Podcast Production 2- Pre-production

Title
Definitely not a rip-off.   
Summary (What is your podcast about? How long will it be? Where will it be listened to?) 
  Me and 2 other friends get given a list of people to let into our apocalypse bunker however each person will have a disadvantage. It will be about 10 minutes, but time may fluctuate. We will have 8 minuets to let people in. The podcast will be designed to be listened to on Spotify. 
Subject Specifics (Research and idea development: what topic is explored through your podcast? Does this sit within a wider genre?)   
  Comedy, there isn’t really a topic explored. My podcast is more of a game show so there isn’t much of a topic explored. There isn’t a wider genre explored  
Audience (Who would listen to your podcast, when would they listen, and what characteristics do you know about your audience through research? Age? Gender? Nationality? Are there any special considerations you need to make for your audience?)  
  16-25 year olds. Gender is irrelevant, Nationality is irrelevant. Special considerations, people that enjoy comedy and are okay with light profanity.   
Podcast format (one-to-one, solo-commentary, panel, fiction, non-fiction etc). 
  Panel, comedy    
Influences (Which podcasts have you looked at? Find podcasts that cover similar topics and discuss how they are presented. If possible, provide links to content.)  
   My influence on the format is actually not a podcast but a YouTube video from youtuber Thomas “Tomska” Ridgewell which is linked here -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fO9EfJygDoE  The recording process is inspired by IEE and Distractible. 

Script: Salutations, I’m your hostess with the mosetest with my two co-stars or hosts, or whatever you’d call them. Today we’re going to be deciding who to save from the unforgiving void that is the apocalypse that certainly isn’t impending. so without further ado let’s get them gates open and choose our candidates.

[we will then go through as many candidates as possible candidates until we reach the 9 minute mark of the recording]

Well there it is, we’ve let in [list candidates] and condemned the rest to death, something I hope we’ve not done is bore you to death, if that’s the case please feel free to let me know. Thank you all so much for listening, I know it’s been a long one. Until next time I’m dragged up onto this screen It’s farewell from me and my co-stars.

Above is an image of the wheel of names that me and the people, Bren and Jazz, working on this project made. The three of us joined a call, that I unfortunately didn’t record. The way we decided on who to add to the wheel was just thinking of what would be the most funny in a situation. I chose 30 people because I wanted enough people to give us variety as well as if we went through the names fast we’d have enough to fill the time.

above is the second wheel that was made for the podcast, partially made by me and the co-stars and partially by just me. Much like the first one it’s goal was purely to be comedic, thinking what would be the most comedic, especially in relation to the people we have.

The recording of the podcast, unedited

Above is the proto-type logo. I was Originally going to use it but I added some text to it of the logo. The origins of the image is the logo for the chat that Me and the intended co-stars have. I changed it from a pipe to a microphone and added headphones to fit the podcast. The thing on its wrist is a Pip-Boy from the game Fallout 76, a game set in a post apocalyptic America, I chose it for the apocalypse theme given the theme of the podcast.

The only altercation to the logo I made was adding the title to the white void above the cat. The inspiration for the name is based on the fact that the entire podcast is based on a video I saw and wanted to replicate. The title is a joke about the fact that the podcast is a rip off of the original video, but just a podcast.
