• News story 1: 

Edmonton’s fire services are still struggling to contain the fire that broke out at a branch of Tesco in Edmonton early this morning. The blaze, which is thought by police to have been started by vandals is reported to have already gutted large parts of the branch. The supermarket remains closed and staff have been dismissed for the rest of the day. Correspondent Ashley Kingston was at the scene earlier. (FX: street, crowd).

Correspondent: Here at Edmonton branch of Tesco, firefighters have there hands full, in trying to stop the fire spreading, to potential flammable areas at the back of the store. We do not know who started the fire, but cctv footage apparently shows three as/yet unidentified youths, attempting to set fire to a sign at the side of the store at around 5am this morning. Unfortunately, all customers and staff were evacuated quickly and their have been no reports of any injuries. I spoke to a checkout assistant Laura Champling earlier, she told me that she was relieved that all staff and customers were evacuated quickly.

• News story 2:

News presenter: That was Ashley Kingston at Edmonton Tesco earlier. We will bring you more updates on the fire as we get them. In other news, Hendon FC, were bottom of the table and three points from safety when former sporting boss Mark Evans took charge on 5 January. Fast forward four weeks and Hendon FC have a win over Watford FC and a draw against the Mighty Lions, as well as a Borough Cup semi-final home win over Royal United under their belt. They overcame the loss of captain Jude Sharp, who was injured in the warm-up, to produce their most complete performance so far under Mark Evans. Hendon FC are 18th in the table, one point from safety, and now have seven points from a possible 12 under Mark Evan’s reign. 

Hendon FC manager Mark Evans had this to tell us “It is a fantastic afternoon for us. Our supporters were fantastic, we need them and they support our team always”. “I am sure in the future we will play better, but at these moments we need to keep our focus because every game is possible to get valuable points. "In the Borough League it is fantastic to get clean sheets, to do that against Watford FC and The Mighty Lions is fantastic.”

Potential Products To Be Advertised

Below is a list of potential things to be advertised on my radio station that will be suitable for my audience:

1) Magazines- I think advertising pop magazines that directly relate to my audience of my radio station will be good because they can receive similar gossip to what's broadcasted on my radio. Such examples are iPOP, We Love Pop and Sugar.

2) Perfumes/Colognes- This would appeal to my audience because perfumes/cologne are something all of my audience would wear as they are in the right age range and also because my audience is for both men and women. For example Gucci Guilty Absolute, Clive Christian, J'adore and La Vie Est Belle.

3) Charities- Both males and Females and my targeted age group will be drawn in by charity adverts. Certain charities appeal to young people such as animal charities.

4) Stationary shops- I think stationary shops would be appropriate because the age range of my station varies from about 15-30 and therefore students and graduates need supplies.

5) Supermarkets- Young adults will need to buy food and supplies. For example Tesco, Sainsbury's and Costco.

6) Opticians- This would appeal to my audience because many people wear glasses of all age ranges and genders, such as Specsavers.

Analysis Of Radio Adverts

Enfield Pop FM is a local radio station, so I want to include adverts in my script as this will make my radio station sound more authentic and local but will also give me another opportunity to think carefully about my audience. I am going to plan some adverts that would be suitable for my target audience but before that, I need to listen to adverts on existing radio stations to get an idea about how adverts are structured and the ways that they use music and sound effects.

Radioville

I have managed to listen to a selection of radio adverts on the radioville website which have helped me think about the structure that is contained with radio adverts such as the use of music, sound effects, different voices for characters in the adverts and representatives of the company or product that is being advertised. 

I have also listened to a range of adverts on a number of radio stations including, Pirate FM, Kiss FM and BBC Essex. I ow need to identify the type of adverts I need to do which will fit for my target audience. 

Audience Research- Radio Station Websites

I decided that it may be a good idea to see if the websites of certain radio stations helped give me an understanding of who their target audience might be. I researched into home pages for Kiss FM, Eagle Radio and Capital FM.

                                                         Kiss FM homepage

Kiss's homepage is girlish and appeals to a majority of teenage girls and young adults. The type of radio being played is aimed at both genders and this is clear because none of the stories are aimed at  girls or boys. It's background is manily purple, many schedules shown, the radio presenters and current music. The music which is shown on the homepage being played is contemporary music by artists such as Zayn and Starley. 

