Critical Self-Reflection [ True Crime Podcast ]

The podcast I have created with my 3 team members, Erin, Kimi and Hugo, is a true crime podcast called Unsolved. We made 2 episodes of 2 different cases; The Black Dahlia and Jack the Ripper. We convey meaning by using representations and genres. We made use of social media as a platform to reach our audiences. We constructed our podcast and its promotion by doing various researches in advance and setting a target audience which is people ages 15-19 years old. - r e p r e s e n t a t i o n s - White people are represented in our podcast. After analyzing the survey we conducted, it turns out that most of the students from our school prefer classic cases from the western hemisphere. We created a survey using Google Forms and through that, we are able to understand our target audiences' preferences. We chose the case of The Black Dahlia and Jack the Ripper because it fits the criteria we concluded from our survey which is western, old, true crime cases. Those cases are also recomme

Podcast Editing

This blog is written by my teammate, Kimi All of the podcast editings are also done by Kimi https://kimi-regentsmedia.blogspot.com/2022/11/podcast-editing.html I edited both episodes of the podcast using Adobe Premiere Pro, a video editing program, because it has all the features that I need to edit the audio and I have a lot of experience editing with Premiere Pro which made me able to edit the podcasts quickly and comfortably. Recordings Erina and Hugo recorded the audios for the podcast and they sent me the raw recording of the podcast. I started editing by cutting out all the mistakes and stutters and making sure the timing between each sentences and words sound natural, not too fast and not too slow. I also made sure there was not too much background noise on the audio so it will sound more high-quality. BGM and SFX I searched for non-copyrighted songs on Youtube and Google for our podcast intro song and for the BGM. I decided to use Too Crazy By David Fesliyan as our podcast intr

Podcast Social Media & Advertisements

This blog is made by me.  Research  In this digital age, many organizations made use of social medias to promote their products to a bigger audience.  Social media allows organizations to connect and engage with potential audiences. Social medias also can help them build their brand identity. I chose to research about Instagram as it is one of the most famous social media these days. I took a look at a few podcast instagram accounts.  The first one is an Indonesian Comedy-Horror podcast, Podcast Malam Kliwon. They upload a preview of their newest episode in their instagram feeds to inform listeners that a new episode has been uploaded. They also used the instagram story and highlights feature to promote their merchandises and collaborations. Next, I scrolled through DIVE Studio's instagram account. DIVE Studios is a podcast production company creating audios related to the culture and society. They consistently upload instagram posts and stories every time a new podcast is released

Podcast Cover Art Research and Development

This blog is made by me. RESEARCH A podcast cover art is essential for every podcast. Podcast cover necessary to attract listeners' attention as it is the first thing your listeners will see prior to listening to the podcast. It's a visual representation for your podcast and it conveys the big idea of the podcast. After doing my research and analysis, I notice that simplicity is the key to designing a good podcast cover. It must be clear and straightforward in order for the audiences to understand.  Here are a few true crime podcast cover arts I took a look at : Most of them use black or light grey as the base color. Red is often used as it connotes blood and death. Most of it uses dark backgrounds and white or a vivid color text for contrast. Some of them feature elements related to crimes such as syringe and fingerprint to clearly indicate that it's a true crime podcast. Many of them feature the logo of their production house so audiences know which organization produced
