Evaluation:
The speech packages about Clark's shoes and Nelson Mandela are different because in Nelson Mandela's speech package, there are content sounds used and it is a simple speech package. The Clark's shoes speech package is more entertaining to listen to, as they use humour in the interview. The Clark's shoes speech package is to inform and entertain the audience, whereas, Nelson Mandela's speech package is just to educate the audience about the history. However, they both educate the audience.

The speech package about The Nurses' Suicide and The Electronic Books are both to inform the audience about things happening. They both have content sounds, however, the speech package on The Nurses' Suicide uses actuality sounds so that you can hear the surrounding's and atmosphere.

Therefore, the techniques that are used in all of these speech packages are vox pops, actuality sounds and content sounds. Actuality and content sounds are used so that you can hear the actual sounds that are in the background. Throughout the speech packages, the male reporter speaks in a clear, medium pace so that the audience can hear and understand what he is saying, during the interviews that take place.
