TV Module: Week 5

This week was the final run thoughs before the show. Due to issues with Uni lectures clashing, Emma took the role of Laura as the main girl. Jake was able to make the rehearsals this week and picked up his role very well and quickly.

TV Module: Week 4

This week we had our first run through of the show to see where we were at. Laura wasn't able to make it this week due to clashes with lectures at Uni and the same with Jake. As a first run through the show didn't go too bad however with the vision mixer broken, there was no way of knowing how well the vision mixing would have gone.

TV Module: Week 3

This week we started to put together a plan for the show's structure. We also decided between us all who would do what role, for instance there were four TV cameras which needed operating, two people needed for the sound desk, auto cue etc, as well as directors, floor manager and more. We also cast the roles of the girl, the three lads and the presenter. Alex was cast as the presenter, while our friend Laura was cast as the main girl. Craig from the course was cast as one of the contestants with his friend 'Matty' as the cocky guy and our friend Jake as the normal guy.

TV Module: Week 2

This week we spent a lot of time finalizing a name for the show. In the end we decided to call the show 'Date or Mate'. The rest of this lecture was spent being shown the equipment in the studio by lecturer Gary. This covered everything from the TV cameras in the studio to the autocue, the sound desk and everything else in the control room such as the camera switcher for the live output.
