Gutenberg diagram shows how the eye tracks across a page from top left to bottom right, paying less attention to areas in between. The F-layout and Z-layout are modern variations that chart eye movement on web pages and pages with large central images, respectively. The rule of thirds suggests placing subjects along an imaginary three-by-three grid for a visually pleasing composition. The golden ratio involves a specific mathematical proportion used in layout grids.
Rhetoric & Design

Pathos is an appeal to emotion. The document then provides definitions and examples of additional rhetorical devices such as allusion, amplification, analogy, hyperbole, metaphor, oxymoron, personification, simile, and understatement. These devices can be used to emphasize ideas, draw connections, explain concepts, and grab attention.
Sketches
The document outlines the graphic design process from initial sketches to final layout. It begins with thumbnail sketches created by hand to explore initial concepts without detail. These are followed by rough renderings of top concepts to further develop forms and compositions. Comprehensive digital layouts are then created to present the final design to clients for approval, featuring finished visual elements in their proper layout. The document stresses starting with quick, hand-drawn thumbnails to allow for unlimited creative exploration before committing to any single concept or style.
Visual Elements
The document discusses various visual elements of design including line, shape, space, texture, value, and color. It defines different types of lines such as static, dynamic, and leading lines. It explains the differences between shapes and forms, as well as positive and negative space. The document also covers texture, value, color theory including complementary, analogous, warm, and cool colors.
Design Principles
This document discusses six design principles for combining visual elements: pattern/repetition, contrast, proportion, alignment, balance, and movement. It defines each principle and provides an example image to illustrate it. The principles are pattern/repetition of recurring elements, contrast through differences in values, size, color or shape, proportion relating to relative sizes of elements, alignment along lines, balance with symmetrical or asymmetrical arrangements, and movement through implied or literal representations. Unity occurs when all elements support the overall theme rather than distracting the viewer.
Ethical Considerations for Visual Media Makers.pptx
This document discusses several ethical considerations for visual media makers regarding invasion of privacy, responsibility to subjects, use of graphic or staged photos/videos, and manipulation of images.

Examples are given of controversies over graphic photos published without consent, a staged "milkman" photo from WWII, and darkened skin tone in OJ Simpson's mugshot on a magazine cover.
Deceptive Advertising
The document discusses various examples of deceptive, misleading, and harmful advertising techniques throughout history. It provides cases where companies used mock-ups and simulations to exaggerate product qualities, including using Plexiglas coated in sand to simulate a shaving product and marbles to keep soup ingredients suspended. It also discusses lawsuits around health claims of food products and regulations on tobacco advertising. Finally, it touches on disguised ads and native advertising that masquerade content to seem like news or information rather than paid advertisements.
Media changes
This document discusses how new technologies have increased the power of information over time. It begins with the first newspapers in the 1600s and discusses how the invention of photography in the 1800s allowed newspapers to provide undisputed proof of events. The development of radio in the 1920s allowed people to remotely listen to live events. Television and film in the mid-1900s added a visual dimension to reporting. The moon landing in 1969 was a seminal event watched live on TV worldwide. More recently, smartphones and social media have enabled real-time sharing of news, photos and videos, changing politics and amplifying the spread of misinformation. Social media also expects photographic proof from its users.
15 tips for taking smartphone photos for social media
The document provides 15 tips for taking better smartphone photos for social media. Some key tips include following the rule of thirds when composing photos, using leading lines and finding interesting perspectives by shooting from above or below eye level. Photographers should also simplify backgrounds, use natural lighting when possible, and experiment with different techniques like filling the frame or capturing candid moments. Overall, the tips encourage taking advantage of composition techniques and lighting conditions to create more engaging photos for sharing on social media.
Graphic Design for Social Media
This document provides tips for designing graphics for social media. It recommends keeping designs simple with minimal text and using negative space. Elements should be balanced using contrasting colors, fonts, and graphics. The rule of thirds suggests placing the subject along the horizontal and vertical grid lines or at their intersections. Visual hierarchy uses size and color to show importance. Serif fonts contain extra marks and sans serif fonts are best for social media. Color choices should harmonize and high contrast between text and background aids readability. Complimentary colors make each other brighter while analogous colors create harmony. Warm colors excite and cool colors calm.
