Thoughts..


I thought I would produce a second script, as a back up. As my role is camera women, I feel that my input into the pre production is a little weak. This is why I have took it upon myself to produce scripts and a logo for the program. 

I have designed a logo which I have named student seconds, as this is a quick cookery show aimed at students. I didn't want to over complicate the logo as we will be using it on our film. As we are doing a program which will be aired on E4, I have kept the purple colour theme to reinforce this factor. I felt typography wasn't exciting enough so I wanted to remind the viewer that it was a cookery show so I added a old fashioned egg timer. I feel this brings the composition together nicely. I will be showing this to the rest of my group to see what they think of it. 

The script I've produced is light and humorous is some parts. My original thought of this program when we come up with the idea was light, airy and simple as I wanted to make it clear to all kinds of viewers. As a group we all discussed that we would do a pasta dish and this is popular along students. I have asked friends and family if they feel the same and they all agreed. I decided to use a recipe that I eat regularly, which is a tuna pasta bake. I chose this one as all the ingredients are cheap to buy and will last for a long time in your cupboard. The list includes pasta, onion, tomatoes, sweetcorn, tuna and cheese. I went shopping the other day and I added the price of all these ingredients and it came to roughly four pound. This is reasonable for a student budget. Another reason for picking this recipe is that its quick and healthy. The perfect match for a lazy student. 

My only issue when producing the script is the time length as I don't want the film to be too short, however I reverted to looking at the cooking shows I had previously watched and there was a lot of shots of the food itself. So this element should bulk up our list of shots and time.
