Exporter dealer or factory manager of Tartan, Will be questions about the exports of the Scottish Tartan, what are the countries most import, the income, and other things. 3. Fashion designer from outside Scotland, Certainly this interview will be useful because it gives us chance to listen to the other viewpoint about the Tartan, Would be interesting to the audience to hear the opinion of others about a local product. * ( I've contacted to many of second and third class and I still wait for them confirmation, Also I need to find the right historian to start contact to him )

presenter will lead the package Vox pops with tourists in the city center Interview 1 Interview 2 Interview 3 The end of the package

Attract the audiences ¡ As I said, the presenter leading will be the most important point. ¡ Also the diversity of the interviews will be a positive thing. ¡ I don't rely so much on the use of music now, but I think that the decision will be at the stage of finishing touches, Anyway, this music would be almost a Scottish traditional music, ( I need to talk with the group before making this decision to make sure the if it suitable music to the magazine or not ). ¡ Recording the vox pops in the city center will be effective, As well as the selection of non-local accents will put the listener in the form of the topic, Also, I will try to take the interviews face-to-face because this would be more effective. ¡ Although the language would be a little bit formal but I'm not thinking to use a difficult or deep words.
