Organising our show

Proposal

My group and I have decided to make a magazine show called ‘The Johnny Stick Show’ including: special guest, celebrity interviews, sports talk and girl gossip. Our target audience is 16-21 year olds and our show will be fithteen minutes long, broadcasted every Wednesday on T4.

Havering Asks

One of my most memorable experiences was being part of the production team in which Michael Cockrell was the host of ‘Havering Asks’ Influenced by Question Time, Havering Asks involved three schools coming to Havering College to asks education related questions to a panel of five.

Below are the roles of a traditional multi camera production, my production team and I assigned each other some of these roles:

       Sound engineer

       Gaffer

       Production Manager

       Production Assistant

       Technical director

       Director

       Video Tape Operator  (VT)

       Vision Mixer

       Boom operator

       Camera Operator/Cinematographer/Videographer

       Floor Manager

       Graphics Coordinator

After my production team and I assigned each other individual roles,we carefully planned out:

-The layout of the stage 

- The audiences seats

-Where the cameras would go to capture the best shots and remain hidden from each other at the same time 

-The layout of the stage 

- The audiences’ seats

-Where the cameras would go to capture the best shots and remain hidden from each other at the same time

Because of our cautious preparation and commitment to our roles Havering Asks was amazingly successful.

Talk shows and Comedy chat shows

Multiple-camera shooting is the only way that an ensemble of actors/performers presenting a single performance before a live audience may be recorded from multiple perspectives.

Talk shows 

Talk shows use multi-camera techniques just like high-output soaps because it is a good way to shows the action/ reaction to the action effectively. 

The Jeremy Kyle Show is a British daytime television show presented by Jeremy Kyle.

The show has been broadcasted on ITV since July 2005. Recorded and produced each weekday by Granada Studios in Manchester city, the show has won many awards.

 The Jeremy Kyle show uses the Multi-camera technique to show: the problems of those on the show, reactions from the audience, Jeremy Kyle's opinion and behind the scenes. The Multi camera setup makes it easy to edit the footage ready for broadcasting the following week.

Comedies

Again many comedy shows use the multi camera setup to show the comedian(s) on stage and the reaction to the jokes from the audience, which creates a humorous atmosphere for viewers watching at home.

The Graham Norton show is a famous British comedy chat show broadcasted on BBC ONE in the united Kingdom. 

Graham Norton is an Irish comedian that presents a show on people, trends and stories that interest him the most.

Because the Graham Norton shows holds a large audience in the studio the multi camera technique is essential to capture all the main action on stage as well as the reactions from the audience.
