Radio Script

As one of the main sections of our project is to create a radio trailer, we felt it was important to plan for this and create a script for how the trailer will sound. Radio trailers for films generally contain music in the background and a narrative voice providing information about the film, as well as sound clips from the film. Below is the script for how our radio trailer should sound.

(1) indicates pause between speech and length of pause.

*Music intro starts to fade in*
Voiceover: 'From the makers of 'What Goes Around...' (1) 'Five star tear jerker says Love Film'.
(2) *Music intro fades into accoustic guitar music from the film.*
(Sound clips from film) Luke Chapman: 'It's very rare that people get to do what they want to do, go where they want to go and see what they want to see'
(1) Luke Chapman: 'I bumped into this girl so I thought I'd give her a lift because she knows the roads a bit better'
(1) Luke Chapman: 'Oh i'm winning you'
Melissa Sykes: 'Aw no!'
(2) Luke Chapman: 'Come here give us a kiss'
Nicole Flowers: '(laughs) Turn it off'
(2)
Voiceover: 'Coming April this year' (2) 'Last Kiss Goodbye'
*Music slowly fades out*

Overall this radio trailer contains a good mix between sound clips from the films and the voiceover. From it you get an idea of what the film may be about, from the film clips, then the voiceover gives the key information regarding the film. I also think it is important to have the music going throughout the whole trailer in the background as it keeps the trailer from being boring and means there is always something to listen to which is crucial for a radio trailer.
