Evaluation:
Within all four speech packages they had a lot of difference but also some simlarities. The similar thing within the speech packages was that some of them had some actuality sound in the background things like you could cars passing by, slight noise in the background or when they were outside you could tell because of the wind.
Some of them also had music beds such as background instrumental or track playing which would relate to the topic or which was appropriate for the topic. The differences were that they all had different purposes such as some were for informing purposes, some were to educate people on history and other were to entertain so they all had there different purposes.
They also had different type of programme genres such as News, School or History. Some of the speech packages were also presented in a different pace some were more slow and some were faster dependending I think on the type of topic such as if it something to do with Entertainment purpose it will be more faster and different things happening at onced, but if it was something an informative purpose it will be more slow because it wants to inform people and get people listening to what they have to say.
The audiences of the speech packages are also different. Some of the audience were aimed at Children & Parents, some were aimed at people who enjoy learning about history and some were for middle age people so each speech package had a different audience.
