WBL - shoots I was on and did :)
This video was the behind the scenes of the christmas advert I was on, with the fake snow and things :)
FMP
Well!
We are still in the production stages of Noodles. We are hoping to finish tomorrow, but have booked thursday too for safety.
We are in the studios today uploading and checking footage, so if there are any hiccups we have two days to rectify it.
Last week we did the 'kitchen' scenes so we relocated to my dads house, arri lights in tow, and cooked lots of random things. We have had trouble with focusing in on extreme close ups, but Simon has just told us that we have to be about 2 and a half feet away otherwise it will be soft.
The thought of all the editing we have to do in the next two weeks is very daunting. We are prepared to be chained to final cut. And also to our own computers when we get home to do our reports!
But I am really enjoying working with Cathy D (HA!) and I feel we have worked very hard and well together. This semester has gone SO fast because we have been working so much. But I have really enjoyed it :)

FMP
Cat and I have been super super organised and busy. This is why I havn't blogged for a while...no time!!!
I have been invading Cats house most days for the past few weeks, we had been working on scripts, shot lists, schedules, we also went to town and bought all our props on tuesday and then emptied our own two houses for more set and prop, as well as stealing steve's put up bed!
We began our shoot yesterday, the video studio at campus is awesome, they have a dolly/track and rigged ceiling lights. Although it is in no way sound proof so we have had a lot of sound issues.
We were able to load in our set on tuesday night so we were ready to go yesterday morning, which was very helpful.
Although today we have had MAJOR stress today, hence why I am blogging and not shooting right now. We ran out of memory on our cards, we had prepared for this and had bought a spare card, but for some reason it does not work! We then tried to offload at the campus, but they don't have sony xd cam transfer software!! So then, we raced over to the studios (after having to get someone to unblock my car) and then Simon wasnt here so his office was locked so we couldnt get the cables!! But then, Dan Baugh, the genius, said, take the SD out and put it into the computer! But we could only offload one, as the other is locked into the reader.
Its so annoying that this has happened as we could not have been more organised for this shoot!
ANYWAY its finished, so back to the campus! ahhhhhhhhh.

Work based learning - last day blues!
Thrursday was my last day at cherryduck, and I was a bit sad! I got them all a thank you card, and they were so lovely, they said I can go back anytime I like, if there is a cool shoot going on or anything I am welcome to come along!
I really enjoyed my work placement, although it was so very tiring (most days were pretty much 8am-8pm, if not longer, which was a shock to my system) but I learnt so much, and was able to apply everything I have learnt to real life situations. Kim (the producer) took me under her wing and she also told me that she thinks I would be a great documentary researcher! Although I don't think I want to do that..its nice to know I guess!
I also drove there twice in the last week!! I dont drive on the motorway as I'm a scare'dy cat, but I know that working in this industry I am going to HAVE to drive places, trains are far to expensive and time consuming, so I overcame my fear and I drove into east london!!!
I'm so glad that I found this as my work experience, I got to experience pre production, production and post production, all in one building and how these things effect a business. It was a great place to work in and I hope that I do go back!!

Work Based Learning Unit - update
Last week was my last week at Cherryduck, and although I supposed to go out on another 5D shoot, it got postponed :( So last week was just an office week, where Kim had me doing things for her.
They recently bought a huge server, before that they were all working from hard drives, which caused a lot of problems as they kept having to switch computers. So, Kim had me go through all the hard drives and export all there projects and save them on the server. I also had to go through and make clean edits of everything, so taking off all music, graphics and cutaways so we ended up with just clean pieces to camera. It was nice for me to work on final cut as i could get to grips with it again and I learnt a few more shortcuts.
She also had me doing some research on fashion bloggers, seeing what kind of video content they had. I also had to go through a selection of stills they did at an Olympic event, select good ones and send them to the client.
In other news! Alex was editing the shoot we did in Chelsea with the 5D and some of my footage was in there!! We said he will get it compressed and email me so that I can put it up on here!

