Going Live
For those budding TV journalists, Going Live is the ultimate springboard to super stardom and gives the opportunity to unleash their creativity.
Going Live can:
- Build relationships within the team
- Include business messages
- Be used within a training program
- Encourage creativity
- Accentuate group dynamics
Up to the minute information is flooding in for a news story and the cameras are rolling...this is the 10 o'clock news and we are going live in...three...two...one....
The group will be formed into production teams. After a short briefing they will be introduced to their production assistant who will guide them through the event, advising them on the location of resources and ensuring that the schedule is strictly adhered to. Each team must produce a news broadcast that is exactly 5 minutes long.
The teams must use their imagination to script, film and then edit the production in which they also star. Going Live is edited mainly in camera, allowing maximum filming time for the teams. Once filming is brought to a close, the production assistant prepares the broadcasts for viewing.
Going Live is a guaranteed winner, requiring strong team work and time management. Stories allocated can be fun based but we also like to encourage companies to include company issues or policies into the content. Going Live can also work well as a training program, for example groups learning certain techniques to sell a product or how to construct and conduct an interview.
Directors Cut
The Directors Cut offers the same principal as Going Live but is based around the movies.
Houston, we have a problem, the actors are demanding changes to the script, the Director is losing control and the cameras are rolling!!! Go ahead, make my day!!!!!
Each team must produce a cut down version of a famous movie. Teams will be given an outline of the movie and a selection of scenes that should be included. It is then up to each team to produce a new version of the classic cinema production. The teams will be able to choose from several film genres and the movies must include every team member, the theme music (provided by us) and all the relevent famous quotes.
Productions can be shown immediately after edititing or during dinner if your event includes an overnight stay.
