    15/37

    "Underwater Explorations" will be a weekly, 30-minute studioproduction featuring guests supplying their own video or film footage oftheir underwater exploits around the world.

    The proposed host for the show is Dr. Steve Adams, who has an

    established track record with us and WCFX-TV for doing marinespecials. Each week he will have a new guest with new experiences.

    Given the numerous people within our seacoast broadcast area whoregularly document their diving expeditions, we will have no troublefinding guests with exciting footage and stories to tell. In particular wewant to feature in-studio close-ups of artifacts that have been salvagedduring underwater expeditions.

    Initially, two guests who have documented the discovery of sunkenships are interested in appearing. In addition, we want to featureexperts in marine life from the local university who have dramatic andcolorful digital footage of a wide variety of underwater life forms.

    Dave's Dive Shop and Marty's Marine Supply have tentativelycommitted as sponsors. Numerous other potential sponsors also existwithin our broadcast area.

    Production costs would be minimal. The production could be done "live-on-tape" on Wednesday evenings in Studio B with three cameras one typically reserved for tabletop close-ups of exhibits. Dr. Adams

    indicates he would be willing to host/produce the show for $950 perprogram. Our initial contract with Dr. Adams would be for 13 shows.

    Although the guests would appear without compensation, the potentialsponsors have indicated that they would give the guests gifts inexchange for on-air acknowledgments.

    The Sunday afternoon broadcast time slot now occupied by What In theWorld?, (which concludes April 2nd,) seems most appropriate, althoughthe final decision on this would be up to Programming.

    Initially, the show would be done in three blocks:

    Block #1 - Introduction of the guest; overview of the day's topic with abrief look at footage and exhibits. (about 7 min.)

    Commercial break.

    Block #2 - Discussion of the topic, primarily VO [voice over]concentrating on underwater footage and in-studio close-ups ofartifacts.

    Commercial break.

  • 7/31/2019 Good News From Bogota Template

    16/37

    Block #3 - Discussion and conclusion, again primarily VOconcentrating on underwater footage and in-studio close-ups ofartifacts.

    As commercial support increased we would have the option of

    going to four blocks separated by three commercial breaks.

    Dr. Adams has already been contacted by WCFX-TV about doinganother special for them. If he hosted "Underwater Explorations," wewould obviously prefer him to be under exclusive contract with us forthe duration of the series. He has agreed to wait 30-days for ourdecision on "Underwater Explorations."

    What will the television show be?

    About underwater exploits around the world.

    What will they call it?

    Underwater Explorations

    How often will it air?

    One time per week (weekly)

    What roles will they need to fill in order to produce the show?

    -Host

    -Guests

    -Sponsors

    -Camera man

    What skills and knowledge will they need?

    Knowledge about the underwater experiences and the things needed also very

    good interviewing skills so the guests can express themselves with interesting

    questions from the host and this generating interest in the viewers of the show.

  • 7/31/2019 Good News From Bogota Template

    17/37

    How many blocks are they going to have? What about?

    - 3 Blocks

    - 1st block will be mainly about the presentation of the weekly guest.

    - 2nd block will be about the discussion of the weekly topic, also

    concentrating on underwater footage

    - 3rd block will talk about the final discussion and will give a conclusion also

    presentating underwater footage and in studio close up of artifacts as in

    the 2nd block.

    How long is the program going to last?

    30 minutes.

    2. After carefully reviewing the proposal guidelines, prepare your submission

    materials for mailing.

    GUIDELINES

    Please send all relevant information about each project. The following elements

    are expected:

    Key Personnel - provide detailed biographies or resume information of the key project

    staff (i.e., producer, director, writer, cinematographer, editor) as well as experts,

    A proposalconsists of a written condensation of a proposed TVproduction.

    It covers the basic ideas and issues of the production as well as the

    main characters, locations, and story angles.

    Proposals should be attention-getting and interesting to read.

    They cover the full story sequence. They typically contain some keyscenes .

    The basic production needs and approximate times of the segmentsare included.

    Anyone reading a program proposal should be able to get a clearidea of the entire production.

    This is the evaluation of my progress.

    In class, we learned:

    What is a script?

