The Radio Task!

So, for my A2 Advanced Portfolio, I need to create a main video piece, which in my case is a short film, as well as creating two ancillary tasks, for which I have primarily chosen to create a radio advert.
 
I decided to choose a radio advert as I knew that it was unlike anything I have completed in Media Studies so far, and for that reason I wanted to try it out and see how successful I could be.
 
As an example of what radio adverts for films are like, I found a compilation of all radio adverts aired for Star Wars, which you can listen to below. While the structure of the adverts is not how I wish mine to be, I still feel that it is a good example and one that I should share!
 
 
In terms of what I would like the structure of my radio advert to be, I would like it to have excerpts from the audio of my short film, mainly parts where the action sounds interesting and intense, in order to draw in potential viewers. As radio adverts are typically 30 seconds long, I wish the excerpt section of the advert to last around 15-20 seconds, with the final 10 seconds to be used to say the title of the short film, where to find it, who is in it as well as the creator, as this is fairly typical of a radio advert.