Eagle Radio homepage

Eagle's homepage is more bright and appeals to mainly older adults. The type of radio being played is aimed at both genders and this is clear because none of the stories are stereotypical. It's borders are light pink and background grey, many adverts shown, and current news. 

Capital FM homepage

Capital's homepage is blueish and simple which appeals to an audience of teenagers to people in their mid 30's. It is aimed at both genders. It's filled with pictures and news stories on hot gossip and current music. The music which is shown on the homepage being played is contemporary music by artists such as Selena Gomez or Drake.

Having analysed audience from these websites I feel mine is closest to Capital because I want my station to appeal to both genders and the age range audience of 16-34 is very similar to Capital's audience.

My OFCOM Service Sheet

Below is the OFCOM character of service sheet I have created for my radio station, Enfield Pop FM. As you can see it includes information about audience reach, the type of music played, target audience in terms of age and the station frequency.

My Focus Group & Station Name

I have conducted the focus group into voting which station name I should name my radio, and the most popular name that was chosen from them was Enfield Pop FM.

How I went about doing this was that I gathered  people who would be willing helping me choose a suitable name. I told them to mark each name I gave out of 10. Enfield Beat FM scored 6/10. The members said it gives the audience the location of the radio station. Also, a few members said that the term 'beat' can be seen in any kind of song genre.

PopSmoke FM scored 2/10. I found this quite surprising, but members of the focus group all agreed with each other. However, one member even suggested that this radio station name might be already heard and seen from a game.

Enfield FM scored 3.5/10. It was popular among some members of the focus group but many suggested that it does not tell the audience what to expect from the station because there could be music or no music.

PopBeat FM scored 5/10. A couple of members said that this title is suitable but does not reflect the area the radio station will be at. However, the station with an average of 9/10 was Enfield Pop FM because it appealed to the members of the focus group and shows that Enfield has pop music.

As a result of conducting a focus group to help me with the station name, I have decided to go with the name Enfield Pop FM.

Possible Names For My Radio Station

My radio station will serve inside of an London area called Enfield, and I want the name of my radio station to reflect the fact that it will be broadcasted in this area.

Potential names for my radio station are:

Enfield Beat FM: This radio station name is appropriate to my station because it has got the local area and a hint of the genre of music which will be played. From this, my radio station will target audiences in the local area.

PopSmoke FM: This title for my radio station may be suitable for my target audience. The term 'Pop' can relate to my radio station of the type of music the audience will hear. However, a disadvantage of using this title is that the audience could relate to smoking.

Enfield FM: The term 'Enfield', relates to the location area where the audience will hear the radio. The main problem with this is that the title may seem too simple and vague. It may be boring for the audience.

Enfield Pop FM: This title is catchy and it resembles the type of location and what music my radio station will have. The audience might find this quite simple, but it summarises the station.

PopBeat FM: This is quite a catchy name. The main problem with this is that it has the term 'beat', whereas the music played on my station would be all pop music. This name may confuse the audience with the type of music being played.

I will be conducting a focus group with 10 people across the age range of my target audience to determine which name they think is most suitable for my radio station.

My Radio Station

After successfully completing my primary and secondary research into existing radio stations, I have finally concluded what type of radio station I want to make and who the target audience will be.

Now, I am going to make my radio station which will target a specific audience around London. The station will include news stories, that are local, advertisements and jingles.

In order to help with this, I listened to London radio stations which I want mine to be similar to. I decided to listen to Capital FM, which is a well big radio station in London and comparing it to a low mainstream radio station for example Pirate FM in Cornwall. I listened to this station as it contains local news stories and this will give me a sense of idea for what my news stories will be like.

My target audience in terms of age is quite broad, running from 16 - 34 years of age and I would expect both men and women to listen to my station - this age range will be reflected in the type of music that would be played on my station and the types of adverts I will include and the types of news stories that will appear in my radio bulletin. I would describe the type of music I will be putting in my radio as pop music.
