I will be creating a 5 minute radio show for Sheffield live radio. They are a community radio station that caters to uderserved audiences with shows like Africabeat and The local talent show. All of the shows that are broadcast on Sheffield Live are considered to be Niche.
B.) Target Audience
The target audience for our show would be 14-25 year olds because these are the ages that are generally more interested in games. It will not be specifically targeted at a certain gender so as not to discriminate and limit our audience down to one specific gender. In terms of NRS (National Readership Survey) The target audience would be in the ABC1 category because they would need access to the internet in order to be able to access the podcast in the first place.
C.)Content Plan
The content of the show will include two game reviews per episode with an ad break between certain segments it will also include a section where we ask for the opinions of listeners regarding the game that was discussed previously. There will also be a news section about upcoming games and gaming news.

Bailey: What’s up everyone, its
Bailey were going to be talking about accessories to help play CoD and upcoming
games
Dom: Go check out Most

most wanted)
can get this on android,
PS3, xbox 360, Pc and wii
Bailey: Check out the new
set of rims on these fresh cars like the Bugatti Veyron, pagani zonda and
koenigsegg
Finley: Man! Check out all
the upgrades you can get from winning races and even losing!
Dom: you wanna know whats
bad guys? Cant change cars when you’re in a chase so you could be stuck in a 1
litre and cant get into a fast whip so you can hardly get away
Bailey: Cant wait for the
new need for speed!
Dom: Completed it
Finley: It only came out
yesterday?
Dom: Err! Moving on!
Bailey: Anyone been on GTA
on the new consoles with first person?
Finley: Yeah but it’s only out for new consoles and
they cost a bomb
Dom: Who plays Xbox 360
anymore though?
Finley: You’re joking right?
Loads of people! People who don’t want to pay a fortune!
Dom: Moving onto accessories
for CoD where we’ve been testing out the new modded controller from rapidmodz
Finley: The controller we’ve
received allows you to do a multiple of things whilst in the game, like
dropshot, quick reload,
Bailey: quickscope and rapid-fire
with the controller lighting up with bullet buttons
Dom: Now, talking about the
new Farcry4! We’ve got jack one of our listeners who have called in to talk
about his experience of the game soon!
Bailey: The new valley of
the Yetis DLC is out now for Playstation and Xbox!
Finley: What’s the story
behind it? Is it worth the money?
Dom: It offers a
supernatural twist with a threat of massive Yetis with the enemy after a secret
in the valley.
Bailey: And it’s only £12
with it offering more storyline and more things to do so it’s worth the money
in my opinion.
Finley: Anyone heard of the
keys to kyrat for playstation?
Dom: What’s that?
Finley: it’s where you can
give a friend who doesn’t own the game a chance to play co-op for 2 hours.
Dom: There have been loads
of patches to the game though for all consoles and pc.
Finley: We have our first
caller on the line! Jack! Are you there?
Jack: I’m here! Am I really
on?!
Bailey: Jack! What’s your
opinion on farcry 4?
Jack: It has a good
storyline and better gameplay to the one before, but there’s loads of problems
like the stupid hand glider and grappling hook which is bad to use and hard to
control. You cant even drive the cars cause the handling is that bad and the shooting
accuracy is terrible
Bailey: Driving is easy on
the game?
Jack: It’s not! I crash
every time!
Bailey: I don’t, use the
manual
Finley: Okay hahah! Time to
leave it there thanks for calling in jack!
Dom: That’s all we have time
for; I hope you’ve enjoyed listening today
Finley: Make sure you tune
in next week where we will be talking about more games and doing our new

F.)Production Schedule
G.)Relevant Legal and/or ethical issues
Because our programme is broadcast before the watershed we must be careful not to include any offensive content that may be damaging to younger viewers. Our Radio Station also must have a PRS license in order to include music by artists in the show. Also we must abide by broadcast codes set by Ofcom, this includes things such as 'Material that might seriously impair the physical, mental or physiological development of people under the age of 18 must not be broadcast. There is also a code that talks about the use of offensive language that says ' The most offensive language must not be broadcast before the watershed (in the case of television) or when children are particularly likely to be listening (in the case of radio.'
H.)Proposed Scheduling Time
Our podcast will be available on Fridays at 7:00 PM because alot of teenagers will have finished school and adults will have finished at work by then.
Any questions that we have asked the local community will be asked during the week on social media etc.
