production meeting reflection 2


During this week I have been working closely with the director and editor because we needed to figure out the running order and we had to try to fit in different elements such as the pre recorded and we have been trying to get some school pupils to be able to be the actors in the street and to participate in the show how ever we have completed the running order also we gave ideas to the director.                                                                                                                                                                                   

The groups response to the idea was positive but they had no feedback but mrs lowndes gave some feedback for example she said that we should change some events such as the Skype call because it might not be a to fit in the show because it would put pressure on to the Vt operator.

the things that we need to develop is the running order but we have finished it but we just need to go into more detail because it can help my classmates because then they would have the structure of the running order so that they would be able to refer to it as it will give them a guidance.

For our running order we need to change the skype call because it might not be able to fit in the running order and we need to develop our running order.

What I intend to do next week is to plan and write my script for the show.

This week I've worked well with my hierarchical peers such as the director(Chloe) and the editor (Zahir) . We all helped with the running order,  we worked in harmony by collaborating and making sure that the project will be successful.

Production Meeting Reflection


  
Last Friday we had a production meeting that was in a classroom but it was set like a conference room and then we had 8 people that had to pitch their ideas and we had to listen to the peoples pitch however we had a sheet to fill in and we had to assess them on their performance and we had to give them any improvement.

The groups response to my idea was good because I got some good feedback and they were really positive such as the teacher gave me some suggestions that I should have a female presenter when I go to film in the streets because it would make the show more entertaining to watch and it would appeal to both genders, and my U.S.P would have to be asking the audience in the streets about their favourite music artist.

I voted for Chloe's idea and her title is called Face of music I've decided to vote for her because she had some good suggestions for example the missing the lyric and this will have the audience interactions so it will make the show engaged.

The Idea that I liked about Chloe's is the way the audience is being involved such the twitter feed and that one of the audience has a chance to win the competition.

The brief had some aspects such as we had a program format and we had been approached by E4 and she stuck to the brief because it included interview, competitions and it had involved some music content and in total it would make the show last up to 30 minutes and it was aimed at 14-20 year old

There is no specific area were Chloe should develop because her idea was clear and she made some good suggestions.

The other ideas that I would like to include would have to be asking a member of the public about their favourite artist and what favourite song there into and they can potentially win a prize that they can spend in any music shop.

Treatment for Multi-Camera TV program

Programme format

we have been approached by E4 and we have to produce a content that is relevant to music video and the genre of the content is a magazine music show and it's aimed at 14-20 year old and it has been to be shown by a British audience.However the show need to have 15 minutes of live content and it needs to have 30 minutes of adverts also we would include a variety of interviews,competitions and music video to make the show more interesting.








Title Show

Feel the Music 

For the title I have brainstormed different names but I decided to go for Feel The Music for the show because the Title says it all from being energetic and the colour for the title would have to be bright colours because it can appeal to the audience and they would be engaged and the title is very urban also when you listen to music you can feel the beat of the music and it activates that nerve in the brain to allow you dance.








Contents Ideas

Presenters

For my show I would like to have one male and one female because it would be equal because some of the female audience would be able to relate to the female such as there are different type of interests and the male would be able to relate to the male. The female presenter and the male presenter would need to have a good relationship and they would need to be able to have a joke so then the audience will find it funny.

Music video

For my show I would like to include music videos because the audience would  be able to enjoy the content and it would be the audience that picks the music videos that they like but the three music videos that I have chosen is: Rashaan's music video and Monique's music video and the last one is my own one.

Competition

For my show I would like to have a trying to spot which artist it is but this will be during the show because we would want to entertain the audience and the guests will be taking part in this competition and if they win they will be able to win prizes for the audience also the prizes would consist of winning a £5.00 HMV voucher which you can spend on any time of music album.also the competition would involve the audience and they would have a few seconds to guess but they would have a piece a paper so they can tell which audience it is



Guest

The Guests that I have chosen would have to be kumari because he would play the part well because his confident and his entertaining.
and the other guest that I have chosen would have to be Micheal Jordan because I think that his funny and he will bring some entertainment to the show


Running order

The running is essentially time frames and how we will structure the show

For the running order there will be 15 minutes live content


  • 8:50 Title of the show will be shown 15 seconds.
  • 8:50 the presenter walking introducing the show 
  • 8:53 the presenters are introducing the music content .
  • 8:55 The guests will be introduced  
  • 8:56 the interview will begin, presenters ask question music video (Monique's music video) (3 minutes each)
  • 9:05 The break  
  • 9:07 the break Music video of (my own music video) .
  • 9:10 pre recorded interview from some game show called guess the artist.
  • 9:14 a sample of the artists music video. (rashaan music video)
  • 9:17 introduce competition dance off .
  • 9:21 show the prizes and announce the winners. 
  • Credits.
Pre recorded.part 






This is my Studio Design and this is how I want the show to be layed out.




Studio design 

The Studio design is essentially how the studio will be laid out and how it's going to look like
  • Soft comfy chairs because we would want the audience and the presenters to be relaxed because it's music show.
  • Logo of the show behind the chairs because then the audience would be able to recognize the show. 
  • colored lights will be blue and pink because blue and pink is a nice color also it's very urban. 
  • the background of the studio would be covered with artists to show the success of the artists.
  • the studio will have a fan just in case it get's to hot so it can cool down the audience and the presenters.
  • There would be a desk covered with music pictures because it will be about music.
  • I've chosen these two studio because it would be similar but we will change a lot of the areas such as the podium because I think that it will look better with chairs.








Sketch of background 

The sketch of the background is how I want the the background to set. The background consists of the logo being in the middle and around the logo they will be music notes around it. I've chosen the music notes for a specific because it's the genre of the music, and I went for basic colours because I don't want to distract the audience and in the middle I have the logo because it's eye-catching and it would attract the audience.










Visual Style

For the visual style I would use different camera angles and camera movement because it will allow me to cover the action because the audience would like to see the set of the studio and Ii will have close-ups on the guests and presenters because it will let the audience see there facial expression and by looking at there facial expression the audience would be able to judge what mood their in whether it being happy of angry or maybe sad.
The camera movement should have a flow between the guests and the presenters it should move swiftly and if the camera movement is not good throughout the show it will have an effect on the audience because it will make them be confused also they would not be able to keep on track with entire show because the movement maybe too quick or to slow.
However we would have different cameras to catch the action in case one misses the action.



Presentation Style 


For the presenters I would to like to have two presenters from different ethnicity
I would like them to wear urban clothes because it's a music show and inner city teenager.
I nominate Connor because he has a good dress sense that relates to the show and it reflects the viewers. I believe that Connor is good for presenting because his in that age region of the target audience.
Another reason why Connor is suited for presenting is because he talks in a way that reflects the  target audience for example he uses Slang in and terms that people aged 14-20 use regularly in urban London.
I would nominate myself because i'm confident and I can be a good presenter because i'm also in that 14-20 region but I wear smart clothing but it will be up to the director to decide what to wear, but in this case they would me wear urban clothes, and also it can relate to the audience.
