Throughout the process of working on the drama, blog posts were made detailing extensive research into many aspects of radio production. A great deal of problems were encountered during the execution of the tasks which has led to the slow production times of the finalised product.
Sound effects and background ambiance was recorded by some of the team for use in the final production. These sounds would help to give a more in depth effect to the overall contents of the play. These were edit before inclusion into the final session to help maximise the workflow.
Research into mastering standards for the BBC was conducted in order to ensure the finalised drama met the requirements for broadcasting. The research also provided a better overall understanding on the process of mastering engineering and the tools in which are used in this art form.
The script for the play was adapted by the team to make it suitable for a slot in the BBC broadcast scheduled with a timescale to reach of 15 minutes in total. Therefore contents of the original works by Mary McIntosh had to be edited and expanded upon to reach this goal and to make it more suitable for a wider audience.
The recording and mixing of the drama was undertaken during the final weeks before submission which placed a great deal of pressure on the remaining members. This was undertaken over several days to complete before mixing could begin. The recorded audio was split into sections with each take, this was to ensure that each piece of recorded dialogue was of the highest standard possible for further editing in the mixing process.
Despite the mixing process being slow, due to complications with members of the group, the remainder of the team took on the extra duties in order to complete the process despite the remaining time available.
