PROBLEMS

When filming Runi in G13 as the news presenter we wanted to have the feature of her sitting at a desk. The desk we planned to use was too low and did not appear in the shot so we had to figure out another way of filming her sat at a table.



Things went from bad to worse; we had 6 or 7 chairs stacked up on top of each other with Lauren underneath the desk holding it up in the shot while I sorted out the camera and slide show. This was quite time consuming figuring out how we were going to sort the problem but eventually we got it filmed.




















Here are some images of the chaos caused.

PROBLEM
Another problem that we had was that the news programme was too short. As the brief required the programme to be 5 minutes long we were just under 30 seconds short. We decided that we would do an interview with a 'troubled neighbour' discussing her run ins with ASBO.

Construction of the website

In constructing the website this properties tool bar was the main tool bar which was used. The tool bar allowed me to:

-Edit fonts

-Edit colour schemes/produce colour schemes

-Create internal and external links

-Change background colours

-Change border sizes

-Change images and video sizes

-Change the alignment of the content in the cells.

To enter images and videos I used the insert drop down menu on the Dreamweaver tool bar. Selecting image to insert various images and media, along to plug in to insert videos.

Once the plug in option is selected a new screen appears asking for the media to be selected. Then once it was placed in Dreamweaver I used the properties tool bar to edit the video.

Once the image option is selected a new screen appears asking for the image to be selected. Then once it was placed in Dreamweaver I used the properties tool bar to edit the image.

The print screens above show the completed pages produced in Dreamweaver.

Target Audience

Getting news in one form or another remains a daily habit for the vast majority. On any given day, around 8 in 10 people report seeing, reading or listening to some kind of news. TV news remains the most widely used source. On any given day, 57% of people in the UK watch news on TV, a rate that has remained the same over the past 10 years.

TV news viewers spend much more time getting the news they want than do those who get news on the radio, newspapers and the Internet. Users of other media types spend far less time, on average, with that media source than do TV news viewers. Those who say they listened to radio news spent an average of 39 minutes re41 minutes, newspaper readers spent adding the paper. Online news users spent an average 35 minutes getting the news from the web.

Age is an even bigger factor when it comes to watching TV news and reading a daily newspaper. Only a third of those younger than 25 watch any TV news. Even those who are slightly older are much more likely to say they watch TV news on a typical day.

The total time that people spend with the news is largely unchanged from a decade ago.There is a consistently large gap in the time spent on the news by age. People who are younger than 30 spend just 46 minutes with the news on a typical day, comparing to 63 minutes on average among people in their 30s, and higher averages for the older age groups.

This age gap is based on the fact that younger people are much less likely to watch television news on a typical day. However, even when younger people do get the news they spend less time with these sources than do older people. Overall, those younger than 30 who get news on a typical day spend 65 minutes with the news on average. This is a substantial difference than the average for older news consumers.

TARGET GROUP OVER 30's

Filming the interviews

Today we went and filmed the youth worker and the PC. We got several different shots which we are now going to add to Premiere to cut down the clips. Some of the content mentioned by the interviewees was of good quality however at times there were a lot of 'erms' which need to be cut out. As all together the interviews combined time is over 5 minutes so we need to cut the clips down that we are going to use and see which clips look most effective.

Todays Filming Session

In today's filming session we went and filmed Bexleyheath clock tower which was SE1's 'Big Ben'. Some of the clip is not of very good quality but we decided that we would cut those parts out in Premiere. After doing some initial research here is the clip we got the idea of combining a clock in our title sequence from. I liked how we are provided with an overview of London, not seen before by many and then we come to focus on Big Ben symbolising the start of the News at 10.
