Outside Broadcast script

This is my script for my outside broadcast story for my news on the murder of the young teenager in Bethnal Green.

The residents of Bethnal Green in east London are in shock at last night’s murder of a schoolboy.

15 year-old Joel Adesina was killed in the wee hours of the morning following a night out on the town.

Our crime correspondent Saleha Siddiqah is at the scene.

Reports are that Joel was on his way home with friends at the time of the attack. It is not clear where he was coming from that late. Police are at this moment interrogating the friends to find out more.

They described his murder as cold and brutal. He was knifed in the stomach. The blade penetrated his abdomen. Friends called an ambulance immediately and Joel managed to survive for about three hours, he died in hospital later.

Just before you joined me I spoke with police constable Roger Laing.

Tweenz FM logo

This is our radio newscast logo.

We used the colours blue and black as it seems calm and exciting, which reflects our newscast as we would like our listeners to be calm and relaxed whilst listening to our newscast.
We used the font we have chosen as it seems to look fun and relaxing. We also used this as we are targeting the youth and so that they can recognise our newscast as fun and relaxing.

Group preparation - Generating ideas

Here, as a group we brainstormed ideas for our newscast.

We had discussed about what we would like to include in our newscast.

We have brainstormed different types of stories we would like to include and follow up on, such as hard stories to do with crime and health, so that our audience can be informed on the important news that may have taken place in their local area.

 We also decided to include soft stories such as to do with Celebrities, events and advice on education this is because our target audience are youthful and they will be interested in these types of news.

We have also discussed what kind of forms we will be using to present our news stories such as vox pops, interviews and outside broadcast.
