Assignment 3 – ‘Live Talk/Panel show’ (Pre-Production)

For our group, we all discussed we were going to do a “Q and A” type of show. And the theme we wanted to put out was the topic of memes, as it is a popular and modern thing to talk about. We divided our roles according to what we haven’t done before, so we all did something else. I went from being Director in the last production to the Camera in this production. As we decided our goal and ideas, we went on with preparations. Being the only person who was assigned to camera at the time, I worked with the producer and writer to get an idea of what vision they wanted at the time. Because we wanted to have an audience member participate, we needed one camera to move from the normal static shot of one of the hosts to audience back to the host. I volunteered to take the role, being the only one there with an idea what what the producer wanted and also having experience on camera before. During pre-production, I also helped with the producer in deciding the layout of the set and suggesting where the audience member is going to be, to get the best kind of shot from. I also had my say it what memes we should be using and in the end the team went with my idea for the final name of the Q and A show we were doing, which was “Dank Q & A”.
