Our audience
Siren FM Output is generally aimed at a predominantly 15-24 audience in both music and speech. Specialist speech and music programmesaiming at a slightly broader audience of 15-30+. The primary audience for our show, is 15-24, which fits the theme and style of presenting that our programme will feature. Our secondary audience will be younger children and teens, up to 30+. The items in our show dont neglect either of our audiences, making the programme available to broadcast at any time of the day.

Content of show
28 minute programme, based on the topic of films. Will contain 2 pre-recorded interviews, which will focus on the topic of 3D, highlighting both pros and cons in regards to the subject. Our live recording will feature an interview with the Director of the University's Film Society. Feature on films that our presenters recommend, that either havent been released in cinemas or werent shown for very long. Feature that is based on the best new releases that will make essential Christmas presents for fellow film lovers.

Creative Methods
For our programme, we will create our own jingle. The jingles will be created with both diegetic and non-diegetic sounds. Our Live Reporter will use various creative methods, in the way he uses his research to ask various questions to our interviewee. The Multi-Platform Producer will research various typography and imagery that will be used on the programmes website. The questions will be written for our reporters, but they may need to improvise. This may also apply to the presenters, even though the show will be scripted.

Legal Issues
We will need to complete music copyright forms, with each second being logged. Consent forms will also need to be completed by our interviewees, otherwise none of the recorded audio will be allowed to be broadcast on air. These will be completed by our Reporters. Risk assessments will also need to be completed before we can go ahead with the project.

Alternative Plans

These are our alternative plans, in case we dont use our time effectively and need extra material in order to reach the full 28 minute programme slot.
Countdown of the best Christmas films Forecast of the Oscars, discussion about what films are expected to be nominated. Competition Feature about films being released in 2012

Publicity Material
We will create a jingle that our listeners will be able to recognise, and automatically associate with the show. In a similar style to the jingles used for popular programmes such as the Chris Moyle's Show and other BBC Radio shows. Our show would regularly feature interviews with individuals from the film industry, linking to other items featured on each show. (For example, Films you might have missed focuses on not so well known films, therefore featuring an interview with the Universitys organiser of the Film Society, allows the show to flow and items to relate to one another. Additionally, our website would also advertise the radio show, giving information about the schedule and shows that will be coming up. The website will be a way to keep the listeners always in the know.
