A TV studio production team was established which included myself and five other students.
Our brief:
To film a live studio recording of a children's TV slot, demonstrating how to make a paper aeroplane - aimed at an audience of 7-10 year olds.
Production team roles were discussed within our group and we met on several occasions to brainstorm and create an agenda.
We each decided and agreed upon multiple roles. I became researcher and floor manager.
The team agreed to create a facebook group, to help establish a communication link and to act as a forum to share ideas.
As it was improtant not to have any silence during the demonstation, and for the content to not appear too scripted, I suggested to adopt a theme for the show, the idea behind this being it would hopefully assist with any ad-libbing requirements during the recording. If your mind goes blank - talk about halloween!
I pitched a halloween theme to the rest of the group, all of whom liked the idea. This was evident from the volume of 'likes' the facebook thread received. ;)
Between us we decided to source some decorative items in order to dress the set and make it look as professional as possible, whilst working to a tight deadline.
I obtained several sheets of halloween printed fabrics which were used to dress the flats along with coloured card and stickers to decorate the paper planes. Other team members supplied haloween decorations. Spider webs, tablecloths and a pumpkin lantern to use as props and add aesthetic elements to the production.
