Recent radio dramas listened to

I recently listened to a radio play called Three-Body problem, which is a novel in Chinese. There are many seasons of the radio drama and I listened to one of its episodes.

There was a trailer made at the beginning of the play and I could hear the ambient sounds in it, people walking, whispering and the sound of water, it felt like a conversation in an office. What I thought was good about the trailer was that it was mixed very harmoniously and led by the dialogue. The sound effects are very appropriate for the sci-fi theme of the show. But what I felt was lacking was that it was a trailer that cut the first two minutes of the episode. This made me feel like I was listening to a repeat of something that didn’t surprise me.

The vocals on this radio drama are very bright and clear, and I can clearly understand what is being said in the drama. In contrast to our radio drama, the vocals always had a different vibe as each character was not recorded at the same time, probably due to the environment in which they were recorded.

In this radio drama, I thought it was very well done in terms of articulation. In the trailer, I could hear the mood going from relaxed to tense, and the music in it was very nicely matched. I think this is something we should learn from.

Inspiration for the radio project

In this radio project, the theme of our group is campus violence. We want to make a radio drama to reflect the harm of campus violence to the victims and distort the psychology of the perpetrators.

Campus violence still exists in today’s society, and many victims have been greatly hurt. Some perpetrators of campus violence don’t care who you are or what relationship you have with them. They will make campus violence against people who look introverted without reason.

There are many films that also shoot the theme of campus violence. My inspiration comes from the Chinese film “Better Days”, which tells the harm of campus violence. A campus accident on the eve of the college entrance exam changes the fate of two teenagers. Chen Nian is introverted and a top student in school. The accidental fall of a classmate leads to a series of untold stories, and Chen Nian is involved in them… At her loneliest moment, a teenager named Xiao Bei enters her world. The majority of people’s 18 years are bright and happy, but they have tasted the indifference of the adult world in advance in the summer of 18 years. A secret “battle” is being staged, and they will work together to protect the dignity of teenagers.

I want to express a better meaning with a limited number of people, so I intend to express it with a suspense method. Because I’ve seen some suspense movies recently, “Knives Out”, “Murder on the Orient Express”, “the invisible guest“. I found that these films have common characteristics. The first is that there are few places, and the second is that the number of actors is relatively fixed.
