Modes of Address

Mode Of Address:
We went with informal mode of address due to our target audience this is because nowadays people speak in slang but we ensured that we didnt but in a way teenagers will find it normal to listen to. Also we didnt go with formal because our target audience would find it abnormal to see a magazine show having a formal mode of address. Also as me and my partner Jada researched the Magazine Shows we figured it would be better to keep it a bit stereotypical and do informal because it is more fun to listen to and people can relate themselves to that.
Gestures:
As the Magazine show has to be energetic we ensured our hand gestures were correlating with it such as at the very start of the show when me and Jada are walking into the set we need to set an energetic standard for the audience so they are all pumped and ready to watch the show itself. This meant we needed strong hand gestures to match with our tone of voice. Something that we would possibl usew will be th waving hand gesture when we end of the show for the audience - (WAVING SAYING BYE) <-- These type of hand gestures will come in handy otherwise it will be plain and boring.

Production Reflection Meeting 3 / Own Role Production 3
This week I managed to get my costume sorted for the Live Day Preparation. This meant I can upload images to my blog and annotate them so I can tell why I had chosen to wear the costume rather than wearing the other. This week I also took pictures with the costumes I have chosen to see how they actually looked in the lighting itself. It came to conclusion that I had to wear clothing that was light coloured. This was because they colours that were light made it more visible to see through the camera itself and there were no problems in seeing everything in the set. The colours of the lights we all agreed to was 2 oranges along with a purple filtered light which matched our background that the graphics designer created. I was working with my CO-Presenter Jada and the lighting Desk Ravinder to get some work done in preparation for the Live Day itself.
This week I also worked with the lighting department (ravinder) so I could get my costume pictures taken. We booked out 2 periods on Friday so we can get this done so I could get the costume ideas sorted out. By working with the Lighting Desk I managed to get my part of the work done and it saved time because the lighting manager knew how to set it up. This saved us a lot of time because if we did not know how to do it, it would have taken us twice as long to get help form a teacher so there was a major upside to the picture taking. We also used the colour scheme which we are using for the Live Day which Jasmeet and the Lighting Desk aggreed on so we get a better look at how the costumes look in the light that has been put up.
All the images were taken straight on so it showed any shadows which we can tell the director what to do, whether to add more lights or change the filters that we used. If I was to change anything I would actually add more costume ideas which I will be doing so I have a variety to work with.
This week I will head in the direction in completing this part of my blog and start to memorise the script so I can get an understanding of what I will be saying on the day of the live show. Also I will be working with Jada so we can work together to memorise the script and act out what we will be doing and saying. Also we will be rehearsing on Tuesday to get any new ideas and remove anything that dies not look good.

