'As live' Studio Production: Rehearsal day 2


We had another rehearsal day on Tuesday, which went very well. We had the talk back system again, plus we had a script this time, so we could get more of an idea of how the actual show is going to be set out. We made a mock set with tape on the floor and a seating area in a similar style that it will be in the show. We set up the cameras that we are going to be using, with two of them being on wheels for easy movement. 

We had some trouble at the beginning due to a couple of the cameras not producing a picture in the gallery, but that was rectified. It turns out there was a problem with the cables connecting the camera to the gallery. 

We had numerous run-throughs of parts of the show so that we could get a feeling of where our cameras would have to be, however this was difficult as we found that we were constantly forgetting about the audience seats. We tried to get around this problem by setting up some chairs and having people sit in them for a bit, which helped very much.

Documentary unit: Jackie interview

So we could get an outside view on fake fear, we were able to secure an interview with an actual adrenaline junkie, only thing was, she's 73! She was amazing to interview, and her answers were so descriptive, which gave us some area to play around with during the edit. We needed to rearrange the house to better suit an interview, and when we realised that we would have to do that, we were glad that we were filming in one of our own homes instead of Jackie's house, or in a public area, as we then had control over the whole environment. Jackie was a pleasure to interview, as she was very relaxed and had a great sense of humour to match.
