VIDEO PODCAST

UAL LEVEL 3 ESPORTS YR2 – THE FINAL MAJOR PROJECT

SECONDARY RESEARCH: THE
FORMAT
EXAMPLE 1 - LW
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9EowlBzsLkQ&ab_cha
nnel=ChuckleSandwich

• The Humour mixed with general discussion as it allows the

flow of the podcast to feel natural. I feel it helps the audience
engage with it.

• I do feel that they sidetrack a bit too much. It may be

the purpose of the podcast however I think that the points get
ignored too much and they must push back to the track at most
points
• We will use light humour. This is will be done by not
forcing any jokes as if using a script, instead we will tell a
joke if we feel like using one fits in the topic we discuss
SECONDARY
RESEARCH: THE
FORMAT
EXAMPLE 2 - LW
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4azFfxcRNk
&ab_channel=XPtoLevel3

• They stick to one theme and use different topics to

discuss the idea, this allows them to make differing
points in a fluent way by presenting good examples of
said events taking place.

• I do feel that they could talk more about

each topic and elaborate on how they connect in a more
concise way as a means to give one final point.

• If we come to having one topic that can be applied to

multiple thing's I would like to connect them all into
the singular topic step by step.
SECONDARY • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvAbyqiupJo&ab_channel=OfflineTVPodcast

RESEARCH: THE
FORMAT • I like the group dynamic; they can get along and each add to the podcast's topics

• The number of topics, for the podcast time we will have I do not want to grab too
EXAMPLE 3 - many points that could be their own session in of itself

LW
• I will make sure that whatever topic we use is one that my partner can also discuss
with confidence.

this demographic have played them.

same group.
SECONDARY RESEARCH: THE TOPICS
SONS OF THE FOREST HAS ITS ENDING CRITICISED BY FANS - JR

• The new "The Forest" sequel "Sons Of The Forest" had

fans confused about what happened during the ending
scene of the game.
• Many fans were left confused and some even upset and
angry at how the developers decided to finish the famous
sequels story.
• Some fans were also disappointed with the lack of
activities and content the early release of the game
contains.
PRISON ARCHITECT – JR &
LW
• Prison Architect is a game about building and
managing a prison and its inmates.
• The Developers did research about US Prison
systems and how they function, they did this
through articles and reviews with ex-prisoners and
employees.
• The game was also released in 2015 and has been
receiving updates and mod support ever since,
along with DLC.
TABS (TOTALLY ACCURATE
BATTLE SIMULATOR) - JR &
LW
• Tabs is a Simulator style game in which you put two armies of unique units
against one another.

• As the player progresses through the game, they unlock new units to deploy
and use against the AI enemy, and they may gain more deployment points in
higher difficulty levels, to allow them to place more units.

• The Game even has a Custom Unit Creator which allowed the community to
create several Original Characters along with other characters from other
Medias.
A handful of Units aren't given to you at first. Instead, you must find them by searching each map for things that are out of the ordinary. This is especially the case for
the Legacy Faction; The entire faction must be found on the Legacy Map.
THE PAID

PAID PROMOTION – NORD VPN - LW

THE SHOW TITLE
THE • We have selected the Mythcast due to the
previously adopted username of Mythee from Jack.
MYTHCAST - LW The name is a simple play on this name and the
word Podcast.
WHY CHOOSE THIS TITLE? - LW

• We chose this title as we wanted it to relate to one of us in

some way, as opposed to making a new name based on
nothing
FEEDBACK
ON THE TITLE -
LW
• Our main feedback was that it
should also mix my username
(Atluswish) in addition to Mythee.
We didn’t feel that both names
can mix without making it too long.

• As seen to the
side using https://namecombiner.
com/mix-names there are not many
good options.
THE LOGO
THE MYTHCAST
LOGO - JR
WHY THIS
LOGO? - LW &
JR
• I feel it was a nice and
simplistic art style which gives
off a vibrant impression to the
audience.
• It shows the name of the
podcast in a lo-fi kind of style
• I like the use of glow effects and
shadows as it gives a sense of
depth into the logo
FEEDBACK FOR
THE LOGO - LW

I think it's very original."
• "Colours really flashy and

setting feel more relaxed

they will make the podcast setting appear more
relaxed and laid back

look better for the audience
ONGOING REFLECTION / EVALUATION

progress on our Weebly websites,

worked on during those days

from our forms into account
on our websites to show what
changes were made from the

audience felt was needed.
FOCUS GROUPS - JR

page about what is being done
• This will also help to make sure we are both happy with what is being done too
• When starting off our project, we discussed together what games and subjects we were going to
talk about, so I think this concept works well
