As Live Production - Brain-storming ideas

-
So I started to think of studio ideas that could possibly be an option, I have thought of 3 initial ideas that I personally like and could become one of our productions.
  • Naughty Neighbour
  • IQ 1-10
  • Family Jealousy 
  • 1 Woman 6 Shirts
  • Say yes to the 'Fake' dress
Some of these ideas are better than others but I personally like all of them, they can all be developed and worked on. I'm also not 100% of the names but this is what I'm currently pitching and working on;

- Naughty Neighbour - 

This idea came to me while i was actually speaking to one of my neighbors and i saw how much they hate their next door neighbor. I could also sense a lot of anger that the neighbor had towards the other person, and that is when an idea struck me.

This would consist of 2-4 neighbors on the live production expressing their feelings to each other, we would have each of them explain their stories and the host would pick the 'winner' of who he thinks is right. The neighbor that 'wins' would get to the satisfaction of winning and also something dunking or throwing a pie at the other neighbors face (Still not certain on the 'win').

-IQ 1-10-
There are many shows and productions on TV that have trivia question and test people's IQ's but with this production i thought that it would be fun to get a few contestants and ask them a few fun easy/stupid questions that would be a tongue twister and also riddles for them such as 'A cowboy rides into town on Friday, stays for three days and leaves on Friday. How did he do it?' There are a lot of people out there who do not know the answers to most riddles. There would also be buzzers and prizes.

 -Family Jealousy-

My mum actually helped me with this idea since she loves to watch family entertainment and shows. My family is very much a jealous family, i love them very much but when it comes to being better than one another my family is one of those.

This made me think that there are probably many families out there that are exactly the same, this would be a very funny concept getting 2-3 families on the show and getting them to face their jealousy towards each other, this would really interest a lot of viewers since it would be a little bit dramatic just like 'Naught Neighbours'. I would also like the other families to ask each other questions and to see how one another lives.

-1 Woman, 6 shirts-


 This idea was very random, i started to think of some dating shows and there are some weird shows out there like 'Naked and Afraid' and i started to think of this show. Having 1 woman choose her next partner/husband by choosing his shirt, not seeing him at all but smelling his shirt feeling it and getting a sense of his style. We would see the pre-shot videos of the man and then see the lady choosing the shirt of the man, then they would go on a date and develop their relationship.

 -Say yes to the 'Fake Dress'-

I wanted to do a fashion concept as one of my ideas, i personally love watching 'Say yes to the dress' and i wanted to try and twist this idea in a way. I thought of having dress designers design a wedding dress or some form of formal wear and then get kids/people to create that dress out of toilet paper.

Or the idea could also a different way where we have the bride create her perfect wedding dress out of toilet paper, or different fabrics.

All of my ideas are trying to be entertaining and fun, i want to make sure that even the audiences would enjoy any of these shows.

Me and Callum will be discussing our ideas that we have and try to link them together, we want to make sure that we have equal par-take in the idea development and hopefully merge our ideas together to create one great idea.

Fiction Adaptation - Trespass - John Clare research

-
Image
While coming up with my proposal i really wanted to discover more about John Clare. John was born in 1793 and was a very famous poet, he was born as the son of a farm labourer and did not have much money. Many individuals state that Clare is 'the greatest labouring class poet that England has ever produced' since he came from a very poor background. While reading up on his background it was very hard, he had a troubled childhood and was also sent to an asylum where he had written most of his poems. I chose the Trespass poem due to me really having a strong connection to it. I feel as John Clare felt a lot of loneliness and pain during the time that this poem was written. The sonnet has rhyming couplets and seems less angry even though it is in-fact very sad. Clare really felt despair and pain while this poem was written. Clare was born into a middle class family and felt as he wanted to express these feelings within his other poems. I couldn't really find any informati...

As Live Production - TX and Final Rehersal

Today was the day we were all preparing for! 'Steal the Style' went live! Everything egan shart at 9:00am, since the lighting and set team had to come in early to get started. Most of the work had to be completed way before the transmission hour which was 14:00. First thing me and George got to doing is setting up talkbacks and giving them out, these have an effective communication between everyone within the gallery and floor. Everyone was set and ready to go with final rehersals that started first thing in the morning, during these rehersals we were feeling confident. We were hitting our 30 minute mark and nothing had gone wrong. Everyone was ready our presenters, contributors, models, techs, first years etc. Both me and George had to make sure that all camer ops recieve a talkback and each one of us (Me, George, Jack) as the floor managers. We had a spare talkback which was given to Harvey Amiees sound assistant. We had one talkback that was broken and couldn...

As Live Production - First look into Studio Production (workshop)

Today we had a very exciting workshop with Del, it was our first go at working in a real Studio Production atmosphere. We all had a go at different jobs such as Floor Managin, Sound, Directing, VT, Talent etc. We also had a go at playing around in the gallery and seeing what it takes to be a vocal Director. We all had a go and realised that when we go live all of us tone our voices down and really start to focus very strongly on what to say and what shot to play live. I had so much fun during this workshop but found out that most of the jobs are very difficult! Escpecially my own, being a floor manager comes with many different responsibilities. I realised that i had to really nail my 'Floor Manager' hand signals. I also found it difficult to manage the talent, Del told me that i had to be nexto each camera when live so that the talent can look at you and the correct camera. Me and George both decided to take care of one talent each - i would be in charge of Adeline and Georg...
