Radio Jingles

We had to make three Jingles for SNC Live!: the College's radio station, obviously not to be in proper use but just because it teaches us how to use the software.
We had to make a Station Ident that had to be about 10-15 seconds long, a Show Promo that had to be about 30-60 seconds long and a News stating that had to be about 15-30 seconds long.
For all three I used Adobe Sound Booth and GarageBand, apart from the Station Promo where i went on a Internet site that converted Youtube videos to Mp3 files to download which i did instead of GarageBand.

Station Ident Evaluation.
This one was my favourite one as it was the only one where I felt i did the best I could, I spent like 3 hours doing it which is stupidly long considering it came to about 8 seconds, and i got pretty fed up with the software even though once you got the hang of it it was fine.
Apparently I didn't save it as an MP3 file so it wouldn't play on Windows Media Player, even though i remember doing it, but as that was on a Mac maybe nothing really works appropriately.
From what i remember of it it started with a big old alarm and then Laura, Lucy and I said SNC, one after another, I then played a big old church choir saying "HALLELUJAH!" which was followed with me saying Live! I think it worked rather well because not onloy did it teach me how to use the softwarem but it was relatrively straightforward.

Station Promo Evaluation.
With this one I recorded on Soundbooth saying SNC Live! and various other phrases that Laura, Lucy and I said that I can't quite recall at this moment in time. I spent atleast 3 hours on GarageBand, trying to find the appropriate accompaniment to the tracks of which i couldn't and got amazingly frustrated and at about 2 o'clock on Wednesday I gave up and found a website that you can change Youtube Files into MP3's and then download them to use, which is what i did, I got Cheryl Cole's Fight For This Love and Candi Staton Featuring The Source's You Got The Love and cropped them to the suitable length for my promo and played them under what Laura, Lucy and I were saying. I'm still not very happy with it because i do thing it could be alot better but i guess it'll have to stay like that.

Radio News Jingle Evaluation.
This one really is amazingly pathetic as I had only 20 minutes to do it in and it was amazingly rushed. I recorded me saying "SNC news, Bringing all The news, about SNC" or something rather like that I then went on GarageBand and got something that sounded vaguely News-esque called "Flurry" which I then played during it.
I really think this one could have been a whole lot better but as i spent so long messing around with the Show Promo for three hours of stuff that i did not use, it was rather a waste of time.

I hope to eventually put up these Jingles as really what use is an evaluation without something to evaluate and as that won't be on blogger there's not much actual proof i have done it. I have though, so you'll just have to trust me.
