STUDIO PRODUCTION • Tickets and Sales

-



When coming up  with ideas to go with selling's the tickets, we discussed them during a whole class production meeting where it was mentioned that we should put a price on the tickets to help raise money for a charity. Throughout multiple production meetings we decided that we wouldn't put a price on the tickets because we were worried that we wouldn't get enough audience members but we did decide that we would have collection buckets which the runners would walk round with on the day so that people had the option to donating to the charity we chose. 


We decided to sell tickets using Eventbrite which was an easy way for us keep track of how many tickets we had sold, how many were left and it was also an easy way for the audience to get tickets as all you had to go was enter your name and email address and then how many tickets you wanted to reserve. 

For the ticket page we designed it to include a description of the show and what it is about. We also included the time and date which is important for people to know and we also embedded the trailer in on the page so that people could watch it to get more of an idea of what the show is about. 

We advertised the ticket pages through our social media pages for the show and we also got people from our class to share the post we put out so that they reached a wider audience. We put up 55 tickets which left us with 10 spares just in case but they were all booked by the set design team so in terms of tickets soled we had one ticket remaining. However on the day of the show not everyone how reserved a ticket turned up.

Writing a Script

-

*A screenplay only tells us what we can see and hear*  Important things to consider are  Title page - which should contain the name of the story, the writers name, draft date and contact details which are important if you are handing out your script to people. Scene headings - the scene heading should state whether it is to take place inside or outside using INT. or EXT. It should also contain the location, e.g. BEDROOM, HOUSE and time of day - DAY/NIGHT Action -  The action under the scene heading should contain enough detail so that the reader can picture the location or action but concise enough that it is just a long paragraph of description, it should also be written in the present tense.  Characters - when introducing a new character, their name should be written in capital letters so that the reader knows they are a new characters. If the character is not in the scene but can be heart or are a voice over, then (V/O) or (O/S) should be used.  Dialog

Scott and Bailey - TV Drama

Scott and Bailey is a British crime drama focusing on the lives of two female detectives. DC Rachel Bailey and DC Janet Scott are not only work colleagues but close friends, a main part of the story is their relationship and the problems they have.  In each episode, there are 3 to 4 different story lines, the main one being based in the police station, centred on a crime and the others about the personal lives of the main characters. For my script, I would like to do something similar, I want to have the main story line revolve around a major case they have given, and then the personal lives of my two main characters, Shane and Annie.  The characters have many flaws that are pointed out in multiple episodes. For my character Shane, I want his flaws to be quite relatable. Through his dialogue and mannerisms, I want to reveal to the audience that he is wary of new people and finds it hard to trust them and that he is also emotionally immature and afraid of commitment b

I chose to be the director of photography (DOP) because I feel the over the course of the last two years my camera and lighting skills have increased greatly and I wanted to focus of those skills more in my final year. To fully immerse myself into being a DOP, it is important that I researched deeply into the role and what it would include. Being a Director of photography "includes creating the visual identity, or look of the film/ tv programme, they work with the Director, camera crew and lighting department to achieve this and they manage all aspects of filming, from ordering and overseeing equipment to reviewing footage." (Creative Skillset, 2017) My main tasks will include creating the overall look of Young & Famous and putting into play the vision of the director. I will be focussing the camera and lighting aspects of the role and make the technical decisions as well as some creative ones. Framing: for this, I will work closely with the dir