Work Based Learning Unit- update and PLEA TO SIMON!
So, Thursday, Alex and I went to a shoot in Chelsea, aside from the fact that we sat in the car for a total of 6 hours because of horrendous traffic (3hrs there, 3 hrs back), it was an amazing day!
Simon, you will be thrilled to hear that it completely changed my attitude and fear towards 'the dreaded camera/technology'. We used a Canon 5D, and this is my plea to you - PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can we get one?! They are absolutely AMAZING!! They literally produce the most beautiful footage and I found it so much easier to use than our EX's. And for me to get excited about a camera is amazing in itself. Alex let me film loads of stuff that day, and I also did all the sound recording, as the 5D's don't have the ability to record sound.
The shoot itself was a photo-shoot for Westfield again, and Alex and I were doing a behind the scenes, we were in a photographer's studio, which was an awesome space, and he was also really cool (Ted Humble-Smith). It was a much more chilled day than the commercial shoot, and there were a lot less people.
I feel like I have been able to apply the theory we have learnt at uni to real life situations. Although I knew all terms and camera technicalities, I feel now, I can actually do them, if that makes sense? As you know, I have always been afraid of the camera, and not had confidence to use it but this day really, really helped me through this fear, and I absolutely loved it. I also found the zoom on the 5D so much easier and found myself doing wicked focus pulls. Once the footage has been edited, I will upload the film and point out if any shots used were my own.
Last ditch attempt - PLEASE PLEASE can we get a 5D :)

Work Based Learning Unit - update
Yesterday we had a shoot in the studio, it was a photo - shoot and a behind the scenes video and video interview- for Bio Oil. I got to see them in action and help out with a few things, but I was mainly in the offices, still working on the online video content research. I have done women's mags, men's mags, music mag's, car's, PR etc to seek out potential clientele. I am learning that a lot of the online video content on a lot of websites, is pretty crap! It feels like companies want to jump on the multi media, virtual, digital-ness of our era, but it seems for a lot of companies, it comes as an after thought, something the shove on the webpage to say they have done it. For example, I found a how to video on the marie claire website that could have been shot on a phone, by a child it was so awful. So there is a massive market there, which some companies, for example Look Magazine, have really caught onto, and their online videos are fantastic.
Tomorrow, I think Alex and I are out on a shoot for Westfield, so i'll update you on that then!
But for today, its more research!

Worked Based Learning Unit - Project Update
Also! I forgot to say why Kim asked me to do this, it was to check out what their online video content was like, so she could she the potential for new clients.
Work Based Learning Unit - project Update
Today, Kim asked me to research every magazine I could think of, and check what their online video content was like, and do a little write up of each one.
I have not finished, but I thought I'd quickly upload what I have done so far while Im still here. Forgive me if these come out a little jumbled, I'm screen grabbing them and i'm not sure how I can upload them in order.
Also, blogging to come for yesterday, this is just a quick thing before I leave the office.

Work Based Learning Unit - CHRISTMAS!
Today, I went on a shoot, that turned out NOT to be a behind the scenes of a photoshoot, but a live shoot! It was a christmas TV commercial for Westfield shopping centre. It was a very long day, but so insightful! Alex picked me up at 8am and I arrived home at 9.30pm!
There was synthetic snow, christmas trees and floating teddies! Basically, the concept is that all the products, toys, clothes, jewellery, electronics, cosmetics etc etc, escape from the shopping centre at night and go into this house. They either climb through the window, go down the chimney or go through the letterbox. They did this with these 4 amazing puppetiers, they attached all the objects to rods or for some, like the teddy bear, they could put their hands inside and make him walk and dance etc.
The actual shoot (as we were behind the scenes, shot on a Z7) was shot on Arri Alexa, which before today, meant nothing to me, but apparently thats pretty amazing kit and it did look awesome.
I learnt a great deal, especially about production shoots in general, we were like 3 hrs behind schedule, it takes so long to get the perfect shot, especially as it will be heavily edited to cut out the puppetiers. For instance they always had to get a clean, empty shot after filming every object, for the edit to be possible. I also learnt that there is a lot of waiting around on set! And that if it is catered, the food is amazing! But on a serious note, it was so insightful, and Alex even let me get my hands on the camera and do a bit of filming!
Alex and I also did some interviews, so I mic'ed them up and assisted there.
All in all in was amazing, I shall upload some pictures I took now, and once its done, if I can, I will upload our behind the scenes, and the actual ad itself.

