Comission.


Emma Wescott:

  • “Broad, robust documentary series for 9pm with clear irresistible proposition and intelligence at its heart, e.g. Shoplifters and Proud, Store Detectives.
  • Returnable 8pm series, some access or lightly formatted in broad subject areas that reflect who we are and how we live, e.g. Cowboy Builders, Gibraltar: Britain in the Sun, The Railway: First Great Western, Benidorm ER.
  • 10pm entertaining documentary series or one-offs, e.g. Hens Behaving Badly.
  • Schedule stunts with fast turnaround news documentaries, e.g. Philpott Housefire, The Ohio Slave Girls.”

This is research from the Channel 5 website and their commissions. I have chosen this commissioner as I feel as though I can pitch my idea to her and merge it to her criteria well, I feel as though I can fit it into either the 9pm or 10pm slots due to the context of my idea. I would say my show would have to be a later viewing as it's quite a strong topic, drugs and rave scenes, which wouldn't be suitable for younger viewers.
My idea for the show would merge well along the likes of "shoplifters and proud" as in both of them it is exposing brits and showing the harsh reality of what some of Britain is really like.

There will also be a series of 3-4 interviews. the majority of camera work will be a standard format focusing on the presenter following him around, however the camera will be used in various ways to give a sense of location and setting, a range of shots including close ups, and medium close ups to focus on people within the documentary and props used. I will construct representations of individuals and a select group of the British youth through specific choice of costumes...
