Development After Joe Session

Straight After our session with Joe, Connor and I were able to discuss and decide on a few points hat were given to us as feedback.

Here are a few notes taken while we were discussing.

Development:

Demographic- All Ages

Channel Broadcast- ITV 1/2/3

Audience- Minimal Participation

Presenter- Preferably disabled, charismatic.

VTs- Family/ Friends included, possible footage of accomplishments (depending on Copyright).

We also created a running order which we shall work with for the mean time before we ineviatbly make some changes. We even made sure to see how much time would be reserved for speaking with each guest after the amount of time taken up by the other parts of the show.

Running Order
-1:00/ 1:30 - Intro VT- Introduces themselves and show.
-0:15/ 0:20 - first guest is introduced.

-First Guest continues speaking.

-0:15/ 0:20- Third guest is introduced
-Third guest speaking

-Total for VTs - 8:30, With Break (2:30/ 3:00)- 11:00/ 11:30 minutes
At the moment, 6:10 talking time for each guest.

Other developments were finding certain websites where we might be able to source some people for the show from, consisting of certain schools that cater to special needs.

We also looked at who we might get to host the show. We looked at various casting sites such as MandyActors.com (previously Casting Call Pro) and other sites specific to casting people with disabilities. It was decided that we could cast someone who has a disability so that both the audience and the interviewees can connect to them due to them being in a similar type of situation.

Connor did suggest trying to get Warwick Davis to present. I did feel this might be jumping the gun a bit and would be hard to get hold of, never mind the expense, but Connor did acknowledge that. If that would be possible, however, then that would be a great opportunity for us and be just the type of person we could be looking for.
