The camera will pan to different presenters who will have a script and will know what to say in front of the viewers.
My groups main idea is to present a game show. Here we will have a main quiz where we question people on the entertainment industry. This includes questions about films, series and video games. We might do multiple choice, and our main editor will put in questions on the screen for the viewers to answer the questions at home. The questions will be about film and tv shows. It will be about things that have come out in the past year.
An example I have been inspired by is the UK game ‘The chase’. It has a main host, the players, and the person the players have to beat. I have chosen to get inspiration from the chase, because I like the layout, how they present the chase and it is something I want to incorporate into my show.
For research I have looked at shows like hot ones. This is a show where people eat and interview people. This is inspiration for our show and we will take aspects of this and incorporate it into segments of the episode. I have looked on youtube since that is where they release their interviews. Our show will be more tv based and not on social media sites. I have seen how they present their show for example, they have a host who invites a celebrity guest and they talk about the celebrities life and what they have done in their career. Their set up is nice and simple, it also similar to our set up. They have a main camera to show both people and another two that focusses on one of them separately.
I have also looked at good morning Britain. Their show is on itv, and itv hub. However you can also see clips of it on youtube. What I like most about good morning Britain is how they present their show. I like their intro music which is linked here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-byLeq8SqI (intro music for GMB)
What i also like about it is the graphics at the start. I’d like our show to have a strong intro, like this. We need to make a good logo that resonates with our show and the topics that we’ll be talking about. Our show will have fun parts but serious parts as well so I think the logo and how we present our show will be important.
My first idea has changed because we have now chosen our groups and we all have decided on an idea for the show. I have been looking at TikTok shows that people do, where they interview people on the street and we are using bits of that to incorporate in a segment of the show.
Looking at names for the show, we are trying to find a name that correlates to music and the culture of Bradford. We want something simple, clear and
As a group we have made a lot of decisions and are now making plans on how we are going to set out our show.
These are some ideas we wrote down on what we’d like our show to be like.
Our roles :
Shumona : Vision mixer/lighting technician
Kenzie: Director
Leon : Floor manager/editor
Meher and Henry : Interviewers
For the camera operators we may ask people to come in and help us out, but we have decided that we don’t really need to move the cameras during the show. We want the cameras to already be set up before we film, and me, the vision mixer will switch from cameras to ensure we get different angles so we can clearly see the presenters.
At the start of the show we are going to add some intro music. (We have not yet decided the music). This will play for approximately 10-15 seconds before our host will introduce the audience to the show. The interview will begin with our guest. Our main topic will be all about Bradford and the culture. We will have 3 cameras set up, and the camera operator will set them up so we can see the people in front of the camera clearly. The microphone will also be set up properly so we can hear them clearly.
When we’re done with the interview part we might go to our next section of our show. This will be street interviews filmed by our main cast and crew. There will be our two presenters walking around Bradford, asking questions we would like to be answered.. We will set cameras up, or have a camera operator so we can film it without hassle.. It will be added to the show after we have recorded it and the sound effects and music will be edited in.
When the second section is done we will have the music and entertainment to finish off the show. This will be the closing act and our host will say goodbye to the audience, the outro music will play as the camera pans out and it fades to the credits.
For the credits I would like to add any bonus parts of the show that didn’t make it into the episode and add any bloopers that we have from filming. As our names go by with our roles on the credits the music will fade and the show will end. I would like the show to be 15-25 minutes long, however it depends on how much we can film. We also have to make sure that it’s not too long (30 minutes or more) and not too short 15 minutes or less). Most shows we see on television are 25 to 30 minutes long however there are also advertisements, so ours should run for 20 to 25 minutes.
This is the set up i’d like in the studio. The vision mixer and director are of course behind the glass in the other room. The wireless headsets will help us communicate without the trouble of having to move rooms all the time. The cameras will be set up before we film,
Name ideas : ‘Bradford Live’ ‘Bradford TV’
The script will be for the interviews in the TV studio. The interviewer will have questions to ask, approximately 4 to questions on the genre they will be talking about.
Today is 19th of January, we have planned where and what we are going to film. We have planned where the cameras will be, and how they will move in the intro and outro. We have decided on the music and entertainment. Which will be one of our main cast members performing his own music. We need to write a solid script and think of our music that we’ll use throughout the show. We all have our roles that we have for each other and we know what we need to focus on.
A script we will use for the autocue:
It’s 30th of January and we have finished rehearsals for our show. Everything went well and we all know what to do in our role. As a vision mixer i have tried and tested the machine i use to switch the camera. I now understand how to use it since trying it multiple times. The director is the person that helped me when rehearsing as they told me what cameras to switch to at the right time.
DATES FOR SHOW REHEARSALS
Monday the 30th of Jan at 9:30pm – 3pm
Wednesday the 1st of Feb 9:30 am – 4:30 pm
DATES FOR FINAL SHOW BROADCAST
Wednesday the 8th of Feb 9:30 am – 4:30 pm
These are the dates for the rehearsals and our team needs to book a slot so we can practice our script, how to test out microphones, cameras and for me the vision mixer i can play around with the technology to help me understand how we’d like the show to be presented.
This is something i made to help me figure out tools on Adobe photoshop. This is something that helped when trying to make a logo that was good for our show.
Draft logo:
This is a simple logo that we might use in the intro and be used for branding and when people see our show.
The first logo below is without the Bradford logo because we might add a different background.
There are new logos that we all think is better and resonates with our show and Bradford. The second one is more colourful, has a better background and the font of the words have changed. This was made on photoshop, I like that it’s a lot more colourful, I like the microphone and television being incorporated into the title and it looks a lot more creative.
This is the first draft of the music for our intro. This was made by a member of our group and we all agreed that it sounds good and upbeat for the show.
Today is the first of February. We have filmed our street interview with Henry and Meher as the presenters. We had the cameraman hold the camera and microphone while trying to find people who will answer our question. The presenters also had cue cards to show what questions they want to ask. Finding people was difficult but in the end we got a good couple of interviews from people who wanted to be on camera.
It’s the 8th of February and the intro has been fully done. The same music is used and we’ve added Bradford in the back. Leon edited this as he is our main editor and he incorporated one of our presenters voices (Henry), towards the end to introduce our viewers. We will use this at the very start of the show as our intro.
We loaned out a camera and a microphone from the central media services, and it was used for the day. We had an SD card so we could get all the footage and later on edit it and put it into the show.
We also got the opportunity to find out about issues that have been going on in Bradford. There was a protest in city park (school strikes) and we got a couple of pictures of people with posters, and we managed to get an interview from someone. These are some protestors standing with their posters.
This is a little behind the scenes of what it looked like when we started filming. We found a neutral background, the people in front of the camera are facing towards it whilst the cameraman holds it steady. This particular photo was taken when we found a protester from the school strikes.
When we film our final show in the TV studio we will be prepared but this week we need to make the final changes to the intro, the music and have the script ready for the auto-cue in the studio.
This is our street interview that was filmed on the first of February. This as edited by Henry and we all agreed to make the street interview as comedy style to make our viewers laugh and enjoy the show whilst also answering questions we’d like to hear from the people of Bradford.
