So the studio last week was the initial start up of our final projects. Our project Blood Donation made it into the top stories which will be covered in the segment, the other ones that made it was Special Religious Education and War on Porn. We also discussed possibly included MS paint also. We were also given our production roles, I am part of the Marketing team aswell as the set, props, makeup, hair, costume team. The class consisted of a discussion of back and forth discussion of possibilities and excitement towards this final project. We were also visited by a guest speaker Matt Parkinson who has worked on the Chase, Full Frontal and Comedy Central. Is was interesting to see how he started off as a wannabe actor from Perth to a comedy news writer in Melbourne. He taught us three different ways in going about writing a comedy news script and told us that it takes time and determination to make it into the media world, particularly comedy.
