ITS FORMING… SLOWLY BUT SURELY
So after this weeks meeting i can finally say that we are starting to determine some structure! Wohoo! To be honest i didn’t think the day would come where i could say i think we are on the right track, but today I am confident that our crew of passionate rookie Tv enthusiasts will slowly but surely KILL IT.
As i essentially only have two weeks until i nick off to the snow, I have accomplished quite a few tasks that are aiding in the development of the seminar. Firstly, i acted on the idea i played with last week of emailing an old work experience employer , Sharon (who co-incidentally happens to be my second cousin :/). She is a producer on Fremantle Medias TV show of Grand Designs Australia, so I thought she would be an extremely appropriate and knowledgeable guest for the seminar. The following is the email i sent her; lets hope i receive a response soon enough.
THE MEETING:
In this weeks meeting with the rest of the group members, we further delved into the allocation of everyones roles for the development of the seminar. As i am leaving in a week and a half, and i feel as though i need to pull my weight before the seminar (as i can’t be there on the day), i thought id be best suited to work on the promo video. At this stage it is going to be Miguel, Jenny and I working on the project, however we are going to employ a friend of ours… the famous… DAVID DELMENICOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Sorry i got totally carried away, but David is truly Australia’s next big star and sorry if you are some how reading this David and are getting creeped out, which is totally valid. Anyway the point I’m trying to make is David will starring in our video will make it truly fabulous! Whilst we are on the topic of David, in this weeks meeting myself and a few other group members came up with the idea of asking him to host the entire seminar. I believe that his stage presence would be extremely entertaining and thus engaging to the students in the seminar audience. So we contacted him via Facebook, and at this stage he is locked in to host!
Miguel, Jenny and David and I will shoot and edit the promo video all of next week. We have came up with the idea of having David go on a ‘remote journey’ of his own in the video. We tossed up the idea of green screening him into iconic scenes throughout Television history and essentially having the TV remote taking him on a journey throughout the years of television. I think this idea could work brilliantly, as all we need to do is book the green screen and download a bunch of scenes that we think we could structurally insert David into! At this stage, we’ve come up with the following scenes that we think could work quite well:
