Link 1 – Radio 1 Life Hacks (factual) - http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p05vqs1d

The narrative of this radio 1 life hacks program is about a young girl who has became the world champion freestyler footballer and she talks about her journey throughout this happening. In this radio link, they use 'bed' when the presenter is talking the effect this has on the audience is to make it sound more interesting. There is also some more music at around 2 minutes 16 when the woman who's story it is is talking, this gives off a dramatic effect to the listener trying to make them more attention, the music then carries on playing throughout the whole story but gets quieter and louder when someone is talking etc and when there is a break from dialogue. There is a Pre-Rec when Liv Cooke is telling us the story about being the current freestyle football world champion, this is a pre recorded clip, to be played at the live radio show. There is also a 'Sting' when Livs relative starts talking about live football journey, this is at 03:45 as there is no talking except for the sound of the instrumental music to break it apart.