Presenters - Costumes & Hair
Costumes, Hair & Make-Up:
For this part of my Preparation for the
Live Day which was thinking about the costume Ideas which I would implement.I
had to think about Hairstyles and costumes I could be wearing. As a boy the
make-up section would not work with me but would work for Jada as she is a girl
and she is the presenter. For the first part of the Preparation for the whole
Live Day/Show I had to create a mood board which would show what types of
clothes I could be wearing throughout the show itself. I aimed myself to do a
more causal clothing not something like a T-Shirt and Trousers but something in
the lines of a Polo Shirt, Trench Coat, Black/Blue Jeans & Trainers either
being High or Low Tops.
Also during this part of the preparation I
had to think about the Hair Style I could be doing to match my costume or in
general. This would have a clear visualization of what looks god and what
doesn't look good. Also when thinking about this I needed to think of the Mood
of the show, My characteristics I’ll be playing and the lighting of the set
itself. By having light clothing I can ensure that as A presenter I am visible
to the cameras and it does not destroy the aesthetic view of the show itself.
On the other hand if I was to wear dark clothing I think the cameras would find
it harder to capture my facial expressions and it will look grainy because the
lighting is quite dark. Also by the mood I mean if the person was lively I think
the hairstyle would be more cool and funky or if the person had a deep tone
voice they're hairstyle would be completely different. I think the hairstyle
would show how the characteristics of the person would be portrayed therefore
making it a major part of designing my costume that I would be wearing for the
Live Day itself.
As we are doing a Music Show and we are
having celebrities on the show I think I should wear something smart and more
appealing to teenagers; which brings me onto my next point I need to dress
appropriately to the target audience of the show which is teenagers. If I was
to wear a T-Shirt which had an in-appropriate image or word I think it would
break the watershed rule and would not appeal to the Target audience of the
Show itself. I think this is another major sector of the preparation I need to
be looking at during this section because I do not want to be breaking any
rules or anything that would set back the show itself. Also i can delay time
for having rehearsals because it will not be as appropriate. So therefore I
will not be heading towards the direction which will have words written on the
T-Shirt.
Also for this Friday which is the 13th I
will be going with the Lighting Desk (Arjan) to get some pictures of my
costumes that I could be wearing for the Live Day itself. These costumes will
decided which ones look good in the Lighting and what does not look good with
the lighting. I was aiming to wear clothes that are pretty light such as white
which is a Neutral colour. Also I will not be wearing a black top, Jacket due
to the fact that the Lights get very hot and it can be uncomfortable when
talking for 30 Minutes lives. For the lighting we went with 2 Orange Filters
with a blend of a Light with a purple filter which came out very well. Also
this matched our colour scheme for the logo that was created by the Graphics
Designer. As the lighting is Quite dark as mentioned above dark clothing will
not be worn which will make the cameras produce a grainy flicker when played
back. We aim to keep the presenters as if they were up to date with fashion and
they know what the latest trend in clothing is. Also as we have another presenter
we had a chat about wearing clothes that would match when we were next to each other.
For example if I wore jeans, t-shirt and Jacket she would wear something that
makes it match to an extent. Not colour wise but dress sense wise. Below you will find some costume ideas that I have come up with, these are taken with the lighting focused on me to see whether the costume looks good or not.
Also you can see that below the waist is all black. I have tried to keep it more clean and smart along with a suede type shoe which will work with any type of trousers or jeans. Also they will work with chinos but I think a different colour shoes would work something such as white. I think White puma suede will work with chinos. This will be seen with my 2nd costume Idea which I can be wearing. Also I have gone with a watch which is also black so it match whatever I am wearing for the live day itself. As I have tested costume Ideas with the lighting desk I think that light colours for the shirt would work very well and will not affect the way we are shown via the cameras.
Here I went out with the Lighting Desk to get some insight on how the costume would look with the colours I have chosen for the day and here are the images below of how they looked like in the light we had chosen and approved by the Director herself. These images will show a full preview of how the costume will be looking in the purple and orange light and how we can alter it if there were seeing issues on the set via the cameras.
Here we got a chair to sit me down just to re-create how it would look like when I am actually presenting the show because we will be sat down most of the time during the show.
I stood up for this picture because I wanted the light directly to hit on the costume to see how it looked like and the colour were almost perfect to see in the lighting setup we actually had which was very good and I was very happy with the outcome as I thought it was going to be more darker where I will need to change around the costume ideas.
Again I used a different top to see how it would look like if I were to be presenting with the same top for the day and this one also came out particularly well and I was very impressed with the outcomes of the costume which meant I could possibly wear anything light blue or white which would make it stand out on the day.
These Nike Shoes were suprising visible because it was a light grey type colour along with the suede.
These Nike trainers were fully black but still visible on the camera with the Lighting which was amazing because this meant any shoe could be visible in the Light without it being hard to see what colour it was.
These Puma shoes were easily visible aswell which meant I had a nice variety of shoes to wear. During this time period I went out and bought a pair of Nike Blazers which I will be wearing for the day and they were Light Grey so I knew it was going to be properly visible on the cameras.

Dialogue Script
I have been This week I will be working with my Partner Jada to create the script so we can have a clear understanding of what will be going on during the Show itself. The script will ensure what we will be saying and what the response we will be receiving from the audience itself. Also were told by our teacher to include Banter and Jokes and to make it a bit informal. Me and Jada will need to include all the details that we will be including in the script as it Faraha's Montage, Prabhjyot's Graphics ect. These will be indicated in bold so when we give it to the director it will be clear on what is happening during the show itself.
What i need to ensure while creating the script:
- Abide by the Running Order
- Include Banter / Jokes
- Be somewhat informal so it flows better (Relates to Teenagers)
- Make sure VT Operator parts / graphics / Montages are in Bold
- Also make the important parts in Bold and Centred to the Page
- Make sure I am using size 14 Font on Microsoft Office
- Also make sure that the script is Minimum 4 Pages (Could be longer depending on the detail of the script itself)
Here is the finished Dialogue Script :

Production Reflection Meeting 2 / Own Role Production 2
This week I had to carry on with the script with my partner Jada. We had to get a dialogue script done for the Live day itself in order to memorise / get a brief idea on what questions we would be asking. I was told that we needed to include where the graphics / overlays come into place during the course of the Live Show. In order to do that we had to abide by the running order which Me, Ellie & Jasmeet created. This week we completed the script itself which meant we got the heavy work off our shoulders and we could focus on acting our roles and memorising the questions we will be asking.
This week we managed to complete the dialogue script which meant we can proceed onto other duties we can work on. Also As I had worked with the director (jasmeet) it ensured I did not have anything that she was unhappy with. We spent a whole lesson on working on the script and around 3/4 of it was completed to an extent of detail. Jasmeet was happy with this so we gave it to Jada to finish off and add / remove things that were not really needed in the Script itself. After that was done me and Jada set off to start to learn and memorise our lines for the show itself so we had some extra preparation. Me and Jada as presenters communicated with each other over E-Mail & Instant Messaging so we could get the work done within the week and we did which was a major success regarding my own role.
The things we may need to change is the questions in the script because the questions looked a bit bland and they were not as funny as we could make them. This means I need to talk with Jasmeet and Jada to make the questions a bit more humorous and engaging to the audience.
This week I will be talking with Jasmeet and Jada what we will actually do during the Live Show itself. This means we need to talk about my personality, hand gestures ect. If I get this done it means I can proceed into building my character for the Live Day itself so I am prepared and not organised or behind on anything. This means I will be ready and prepared for the character I am cueing the Live Day itself. Also I will be starting to memorise the script as a preparation for the show as we have to master it in order to be near professional standards.