Work Based Learning Unit - update
Just got home from a long day in london, very tired!
Today, I shadowed Alex, an editor for a while, he was working on a promo piece for Philips, which I will try to upload when its done, that was interesting. Especially as the footage he was given wasn't great, it was shot on a 5D, and there were a lot of focus issues, so he had to 'fix' it a lot, which he wasn't happy about!
I also sorted out a big box of random tapes for Kim, the producer, labelled them and put them all into date order. I also did some other general help for Kim, such as scanning in assets that they had been sent, and organising getting them sent back.
Kim also gave me a document that I scanned in, that was something a client gave them when they had commissioned them, which I will upload after this post. She was going to let me scan in the Philips documents, (costing sheet, shooting script and contributor briefs) but she didn't think it was a good idea, as the piece hasn't gone live yet.
Most excitingly, I am going out to a shoot with them tomorrow, its a behind the scenes of a photoshoot for Westfield Christmas campaign! Its in a location house, in West London, and its going to be a very long day, but I'm excited. Call time is 9.45am and I believe i'ts going to be at least a 12 hr day.
Also! I'm going on some other shoots next week, including an evening one next Thursday, at a bloggers event for a new film (Michelle couldn't remember the film!)so I'm very excited about that!
I'll upload those images from the document Kim gave me now, and its off to bed for me, as I have a looong day tomorrow!

Final Major Project - Research Update
So we emailed Tony Reeves, UCA's Learning technologist, to query some of our website issues...
Hello Tony,
Simon, our tutor, emailed you to query a web design for us, and we just have a few questions for you to validate our ideas, if thats okay.
So, IF we were to make theses vides for the SU website, would it be possible to have more than one video on one page, (15 videos in total) or would they all have to be on a separate pages? Also, is there a certain size that they would have to be?
Thank you very much, Casey Parker & Cat Dorsett.

Work based Learning Unit - Update
So disappointing news to report, I had my first day yesterday, however, I didn't really do anything, the studios is randomly dead this week so there was nothing to do, I kind of shadowed the producer and watched a bit of editing and helped out generally, but they have told me not to come in for the rest of the week as there really is nothing for me to do, but next week there should be more going on so I should have more exciting news. I am rather gutted as was very excited to get stuck in, however it gives Cat and I valuable time to get on with FMP stuff. Sorry to report bad news, better luck next week I hope..

Major Project Update
Now, since my doc idea has kind of hit a brick wall, its time to ditch it! As much as I would love to do it, its not at all new or original. So, as I really like Cat's 'How to' idea, and I can really 'see it' I am going to collaborate with her. I really hope this does not come across that I couldnt think of any of my own ideas so i'll work with Cat, I would love to have made docs, but as I say its not original. And I think I could put a lot of great input into Cat's project and would work well together. I feel I have strengths in contacting people for casting, broadcasting opportunities and generally getting things set up, so I can take the weight off her with that. I am excited to do this as I can really see this coming together.
'How to' research to come!
'How to' research to come!
Major Project unit- idea development - or not..
So, I wanted to do short, human interest docs, that were inspiring or touching. However 4thought, 3 minute wonders and bbc2 video nations, especially the 3 minute wonders are pretty much what I had in mind to do.. So I guess its back to the drawing board? :(

Major Project Unit- idea development
So I am looking into doing a doc series, and here is a sort of brainstorm of my thoughts in how to get an idea(s)
-BBC3/ Channel 4 target - therefore not so heavy, more personal, human interest, mainly youth orientated
- look up the production companies that have made docs that i like
- look for a 'gap' in the market in terms of what bbc3/ channel 4 may not have made a doc about before
- check out local press stories, as finding a local story is going to be much more viable to actually make
- what would i like to see?
- check out newspapers, helen said especially The Mail has a lot of human interest stories
- find a WHY for the story e.g a recent event, anniversary etc
- turn the story on its head, for example, a recent story has been the london riots, but that is too 'heavy' for my interests, however
if I could find a sort of bi-story of the people affected, it could alot more personal and lighter.
So, I looked up the production company that made BBC3's "Small teen, big world", which is Nine Lives Media, and it conspired that they also made -
"Nightmare in Suburbia: The Perfect Murder (#3.1)" (2011) ... Production Company
World's Oldest Conjoined Twins Move Home (2010) (TV) ... Production Company
Losing One of My Giant Legs (2010) (TV) ... Production Company
Dancer with Tiny Legs (2010) (TV) ... Production Company
Small Teen, Big World (2010) (TV) ... Production Company
The Man with Half a Body (2010) (TV) ... Production Company
"Extraordinary People: Britain's Tiniest Toddlers" (2009) ... Production Company
"Nightmare in Suburbia" (2008) ... Production Company
"Nightmare in Suburbia: Kidnapped (#1.6)" (2008) ... Production Company
I then looked up "Tulisa, my mum and me" and found this was made by MentornMedia, who also made a massive number of other similar pieces -
"Underage and pregnant", "Katie: My Beautiful Friends", "An Idiot abroad", "Night Cops", "I can't stop stealing", "Cutting edge: Katie: My beautiful face", "The man who can't stop hiccupping", "Cutting edge: Madeleine was her" and many many more!
Equally, Firecracker Films produced "Big Fat Gypsy Wedding", "Glamour Models, Mum and Me", "Our daughter the mermaid", "Baboon Woman", "My Penis and Everyone else's", "The Man who loves with Bears", "Pyromania", "Lock up your sons" and many many many more.
-BBC3/ Channel 4 target - therefore not so heavy, more personal, human interest, mainly youth orientated
- look up the production companies that have made docs that i like
- look for a 'gap' in the market in terms of what bbc3/ channel 4 may not have made a doc about before
- check out local press stories, as finding a local story is going to be much more viable to actually make
- what would i like to see?
- check out newspapers, helen said especially The Mail has a lot of human interest stories
- find a WHY for the story e.g a recent event, anniversary etc
- turn the story on its head, for example, a recent story has been the london riots, but that is too 'heavy' for my interests, however
if I could find a sort of bi-story of the people affected, it could alot more personal and lighter.

