'As Live' Studio Production: Promos research

With the ideas that we have decided to carry out, we have all gone away to research potential locations that we could use to film them, along with possibly using some actors. 

With the group favourite idea of having a man steal a mannequin from a shop window, then wear the clothes while walking down the high street with flashes of a catwalk, I went to have a look at some local locations, and found some that were very good. 

One of these locations was the mens shop 'Burtons'. I chose to reccy this location due to it fitting well with the story that we want to convey to the audience. I had a talk with the manager about filming in the shop, but he said that he would have to check with his bosses, so i gave him my details, but have not heard back from him yet

I needed to try ad secure a back-up location in case 'Burtons' failed to deliver, so I knew of another shop a bit further down the high street called 'Empire', which is a shop that also sells quite a lot of male clothes. I went into the shop and asked the member of staff if it was possible to do some filming in the shop. He said that he would have to ask his brother, who was the manager of the shop, so I gave him my details and am still waiting to hear back from him

After this, I went into some charity shops to see if they had any spare mannequins, as we needed to try and secure one for the skit. However, all of the shops said that they did not have any male mannequins free.

This was the idea that I thought of. A chat show, but the guests do activities, similar to graham norton or Ellen degeners  First half could be getting to know the guests, some stories that they have ( either embarrassing or saucy etc ) Have some general chat between the guests, of which there are two or three. Not as scripted as it needs to feel like a natural conversation  Second half is the guests doing some activities, such as CAH, or similar to Norman VT from last years project. Have two or three different activities  End with scores, winner gets a prize, loser(s) have to do a forfeit. My partner had the idea to have a talent show for the disabled, so we decided to combine the two and have a chat show that focuses on the mentally or physically disabled, and ...
