Wednesday 17th December;

For our four lessons today we gave out our channel pitch to the rest of the group to be assessed. The pitch was to give our plan on what channel to broadcast our soap on. (Channel 4) What time to broadcast and scheduling plans. I thought the pitch went very well and we made some valid points to like with research and our target audience.
We also carried on writing our script and bring all the ideas together. We got this done very quickly to my surprise and i think the typed up final script works very well with the limted amout of time of two minutes to open our soap opera.
After the holidays we plan to start filming our soap and bringing all our ideas together finally to create our soap as best as we can...

Friday 5th December;

In the lesson today we researched the scheduling of programmes for each five terrestrial channels, BBC1, BBC2, ITV1, Channel 4 and Channel 5. By doing this it will help me to decide what channel and what time to broadcast my soap opera to recieve the largest audience. I then need to finish this off by next lesson.

Thursday 4th December;

In the single lesson we had today i helped with the process of completing our presentation for Mondays lesson. We had alot of trouble trying to decide on what to include in our title sequence as we hadnt really thought about it yet but we decided in the end to create it some what like the Hollyoaks title sequence, which would appeal to our young audience. We then moved onto what we would present about our soap opera.

Wednesday 3rd December;

Today we have been very productive which has been very useful. We have completed our storylines and character profiles, but we still need to get the people to be the characters so we can get the pictures for the profiles. It think today has been very successful and plan to start the script by friday. We have to pitch our ideas for the soap on monday so i think we will be concentrating on that powerpoint for quite a while.

Monday 1st December;

Today we have discussed how far we have come from the start of pre-production. We then moved onto finalizing our storylines ideas and creating our character profiles which was quite hard as we had to try and make sure all our characters were stereotypical and worked with the other characters. I hope to have these character profiles done by wednesday so we can move onto the next project...
