Week 1My Show’s Treatment

SUMMARY OF SHOW

My Show is called “Every Little Counts” as it’s a game show where every point matters. It’s a show targeted at the youth ages between 13-17, each week children have a chance to battle it out against some of the world’s most popular celebrities. There will be 5 rounds where if you win then you are a step closer to be in the rapid fire round and if you lose you will suffer the consequences (e.g. Points taken off etc.)

TEAMS, ROUNDS & PRIZES

The 2 celebrities and 4 chosen child contestants will mix into teams. In the first round points are worth 5 points, second round 10 and third 15. The team who are winning by the third round will go into the fourth and the two children will battle it out and are a step closer towards the rapid fire round. The team that didn’t manage to get to the fourth round will sadly go home but not empty handed as they will win prizes for participating in the quiz but they will be inferior prizes compared to the two remaining contestants. In the fourth round points will be 50 each, the child that loses will have to leave the quiz but with superior prizes compared to the children that left in the third round. The winning contestant will proceed to the rapid fire round where he has 1 minute to answer 10 questions. At the 30 second mark the last contestant is given a deal which he can accept or decline (for e.g. The child is at 6 points “I will give you 2 extra points in exchange of 15 seconds of your remaining time leaving you with 15 seconds to answer two questions correctly”). If the child gets all the questions right he will get the grand prize such as a PSP or XBOX but if he loses he will get

the same prize as the contestant to lost in the fourth round.

TIMING

The first, second and third round are 5 minutes each, the fourth round is 3 minutes and the rapid fire round is 1 minute as the remaining child has to answer 10 questions in a limited amount of time. The award ceremony will be 2 minutes and the time in-between will be the presenters explaining the topic , rules introducing the contestants and making jokes to make this quiz entertaining.

A Profile For One of My Viewers

Week 3Bus AdvertisementI would show it couple weeks prior to show coming on air. Shown regularly along busy bus routes as will catch a lot of attention

BillboardsI would show it couple weeks prior to show coming on air and stop the advertisement after the first 3 episodes. It will be shown in busy area’s such as central London near theatre’s as they have big and eye catching billboards.

TV AdvertisementI would show it couple weeks prior to show coming on air and stop the advertisement after the first 6 episodes. It will be shown regularly on children’s channels as it will catch the eye of our target audience and we will be around 30 seconds as I don’t want it to be to long.

Radio AdvertisementI would advertise this show on the radio stations which regularly have advertisement such as Capital but after the show has got quite a bit of publicity I will stop it and put more money on to other main sources of advertisement

Newspaper AdvertisementI would advertise it in popular newspapers such as The Sun, News Of The World and I will pay for them regularly so people can see it and take a interest in the show and show their children.

Week 5ANALYSIS ON HOW I CONSTRUCTED THE TITLE SEQUENCE

I constructed my title sequence in this way as I wanted it to consist of most of the elements of my quiz show. My font is informal as it’s aimed at teenagers and I wanted it to look unique and fun compared to other quiz shows as they’re my main contenders, the text is rather feminine, it’s sans serif and curved which helped it create a informal feel. I also included the celebrities Rihanna and Ne-Yo as these are the type of celebrities coming on to this show and are helping the children on there team to win the grand prize, they are both waving as a way to represent when they are being called on stage and wave at the audience. I included the presenter Kevin Hart as you need to know who the presenter is going to be on a quiz show as he opens and closes the show and makes it entertaining throughout the quiz by what he does, it helps you to get a sense of what type of show it is as if it’s a stereotypical old man as a presenter. You would see it as being a formal show and for a older target audience it helps he’s a comedian as you know from the minute you see him the show is going to be interesting and amusing.

I included the children as it’s a live show and there will be crowds cheering on the contestants, it also gives it a competitive feel as if your on stage you don’t want to let the audience and yourself down. I also used a teenager in the top right as he will be type of contestants in the quiz (teenagers) which links to the top right as there are two contestants battling it out to win the prize on this game show. I constructed it in this way as it involved the main elements I want to get across in my game show once in a life time opportunity, celebrities, competitive, fun , entertaining and nerve racking.
