The colour scheme for the website is hot pink, gold and white. These colours make the website look colourful yet elegant. The hot pink is the signature colour for Jeffree as it is his favourite colour, this also gives the website a personal touch.

unit 23:multi-cam production evaluation

Before the official production our group had a practice run of the TV show to ensure that the recorded show ran smoothly without any errors or complications. The show ran for eighteen minutes with the thirty second add breaks timed in. The equipment we had used was three cameras one in the middle of the studio and two on either side, although we only has two camera men the floor manager had made sure that the middle camera was recording and was focused. We had tables and chairs for the contestants and setting up the sound which took 15 minutes to do.

In my roles as Production manager I had made sure that all of the cast knew what they had to do and which order the games were in as well as making sure that they had a microphone, iPad and iPad stand on the tables. I also had to make sure that the host knew which order everything was in, that he had a microphone and he had his question card in his hand. As well as being a PM I was also in charge of the TelePrompTer making sure that the script was correct and ensuring that the speed was at a pace that the host could read it.

 

During the post production the recorded sound was not correct therefore we had to use the practice clips for sound and the official footage for the camera edits and the better quality footage adding the images and extra clips to the video.

 

From this production I have learned about the various roles needed to create a good production team and final product, although there was some complications they were looked over and settled during this production.

Unit 23:Multi-cam studio diary

Dear Diary,

The final run went well each group member worked well in their role. Those who participated in the game show knew what they had to do after I had answered the questions they had and the same for the host. I helped the camera crew set up and set the stage up for the contestants which took us 15 minutes to set up and after we finished it looks us 15 minutes to pack everything away.

This was our final run through before the show was being recorded properly, which went extremely well and was organised. we had to allocate our individual roles so that everyone knew what they had to do within the group. we all performed very well and worked at a professional standard. Getting the studio set up for out show took 15 minutes and all the paperwork that was needed was ready and given to those who needed it.

even though my only job was PM I had set up the equipment, got the set ready and I had set up the TelePrompTer and I was in charge of moving it while the host was reading from it.

Unit 23: multi-cam production studio diary/ meeting report

Once we ran through our show in the show, we had a little meeting about what we can change and improve. We discussed issues and correction for the next run through.
Issues:

• 4th Ipad Vision Mix, not to click off the app so it can be saved

• Teleprompter up and running to practise with - Host to learn his parts also

• Cameramen need to study shot list

• Sound and Lighting needs to be improved 

Feedback:

• Sound - separate sound, get a jingle 

• Get footage from Ipad/Saved 

• Handheld camera to get shots of guests on their game and ipad.

• The set like the tables needs to be back so it's all black at the back.

Unit 23: multi-cam production- studio diary

Dear Diary 

(09/01/17)

As a class we learnt how to setup the monitors (IPads) syncing them by a network server and once they were all connected we all had a practise. I had a go on the actually filming so learning the transition. The format on the app was clear and easy to use so I understood all the features and elements quickly. Our cameramen were able to play around for the software, which gained them more knowledge about it. In order to go live you have to tap to preview then double tap to select it.

unit 23: multi-cam production studio diary

Dear Diary,

Today was our first day in the studio and I was setting up the camera equipment and the set. As the PM I was discussing the show and the script to the cast so that they would know what they had to do and how to play each game and what to say, once they were all seated. We had a few problems but they had been resolved.
