Intro

Throughout the course of the next few months I will be documenting my progression of my end of year graduate project piece throughout this blog. This week I began my advanced specialist skills seminars, which I came to with my negotiated learning agreement as the basis for my plan. The outline of my project is to create a travel style TV pilot that would air on either channel 4 or the travel channel. It will focus on the British coast looking at individual places history and lifestyle and will be targeted at an older audience.  The focal area that my pilot will be filmed in will be Cornwall as I feel that this has a vast and interesting heritage and is somewhere I have connections allowing me to operate more efficiently. I knew that in order to prepare for filming there were several key things I would need to address first;

-       Find key locations in Cornwall to feature show around

-       Organize the filming schedule and dates of filming

-       Script the necessary scenes within the show

-        Scout out areas to film

-       Arrange any required props

One thing that I already had was someone cast for the part who I felt was young enough to bring an excitable vibe to the show but also well spoken and presented that I believed the target audience would find endearing. This person is Harry Walker. I have already done interviews and spoke to him about the work prior to the start of this blog. I believe that he is a viable strong personality who fits my criteria and will allow for a greater depth to the show. In the week to come I plan to start structuring the script and find potential locations for filming.
