Two Podcast Review

The two podcasts that i listened to were; 'The Heroine Journey' & 'Flixwatchers'
both of these podcasts were similar as; their was a clear introduction to the podcast, in 'Flixwatchers' their was the use of background music and instruments such as; Jazz music, alongside Trumpets and Trumbones. However, in 'The Heroine Journey' the background music had more sound effects then actual background music. Both of these introductions helped to set-the-scene and create an atmosphere of either relaxing, funny and realistic. The people in the podcasts felt comfortable and relaxed whilst talking about the main topic of the podcast, and their was an obvious age & target audience in which the speakers aimed for.

I personally found that the podcast 'The Heroine Journey' was more interesting then 'Flixwatchers' because the host and guest in 'The Heroine Journey' made the main topic of the podcast more interesting and made me see a different aspect to life. This was created by how the two women (Elsie and Tess) discussed how the movie made them feel, and how their opinions may have reflected on other people in the world who may feel a similar way to themselves.

- Confident Speaker. (so that they understand the subject)
- Informative, chilled out. (easy to relate with and bearable)
- Background music throughout. (making the podcast more entertaining)

- Gender Neutral (anyone can get involved)
- Add clips from trailers/teasers/snippets

Podcast Script

*Intro Jingle*

Cue to presenter - Hello! welcome back to JAM productions and i hope you all had a very good day. Today we will be discussing a new and interested game, Black Ops 4.

Cue Track - <Snippet - black ops 4 trailer> first 10 seconds - 19 seconds (fade at 17 seconds, end at 19 seconds.

Cue to presenter - Today i am joined by a special guest! How are you Josh?

Cue back to presenter - I mean wow it has been nearly 3 years since treyarch have released black ops 3, but this game is on its own level. We are going to be uncovering all the different aspects of the game and why its going to lead a new way.  Now i have heard that this is the first time a battle royale game mode has been added. What change do you think this will bring towards the call of duty industry and the fans of the game?

Cue to Guest

Quick Jingle (Old fashioned music - 3 - 5 seconds)

Cue to presenter - So as i have mentioned, treyarch have added a battle royale game mode called blackout and the beta which was recently closed after 2 weeks of its open release. This gave millions of people get the chance to try out multiplayer and also blackout. Judging by the beta, do you see yourself and others enjoying this new game?

Cue VOXPOP (10/20 seconds) - Have you watched any of the black ops 4 trailers?

Cue to Guest

Many players who had experienced the open beta had said it felt more like PUBG then fortnite, and as you know they are both battle royale games. Do you think this will bring a positive or negative impact?

Cue to Guest

Now, Personally i really enjoyed playing black ops 2 and 3 and seeing the different styles of gameplay. For example, specialist abilities and the new guns added to the game. What aspect of the old black ops games did you enjoy the most?

Cue to Guest

Another change in the game in which may find difficult to get used to is switching between multiplayer and battle royale. This is because, many people who had previously played battle royale games such as fortnite, played in 1st person view, and to switch over to multiplayer which is in 3rd person may be hard to do. Do you believe that this will have an impact on the game?

Final Cue to Guest

Thats everything for now, if you have any questions in which i havent answered then follow me on twitter and instagram @JAMProductions. I will talk to you all soon, Good bye!
