The effect of the combination of my main product and the ancillary texts

<-- Here you will see the final version of my Double page radio times listings. Within this it shows our radio drama as today's choice, here i have applied a explanation of the drama and what it will be featuring that week. Also i have followed the conventions of other radio listings i have seen so it looked like a real media product.

Here you will see the copy of my radio drama Newspaper advertisement. Within this i have placed the Radio 2 logo in the corner due to that being my chosen institution. Also present on my piece is the essential aspects such as time, where, date and name. Finally i decided to add a verdict from

two other media newspapers and a star rating.

Overall by creating the ancillary texts of the double page radio time listings and the newspaper advertisement poster in combination with our final radio drama recording it made the overall product extremely more effective.

Below you will see the Final Version of our radio drama:

The ways in which having the combination of the all three of these products that i have produced make the overall radio drama more effective are, the way i have used a double page listings involving my drama as the 'Today's choice' helped me attract my audience as it therefore stood out on the double page as a some what must see. The way i used a description of my product would have also attracted an audience as unlike any of the other programmes the 'Today's choice' gives more detailed so therefore the audience would have more insight into this particular radio drama therefore maybe more likely to want to watch it. Before completing my double page radio listings i looked at many present listings pages in order to make my own as realistic and effective as possible. Secondly the use of my Newspaper advertisement poster in combination with the other two products would make it again more effective as having the advertisement in the newspaper or several newspapers allows the radio drama to be advertised to those individuals who aren't a viewer of the radio listings. Also creating a poster allowed me to imply a visual image to my radio drama letting the audience/listeners visualise the characters therefore gaining a greater connection with the radio drama itself. Also by creating a poster i included positive comments from other institutes e.g "Easily the best i've heard in a long time" this could therefore influence the audience to want to listen to the radio drama more so. The poster also includes a star rating of four stars which could again attract the audience due to this being a high rating. By having this combination my media product is spread across many media institutes making it more likely to be viewed visually and then listened to.
