Final Major Project - Pitch Document

Final Major Project Pitch – Cat and Casey

Title – tbc
Format – 15 x 1 minute episodes
In short 1 minute ‘how to’ guides for students, we aim to advise, inform and entertain new or clueless students. With anything and everything from how to cook a basic, healthy meal on a tight budget, finance issues, living with new people, coping with being away from home to staying safe on a freshers night out.

Blank will aim to stylishly empower students in an informal, fun way, something they can simply log onto online and catch the latest episode at their leisure. It will be fronted by a likeable, friendly character, using humour, animations and fast paced editing.

With the UCA student union in mind for a broadcasting partner, we will brand our website with them in mind, sticking to their colour schemes.




With a possibility of expanding out to a student forum, for them to post suggestions or questions of things they want to see in the ‘how to’ guides.

The videos will be location based, rather than set based. Locations are dependable on the subject in the episode.

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..
