Group 5 presents
Putting the presentation together has been another hurdle. There are still slight traces of the concept content dichotomy.
Today we arrived to make our rehearsed presentation to the group. For me we had finally become a dynamic team. Everyone had the same aims and goals for the day and without conferring had all worn the same colour clothes. Spooky!
Transmedia storytelling is knowing your message, knowing your audience, knowing your media methods and knowing how to work all of these things together.
To bring the concept www.theartcircles.com alive further and make the experience immersive for our audience I even arranged a surprise guest appearance by our art critic.
The final countdown
The products need to be handed in on Tuesday. All the research elements have come together. I think that the jigsaw finally fits together.
Back to the radio studio
Since there is no time to brief a voiceover artist I have taken this role. Actually I’ve loved it.
Working again in team in the studio has been fun. One of the directors Christina is also trained as an actress, so I’ve been coached through the process. My intonation checked, my delivery encouraged.
Now it’s hand over to the editors to work their magic. And if Moby says yes we will have a Moby soundtrack!
QR codes: the latest in treasure hunting
Lights, camera and action. Well we’ve got a website that’s great, we’ve got audio, we’ve got social media and we’ve got QR codes which are all the rage. Our 30+ demographic like their mobile phones and smartphones seem to be making the world go around.
We’re going to bring our arts content to life by QR code interactivity. If it’s good enough for CSI, then it’s good enough for Arts Circles. We’re going to be putting art on the map! Simples.
An art critic is born!
It’s fun giving birth to a character. Script written and my fellow radio producer is game to get going on the production. Actor sourced and he loves the script. Brilliant.
Spent time in the recording studio this evening and it was creative chemistry. The actor brought suitable attire and we watched as Anthony Richmond-Turner stepped off the page and into our ears. I love this kind of collaboration. All the skills coming together to make the whole. I’ll upload the results once they’ve been through the editing and production machine.
Process v product
This MA is really bringing to the surface that life is about process and somehow we’ve made it about product. Scriptwriting is all about getting the seed of an idea and then having the courage to let it grow. The best results are when people bring their ideas freely in the growing process and together an idea is birthed. Watch this space for ideas development.
