evaluation

Evaluation A radio drama My idea kind of came straight to me on what I wanted to do, but I did get inspiration from a fan fiction I had been reading at the time where one of the characters had written the other a love letter which I took and twisted it so my main character had died and written this letter to love of their life, which I also wanted to represent lgbt which my two main characters are both females in a relationship and the letter tells us how much she loved her to a bit about their parents not excepting who they are and that they are in love and that they were meant to be.  I also had a personal experience to help me write this letter to produce it to the best I could but I wasn’t aiming it anyone prearticular, I was hurting and had inspiration to write this idea out of a final goodbye, by letter form, and with my idea I didn’t want the characters death to be caused by an illness but by being a police officer gave me the idea to have her work partner to deliv...

 An inspector calls. I looked at 'an inspector calls' because i have read the book but to hear it in the depths of a radio drama gave me a different perspective of the story. the thrill of the book was good and then hearing people act it out it gave the drama the justice it needed to be brought to life. The tiger in the smoke. this radio drama is based in the thick fog in london following a women who was widowed by the war which she receives pictures and letters saying that her husband is alive when its just someone committing crimes, it wasnt useful to my radio drama in the way of me writing a romantic drama but if i was gonna be writing a thriller or a crime drama this would have been useful just like an inspector calls. target audience looking at the radio 4 target audince stats i have learned that their viewers a more women, then male and are above the age of fifty the ages below only makes up 24% of the viewers. as shown below.

Ideas  I did  come up with the idea of doing a monologue of someone asking for help but not being able to speak to anyone which i got the insperation from the dear even hansen musical waving through a window. I went with something different i finally chose a romance, got my idea from one of the chapters from a book that i have been reading online, in the chapter it shows a love letter being written from the narrative to her loved one so she could get it when she passes away, so i wanted to create a version of that but when the writer of the letter had died and the receiver had just got the letter and reads it, but there is some sense of the writer being there. when i started writing the script i got inspiration from listening to alot of love songs including clean bandits new song baby even through i did get inspiration from the actual book as well that i was reading.
