Ideas of how the show will work so far:

Opening titles - graphics or VT  - 30 seconds - sound SOT

Establishing shot to start - to show audience whole set

Presenters walk down catwalk intro show

Teaser - what's to come up in the show

Presenters sat on sofa - discuss trends of the week

Trends of week - show 3 trends on screen and talk

Walk over to catwalk whilst talking

Trends styled 2 ways - older younger

1 at time the models come out wearing the trend. Then both models at end come down together to show the trend styled for younger and older.

Back to sofa - walk and talk

Male trends - 3 trends shown on screen

Male catwalk (same way as female catwalk)

Link to VT - presenters do challenge - find outfit for each other from high street stores - with budget 

Mannequins of outfits in middle - talk about what they picked and why and whether they like the outfits

Live walk to soft area

Sting

Fashion fails - audience member - handheld camera - on screen as well - handheld mic - pictures of the item they're talking about?? Or bring in the item?

Repeat for one more person - interesting people with interesting clothing fails

VT - online clothing fails - expectations vs reality of ordering cheap things online e.g. ordering a pair of trousers and they end up being barbie trousers etc.

Whilst determining the structure of the show, we also thought more about how the set design should compliment this.

We have decided to incorporate a catwalk into the set, coming in from the back walk towards the right hand side.

The soft area / cosy chair area will then be on the left hand side.

The catwalk will allow us to display the trends on the models.

The soft area allows space to hold interviews / discuss trends.

This is a rough plan of how the set will look.

Running order:


What I have learnt from todays session:

- I need to be more confident with my ideas - this was holding us back from getting a final structure. I feel that I have developed this confidence today by voicing my ideas and listening to other people's feedback. We managed to take a couple of ideas and merge them together e.g. Old To New and Music Fashion have now become one topic. We also managed to come up with a completely new idea in the form of a drag act coming down the catwalk. This will help lift the show and help set the tone of the show. We need to make sure the rest of the show is delivered in such a way that the drag act doesn't seem out of place - we need to make the tone of the show consistent.
- I have become more confident voicing my opinions - suggesting what will and won't work from other people's ideas which I feel is a key trait for a producer. Previously I have not been keen handling a role with a lot of responsibility but I am becoming more comfortable being a producer and performing the tasks that are given to me (e.g. today's task was to nail down the content of the show which was mainly down to me and my co producer Mel - with contributions from the others - and we completed it).
- I feel that there is much more direction with the idea now - now that we have a solid structure, we can fill the sections with content - we have time limits to stick to which will make it easier to determine how much we can put in each section.
- We now need to develop the sections further - this involves splitting people back up into research groups and giving out different areas to look into. This will help us determine the content of the show. We need to know exactly what we want the steals of the season to be, we need to know what else we want to mention in the old to new section etc.
