30 minute radio evaluations

Leon

he had a good clear voice i always liked how he went to the extra effort in his vox pop to play the favorite track that peolpe talked about in their vox pop.

Connor

spoke a little bit fast an sounded unconfident also i thought that his voice wasnt clear but the idea of the show was good.

Jesse

I thought the review was read very clearly with good expression and the show was planed and performed well.

Matt

great information on topics, good levels , well presented but most of the script was spoken to fast.

the structure and tone of the show was a bit boaring and he didnt back announce enough.

Reid

Good levels, clear voice, a little bit to much umming and ahhhring when reading the story but overall a good show.

Dane

RADIO REVIEW

I did my report on 90.7 fm on Thursday nights from 1am to 2am I thought they played really good hip hop but their radio show was the most unorganized show I have ever heard. They announced artists they were going to play then put on a totally different artist this shows that they are not organized. When people would call in to rap a verse on air they kept stuffing up the beat and constantly saying to the caller sorry man this thing keeps playing up. This is bad because they are drawing attention to the problem which is very annoying for the audience. Through out the show every second word was f…. which I found made the show sound very unprofessional.

90.7 hip hop show has two hosts which up date you with what’s happening in the Melbourne and USA rap scene T he show starts with the two hosts introducing their show while a hip hop instrumental plays in the background. After that they back announce their phone line and the interviews that will be happening on the show. They also have call ins from local rappers and read out the latest’s information on new up coming artists.

Compared to other Hip Hop shows 90.7 fm from 1 am till 2 am sounds very unorganized and professional. Through out the whole hour I only heard them back announce their show once which is not good for promotion. Something else I found that was missing from the show and a lot of hip hop shows have it is telling the audience what gigs they will be going to and how you can get or win free tickets.

I didn’t think anything on this show was creative or professional they need to be a lot more organized and have the right tracks for what they back announce. The only thing that would keep people tuned in to this station is the music they play

RADIO REVIEW TRIPPLE M

The Around The Nation Show

I found tripple M in the morning played some good classic hits which i can apreciate but i thought they should have mixed in some more modern day songs to overall its not the type of station i would tune into all the time because i prefer to listen to Hip Hop

The Tripple m around the nation show in the morning has alot of discussion about famous strars worldwide and what their doing.They also have diffrent artists in to the studio to host a section of the breafast show sometimes. Today they had in silverchair which was good because they really made them feel comfortable and answer the phone when people ring in.The show also has a10am weather and traffic report telling you which is the best way if your heading in to te city for work.The shows add breaks are usally every seven minutes during interviews and genral discussion

Compared to diffrent breakfast shows i noticed tripple m have a lot more people in the studio when there having discussios and will only play one song after interviews or call ins. Other breakfast shows might play one song reintroduce there show and whos on air and whats coming up next.I also found other breakfast shows will talk more about serious issues where as The around the nation show is very shallow.

This radio show is targetting people from the age of 18 to35 who like to have a good laugh on morning tea .

Review on syn fm wednesday nights hip hop show from 8pm till 10pm

i find this station really good to listen to because i love hip hop and thats all they play from 8pm till 10pm is American hip hop.If i was to change something about the station i would make sure that they played more old school artists like biggie and Tupac Shakur. I love how the hosts Miss T and Big Ja tell you when the new american albums are dropping in Australia i also admire how well they get along with each other especially when their interviewing a artist. Its like they’ve been best friends for years they have a similar vibe to Hamish and Andy this is definently one of my favorite radio stations if i had to give it a ratting it would be five stars.

The hip hop show on Syn fm starts at eight and they usally start with telling the audience about what new rap artists are working on.When they will be touring to Australia and how much their concert tickets are once they finish telling the details they will play about two songs in a row. Then have people calling in requesting what they would like to hear the show is packed with giveaways and competions. Like getting a chance to win backstage with your favorite artist if you know what their first single was. The show also provides the audience with live interveiws from hip hopers all over the world.

The diffrences i found about the Syn fm hip hop show to the one on tripple j was that Syn fm have more international artist getting air time where as tripple j has more Australian artists.I Also found when tripple j are enterviewing a artist they dont ask enough questions about how they acually got into the industry. Like what struggles they went through is it hard yo get your music played on radio those type of questions are what a upcoming artist realy apreciates Knowing. Overall Syn fm played more hip hop music that would be played in a club were as triplle j played the type of songs that you listen to when your having a bbq or rolling down the baech.

