Sleep informs the audience about the various sleeping patterns of various creatures through an audio essay. What’s enjoyable about this audio essay, is its ability to entertain its young target audience through its conversational style of the narrator. The narrator propels the narration along with the use of responses from interviewees that is further enhanced by atmosphere sounds. Through differentiating the volume, the narrator is emphasised to progress the narrative along, however it can become overbearing and seems as though it interrupts the information that the interviewee provides.

Overall, Sleep provided a balance of being informative and entertaining and has definitely inspired our approach to the audio essay for Project Brief Four. Inspired through using a variety of elements that provides texture, such as narration, spot sounds, sound effects and atmosphere sounds that cleverly provide connotations to the context of sleep.
