For my podcast I made sure that the language used was suitable for my target audience which was teenagers in between the ages of 14-19 and my secondary audience who were those who were interested in the African culture and dance. I did this by using formal language within the introduction of my podcast and informal language during my interview and my conclusion. I stuck to my topic throughout the whole podcast and made it clear that it was mainly about the African dance culture and two dance groups.

I had a clear beginning, middle and end which also helped me with the format of my podcast allowing me to know what had to be done during each period for example, I knew that within period one I had to give myself enough time to do my introduction and sound check, during period two I was able to complete my interview and in period three I finally completed my podcast with a conclusion and words of wisdom to my fellow young viewers. This then allowed me to have enough time in period four to have a layout of what I would do for my podcast and create ideas by finding music which will fit well with my podcast. Once having my plan sorted out I was able to put it all together by editing it through Logic.

My strengths were having a script which helped me with my podcast and having a character play the role of DJ Kwamz original to complete my interview. Another strength was having a creative introduction to DJ Kwamz Original which would be a familiar voice over for those audience members who are familiar with the DJ. Improvements that could've been included to make my podcast better was having a theme tune in the beginning to introduce the Podcast just like a radio station or news channel would have; for example, BBC news have a familiar theme tune at the beginning of ever broadcast which is a familiar sound to their audience and even if they cannot see what's going on their television that theme tune makes them aware that BBC news is being aired at that particular moment.