Very helpful and interesting article about commissioning documentaries!

Major Project Unit- Research
I think I may research deeper into documentary commissions as I feel I have a particular interests in that area.
BBC DOCS
Documentaries - What we're looking for...
Documentaries for the BBC should engage with the here and now, and challenge the audience to broaden their horizons or see their world from different perspectives. We're particularly interested in how we might make more traditional docs subjects modern and relevant, rather than worthy or predictable. On the whole we're quite flexible with slots and shapes, so please be inventive and don't self-censor too much - the best ideas will find the best slots.
there is an interesting video on this link-
http://www.bbc.co.uk/commissioning/briefs/tv/browse-by-genre/documentaries/
BBC3 DOCS COMMISSION INFO
Docs on THREE engage with subjects and issues that matter to a young but broad BBC3 audience.
Think both about the most important issues for a young adult audience (16-24 at its core and 16-34 at its broadest), and about their perspective on the issues that affect us all.
On one side of our slate, the stories are compelling and often intimate - the extraordinary personal stories of ordinary people.
On the other, this is THE place for docs to be entertaining, bold and upfront in style and tone to break through to future docs audiences.
Whatever the idea, a punchy title that will capture the attention on the EPG is crucial.
This kind of programming is driven by originality, so we're flexible here.
Requirement
Provocative formats and social experiments are big brand building properties for the channel.
In some of our docs we are looking for mischief, humour, and challenge - with plenty of opportunity for ob-docs content. This audience gets lots of entertainment from people-watching but the best ideas also challenge the way young people live their lives. Think about the central question at the core of any proposition. What is the purpose? If the purpose is clear, ideas can be thought-provoking.
BBC2
Our goal on BBC TWO is to be recognised as the home of documentaries. This means that diversity and range of ideas, voices and tone are prerequisite across the slate.
Documentaries should make BBC TWO feel relevant and modern - populating the channel with compelling real lives, interests and concerns.
To manage our commissions, we split the slate into entertaining and immersive ideas that explore better ways to live your life on one side, and modern provocative, challenging and contemporary subjects on the other.
In particular, we're looking to strengthen our reputational docs about modern life. These one offs and series should simultaneously inspire and challenge viewers to reappraise their view on modern life and society.
BBC1
Docs on ONE play a key role in building both the distinctiveness and the broad appeal of ONE's factual output.
All titles should have broad mainstream appeal, and have the ability to both entertain and inform along the way.
They should also be rooted in the present tense and the national mindset, telling the strong human stories behind the big national headlines and dominant social issues.
Though they should have an accessible entry point for a broad audience, at the same time, they shouldn't be afraid of tackling important issues or of innovating with modern new shapes and concepts.

