Radio Adverts Conventions

FACTS - The radio advert will consist of key facts and statistics about the movie. These are usually reviews and ratings on the film.
-
VOICE OVER - Clear voice so that the listeners can recall the information well; they inform the listeners on key dates of the films release.
-
Moreover, the voice over\'s tone of voice creates a certain mood to complement the advert with the movie. Their language and tone can represent the movie\'s genre.
-
MUSIC - Sets the atmosphere of the film\'s genre; it is used as a background soundtrack for the voice over\'s comentations.
-
LENGTH - Typically a radio advert lasts for 30-40 seconds to not lose the listeners engagement and to not reveal too much on the film\'s narration.
-
DIALOGUE - Dialogue directly made in the film could be added into the radio advert so that the listeners can create a link between the film and advert once they view it.
-
JINGLE/ SLOGAN - A memorable melody or (character\'s) phrase could be used so that the listener\'s can recall the radio advert and advertise the film by vocally replicating the jingle/phase.
