Action Plan

The following is the action plan for my project.

Firstly, I need to decide what type of show I am going to be making for my project. I already know that it's going to be fictional, but I still need to decide on a specific genre (and sub-genre) for my production.

Next, I need to do lots of research into multiple aspects of my production. These include researching the channels (ITV or Channel 5) and their scheduling, researching the audience demographic (18-35 millennials) and researching other texts pertinent to my choice of genre.

I then need to begin drafting narrative ideas/concepts, introducing characters, locations, tones, colour schemes, and more elements to my production regarding narrative, genre and mise-en-scene.These ideas I will conjure up by producing mind maps or lists of ideas until I find ones that I like.

From there, I plan to start collating my conceptual ideas into more solid stories/characters/themes/etc. that will be used in my show. This will involve, in the earlier stages, drafting my elements in brief, and continue onto further stages such as storyboarding and script writing.

By this point, I hope also to have begun considering the print section of my project. This will itself involve researching other print articles of a similar format, as well as researching things such as which mode of address to use and which aesthetic choices to make. I also hope at this stage to begin planning the contents/style of my print article, but I will need to focus on the actual production of the AV elements as well, and I'm not quite sure how it will all balance out. I'll cross that bridge when I get to it, I think.

The next step for me will be to begin production on my AV element. I will have already needed to have planned the scheduling for my use of the college equipment and made sure that all of the elements I require (eg. locations, actors, etc.) are available at the times at which I choose to produce.

Following this, I will edit and post-produce the AV element, and also create the print section of my project, making sure to get feedback on both aforementioned elements. Here, I will also self-assess and evaluate my work, leading me to the end of my project.
