Codes and Conventions of Radio Trailers and Print Adverts

Radio Trailer

• Title and Scheduling - Channel name, day and time(Usually comes at the end) Channel name comes last which is always done on purpose so the audience will remember it.

• Music Bed - Music back track underneath everything
- Extracts from the programme
- Snippets of interviews
- Key element - actuality footage

• Voiceover - Outlines the narrative
- Sometimes poses questionns that will be addressed in the programme
- Is sometimes used to tease the audience (Gives some information, but not it all.)

Print Advert

• Strong image (Only 1)
• Words kept to a minimum
• Scheduling information
• Channel logo not name (Stands out)
• Mostly landscape
