I have compiled my news story and will use the audio from each interview to frame my story. Firstly, I listened to the interviews and took notes of what the talent is saying in each interview. These notes help to paraphrase the talent in my story and also add context whilst developing an angle for my piece.
After taking notes I did some background research into the Queensland Government's current policies regarding health care and expenditure. These notes helped add detail and information to my piece, as a politician was unavailable to comment on the matter.
I initially decided to organise my best grabs from my talent first and position them in the story line. These grabs should be the focus of my story with my voice simply adding detail to the piece. I used Final Cut Pro to edit and trim the grabs. I also adjusted the sound levels to ensure the grabs sat between -6 and -12 decibels.
Next, I editing my script. I wrote the piece for online news using the pyramid scheme, but for my radio story I had to ensure that the story flowed and the information continued throughout the piece, keeping the listener’s attention. I did this my starting with Queensland health stats and a doctors perspective on the issue and adding in the nurse, then concluding with the important review from the patient and adding in more Queensland health data to conclude the story.
Overall, my editing process focused on cutting the audio to fit within the specified time frame and ensuring my voice tone and sound levels matched the flow of the story.