Major Project Unit - research
I have been researching to come up with ideas for the final major project and have looked at what people are looking to commission to get an idea for what people want to make and see.
Channel 4 had a huge list of things they are looking for and here are a few that took my interest.
DOCUMENTARIES
What are your commissioning priorities?
We are looking for single films in the Cutting Edge strand, Documentary Series, half-hour films from new directors in the First Cut strand, and international feature docs which we showcase in the True Stories strand on More4.
What are you not interested in?
There are some ideas that clearly don't fit with our stated purpose of reflecting Contemporary Britain, and won't work for our C4 output.
What is the biggest creative challenge your team or genre faces?
Finding the really big ambitious ideas that will re-write the rules in the new post Big Brother world, and will break through to become major events in the schedule.
We are always looking for great new presenters.
So what are you looking for?
We want incredible stories from a range of ideas and styles - news related and access driven, quirky and eccentric, observational, concept driven or simply off the wall - we do not want films that tick boxes or deliver essays on identity politics. We are looking for fabulous, larger than life characters in surprising situations or worlds we haven't seen before.
DRAMA
What are your commissioning priorities?
Our priority is to deliver high quality drama which entertains, challenges and informs audiences and which fulfils the Channel 4 remit.
What are the tariff prices for programmes you currently commission?
These vary according to the project, we don't commission to slots either in terms of price of schedule.
What is the biggest creative challenge your team or genre faces?
Fulfilling the Channel 4 remit in an innovative and original way
What advice would you give to new talent companies keen to connect with your team?
Please do think about the Channel 4 brand and audience before you pitch, please keep proposals to 2 pages and don't send taster tapes, we prefer to appraise the projects on the merits of the proposal.
ENTERTAINMENT
What are your commissioning priorities?
Reality and Event Shows
our priority is to find a big entertainment reality show for 2012. We're looking for high concept formats or gameshows that are a departure from Big Brother, stripped across one week or two. Shows with scale and a Channel 4 twist.
Friday night
in the Autumn we are launching a number of new shows on Friday nights, taking the viewer from 8pm through to 11pm.
8pm is a slot that has recently opened up for us and we're looking for game shows or quiz shows with a broad family appeal.
Million Pound Drop is cutting through at 9pm and in June we're launching a new show; The King Of.... with Claudia Winkleman.
And at 10pm we want the entertainment Holy Grail- a big Friday night entertainment show, that's driven by big name talent, possibly live. We're looking for shows that have a top-line concept that runs throughout. The model we're using is Derren Brown's The Events - a pre-recorded or live studio event with polished, high-end VTs that tell a story.
New Talent
Bringing new talent to the channel continues to be a big priority for us. 11 o'clock has opened up and we've got money now to spend on ideas that help to grow new talent. Stand Up For The Week has done this for us and we are looking for otjer weekly formats and archive shows.
Mid week at 10pm
We're looking for formats to play mid week - they might be game shows, entertainment reality formats, panel shows or hidden camera shows.
FILM4
What are your commissioning priorities?
Film4 develops and co-finances feature length films for theatrical release in cinemas. Although ultimately we are looking for films that will eventually play on both Channel 4 and Film4, (the digital channel), we do not develop films specifically for televised broadcast.
We look for range across our subject matter and budgets, though these will tend to be contemporary stories, rather than period pieces and will usually be made with British led talent or with British content.
Film4 is looking for material with a distinctive voice that aims to push the boundaries within a given film genre.
Q: What are you not interested in?
As a general rule, we do not develop films for family audiences, nor do we look to develop period pieces.
For any queries relating to completed films, you will need to contact the Acquisitions department within the channel who deal with licensing finished films for televised broadcast.
Currently we do not have an open submission system for short films. However, we do make a number of short films each year for which we either target talent or we make in connection to a feature project. Please continue to check our website for up to date information.
T4 & MUSIC
What are your commissioning priorities?
Primarily cost effective programme ideas and formats which feel fresh and new, yet offer an alternative from what we already have on offer. Our shows are targeted at the 16-34 audience so need to be broad in appeal, as well as reflecting our audience's interests.
What are you not interested in?
Magazine formats or film shows within T4 are not really what we're pursuing as we already offer much of this kind of content within T4 links. We're also very well served for live music performance (both within T4 and late night Music on 4). What we'd like is new and alternate ways of capturing contemporary music and celebrity - other than just live performance. We've also recently commissioned a number of formats around unsigned bands so we aren't currently looking to pursue anything in this particular area.
COMEDY
For C4 we're looking for returnable sitcom scripts for 10pm slots - something with a defining and distinctive setting or conceptual hook to it that would mark it our from anything traditional of conventional in a mainstream sense. We want ideas and setting that haven't been tackled or covered before.
For E4 we're looking for performer/writer led ideas from more emerging talent as well as grabby clip or prank show ideas that would repeat well.
Sending in teaser tapes or you-tube links or inviting us to read-throughs or showcases is always a welcome relief from wading through tons of script.
What are you not interested in?
Anything we already have or exists elsewhere. Please don't just send in loose treatments and one page proposals. In order to fully gauge the writer's voice, humour, originality and ability we'd need to see a script.
Please note we no longer accept scripts from individuals. You must either go through an agent or production company.
Please DO NOT submit proposals to the COMEDY department using the online submission system.
There seems to be a lot of scope here for docs and drama, and if we wanted a challenge; the music genre.