    A script is a document that outlines every aural, visual, behavioral, and lingual element

    required to film your TV news program.

    How do I make a script?

    Get yourstory straight. Come up with lots of ideas of what you want to happen in

    the TV news program. Create the premise and purpose of the TV show program.

    Your reporters anf presenters will drive the action on the stage or screen, so

    make sure you make them interesting and innovative.

    Create an outline or treatment. Before you begin actually writing dialogue and

    script, it might help to create a basic roadmap of what will happen in your TV news

    program so you dont forget. Sketch out a general plan and envision how the news will

    unfold. This should be told in the third-person.

    Maintain your style. Remember, scripts are all about action and dialogue. Make

    sure your characters speak realistically, and try not to mix styles of speech and

    vocabulary too much unless you are going for a certain effect.

    Ensure that different reporters anf presenters have their own 'voice' based

    on their background, which will affect their word choices and dialect. This will

    stop your characters from blending into one another.

    Set the news. Don't forget to include important details such as time of day, setting,

    and actions of the reporters and presenters in the scene. These are nearly as

    important as the news that occurs.

    Format your writing. Skip lines between one character speaking and a different

    one speaking, especially if you're handwriting it. This will enable those reading the

    script to distinguish between speakers more easily, and also allow space for notes.

    Edit yourself. Continually revise your writing, and, if possible, show the script to a

    friend or adviser who has writing experience and can critique and improve the script as

    needed. You may also write your script in various ways, introducing people and even in

    brackets telling the reader what is happening that the narrator is not reading. I.E.) jeff

    walks off the stage or john closes the door behind him.

    Once your script is written , the next step is to make a storyboard. Astoryboard visually tells the TV news program panel by panel, kind oflike a comic book.

    Your storyboard will should convey some of the following information:

    What charaters are in the frame, and how are they moving? What are the characters saying to each other, if anything? How much time has passed between the last frame of the

    storyboard and the current one? Where the "camera" is in the scene? Close or far away? Is the

    camera moving?

    Why make a storyboard?

    Creating a storyboard will help you plan your TV news program outshot by shot. You can make changes to your storyboard before youstart shooting, instead of changing your mind later. You will also beable to talk about your animation and show your storyboard to otherpeople to get feedback on your ideas.

    How do I make a storyboard?

    Most commonly, storyboards are drawn in pen or pencil. If you don'tlike to draw you can also take photos, cut out pictures from magazines,or use a computer to make your storyboards. Keep in mind that yourdrawings don't have to be fancy! In fact, you want to spend just a fewminutes drawing each frame. Use basic shapes, stick figures, andsimple backgrounds. If you draw your storyboard frames on indexcards, you can rearrange them to move parts of the the story around.

    Storyboard Language

    CLOSE-UP SHOT: A close range of distance between the camera andthe subject.DISSOVLE: A transition between two shots, where one shot fades awayand simultaneously another shot fades in.FADE - A transition from a shot to black where the image graduallybecomes darker is a Fade Out; or from black where the imagegradually becomes brighter is a Fade In.HIGH CAMERA ANGLE: A camera angle which looks down on its subjectmaking it look small, weak or unimportant.JUMP CUT: A rapid, jerky transition from one frame to the next, eitherdisrupting the flow of time or movement within a scene or making an

  • 7/31/2019 Good News From Bogota Template

    32/37

    abrupt transition from one scene to another.LEVEL CAMERA ANGLE: A camera angle which is even with the subject;it may be used as a neutral shot.LONG SHOT: A long range of distance between the camera and thesubject, often providing a broader range of the setting.

    LOW CAMERA ANGLE: A camera angle which looks up at its subject; itmakes the subject seem important and powerful.PAN: A steady, sweeping movement from one point in a scene toanother.POV (point of view shot): A shot which is understood to be seen fromthe point of view of a character within the scene.REACTION SHOT- 1.: A shot of someone looking off screen. 2.: Areaction shot can also be a shot of someone in a conversation wherethey are not given a line of dialogue but are just listening to the otherperson speak.TILT: Using a camera on a tripod, the camera moves up or down tofollow the action.ZOOM: Use of the camera lens to move closely towards the subject.