The Syn fm hip hop show is defenintly targeting people who prefer listining to American rap and love going clubing it also provides a good source of whats happening with hip hop in the American industry. It exposes you to the thoughts of artists from all diffrent countries.

Radio Comparison

I did my comparison on the Matt and Jo show and the Hughsey and Kate show which both start from 7am and go till 9am.

I thought both of the shows were very funny in the morning and had similar topics to talk about. I found in the morning they had traffic reports around 8am and updated them at 9am.Both of the stations have a lot of comedy about famous sports people and Australian celebrities. I also found that the Matt and Jo show had the same song played twice in the space of and hour. I think that Hamish and Andy get along more friendly than matt and Jo because Matt and Jo have their strong disagreements. Hughsey and Kate will have a disagreement but be able to see each others point of view. Matt and Jo play more music between their interviews. Were Hughsey and Kate have more ads between speaking to call ins. If I wanted to know about the traffic jams and which route to take home from the city. I would definitely listen to Matt and Jo Because they have a better description of ways around the area. I think that both shows would have a very similar audience they would defiantly be competing against each other.

RADIO REVIEW I did my review on The Hamish an Andy show on Tuesday 20/2/07 from 4pm till 6pm I thought they made their show really enjoyable. I like how they get along like best friends I also enjoyed hearing some of the questions they asked when they were interviewing people. For example who enjoys rubbing sunscreen on other peoples back every body can relate to that It’s a good topic. I didn’t like how they always cut the song they were playing before it actually finished. Or how they kept interrupting each other when they were interviewing someone. I think that is something they definitely have to work on because it doesn’t give the audience a good chance to hear what the questions actually are. Overall I think the show is quite enjoyable with good humor. The Hamish and Andy Show is targeted at people coming home from work stuck in the peak hour traffic. It has great interviews with people that call in. It also keeps you updated with the weather and what will be broadcasted on channel 9 news. The music mostly played is rock and top 40 chart hits during the show I found Hamish and Andy talking about a lot of different topics. This includes sex; sport; reality TV and the latest gossip on the new movies and
Hollywood stars. The difference between 101.1 and Hamish and Andy is that 101.1 target their audience at 20 to 50 year olds. Were as Hamish and Andy target their audiences at 15 to 35 year olds. I found that 101.1 was virtually the same when it came to the add breaks. It had ads for six minutes and interviews with jokes in between for about four minutes. I also noticed that 101.1 plays a lot of the eighties hits were as Hamish and Andy do not play any at all. I found that 101.1 was more serious than Hamish and Andy about world issues. The Hamish and Andy show is very shallow and light hearted and targets 15 to 35 year olds and has a great format and good humor. You get all types of people calling in especially people with funny stories to tell. Their aim is to make you have a laugh after a stressful day at the office forget about the traffic and let your hair down. JACOB PAYTON

I did my first review on John Faine from 774 radio station who was interviewing a lady called Asha Bosley about
Hollywood. I thought John asked Asha good questions about the subject like when did Bollywood actually begin how, long have you been in the business for, do you think that Bollywood will be more exciting now that they are putting violence in to the scripts. The weaknesses I found in the interview were when he signed of he didn’t tell the audience who was interviewing. Which is important if a listener has come half way through the interview and would like to know more about the person they wouldn’t know how to go about it. I also found one of the questions he asked her he had to rephrase it because she didn’t understand I think he should of spoke clearer. The question techniques were well thought of he asked a lot of questions about the industry it’s self. How she got in to it and what goes on when you’re involved in Bollywood he also asked questions about her self including her background.

The second review I did was Karen and glen from ABC local radio station and they were interviewing Sally McKelin about breaking the record for the hundred metre hurdles. The interview was done well they had good questions and didn’t interrupt each other or the interview when answering the question. I think the questions were well planed because the answers sally replied with were more then one line. It sounded like she was really comfortable answering them. I only found one weakness in this interview which was when Karen she was asking a question she must of miss read a line because it didn’t make sense so she had to rephrase it. The questions they asked were good were questions that made Sally feel like having a good conversation such as. What will you do between now and training for your next event, how long has it taken for you to finally break that time, has this always been your childhood dream, questions she can really elaborate on.
