Bad News and Another Speech Package

25/02/10
Today isn't going so good, my group weren't impressed by my efforts for my speech package and told me I have to do it again, I was not best pleased, but decided to try again for their sake since they wanted a Distinction. In the end, both myself and Freddie were told to go out and make speech packages, mine being about favourite new bands/music again and Freddie's was about Festivals. Sophie wrote out a list of questions for us to ask, we got out a zoom and went around college once more. We went to reception and found barely anyone there, they weren't exactly willing to answer our questions and most of them found it suspicious that we were asking them to come along with us into an interview room where it was much quieter to ask them. In the end, we went along to the Loaf, found Beckie on the way there and she suggested about asking the BND 1st years to see if they would answer our questions. 3 of them actually came alogn with us! I was very relieved, it's a good thing that we're all friends. We went to the interview room and asked them our questions, they were really helpful, though sounded as though they were half-asleep, haha. After them, we interviewed one of Freddie's friends that I sometimes see hanging round reception. In the end, it took a long time and myself and Freddie, both decided to return to Sophie and edit our work. We returned and James swiftly began searching for our interviews, whilst Sophie was listening to some music for an idea of bed-music. We came up with a title for the show; "The 30 Minute Takeover" or "The Sophie Cullen Show". Sophie and James eventually left to go home, James was going to create the seven jingles Sophie requested, me and Freddie stayed and began recording our voices for the intro and outro of our speech packages along with the questions and choosing the bed music. We made our voices rather different, since we both agreed we have unenthusiastic voices-or so others tell us and we added a bit of our own quirkiness to it. It was a lot of fun. By the time we'd finished, it was time to go. So we both cleaned the room, freddie saved our work in a folder on the computer and onto his USB stick-since he said he'd finish editing it at home, I turned all the lights and computers off before leaving and then we left.
Tomorrow, Sophie said that we're going to be creating an advert together after college, sounds like it's going to be fun :)
