DESCRIPTION:
Students may produce
a TV news programme, concentrating in the kind of stories and features which they feel are missing from
existing programmes. These stories must catch the watchers attention showing the positive face of our own city and
school in addition they will contribute
to create a better society.
This project offers a scope to students with
different kind of talents: in addition to investigating, there will be
opportunities for individuals to work on design, photography, illustration,
music, writing and performing. Students will be encouraged to concentrate on the quality of what they produce rather
than mere quantity.
If this first
broadcast is a success, it may be worth to produce it every term.
OBJECTIVE(S):
The main objective of this project is
to give students essential tools to see their city and school as a good
place and to create a culture that values
social and emotional well being; in addition, students will take investigating as an interactive and
entertaining process, involving knowledge of the world and various types of
learning styles, any of which may interact with any other to contribute to
produce a TV news programme consisting of general interest features
rather than current news stories.
To critically analyze Bogotá’s conflicts
and try to find out possible solutions.
To discuss, accept and respect different
points of view
To cooperate and work together in a
task.
To produce a program that reflected the interests, talents, and creativity
of the students.
DRIVING QUESTION:
Can I create a desire in my community to take some
action?
Is our society dying?
What can we do to improve our society?
What kind of issues or problematic situations can we
face when creating a TV news program?
PROCEDURE OR METHODOLOGY:
The
comprehensible input (TV news programs) and the task-based learning
(Students TV news program) will teach the learner to do something in the target
language. Sts will use language above
the sentence level, with real language in real situations and pay attention to
both the part and the whole work in the context.
At the beginning of the term, an orientation session
will be held at which students will be told that they are going to be in charge of
the design and production of a TV news program. They will asked a series of
questions so that they can brainstorm about this project.( What will the
television show be? What will we call it? How often will it air? What equipment
will we need? What roles will we need to fill in order to produce the show?
What skills and knowledge will we need? What do we know, if anything, about
television broadcasting? Can we make it whatever we want? What are our limits?) Tony Bencivenga's Blog
During the first part of the
project students will be challenged to
decide the name, tagline, content,
mission, format, set, personnel, logo, theme music, and everything else they
thought necessary to create a student-produced program.
During
the second part of the project students will discuss about the sections to be included ,the sources and think how these stories will improve and
change our society in a positive way. In addition, they will learn how to
create surveys, write interviews, news
stories and profiles. Students must critically analyze Bogotá’s conflicts and will try to find out good news that may be possible solutions for
those issues.
During this stage students will
interview, write down stories and reviews, create games and will create the
story board of the program.
In the third part of the project students will
rehearse, perform and record , after watching their product they will discuss, evaluate and decide what needs to be changed or
re-estructured in terms of sound
effects, introductory music,presenters, games , customs.
Students will record and edit the final version of
their program.
In the last part of the project students will launch the first edition of the
program.During the launching students will present the program, summarise the
course development, express their progress and feelings during the creation of
it.
MATERIAL OR RESOURCES:
-Examples of existing
TV news programs –(TV shows for
young people)
-British or American TV shows, both serious and

1. Read the
following Proposal and answer the
questions.
Sample Program Proposal
The proposed host for the show is Dr. Steve Adams, who has an established
track record with us and WCFX-TV for doing marine specials. Each week he will
have a new guest with new experiences.
Given the numerous people within our seacoast broadcast area who regularly
document their diving expeditions, we will have no trouble finding guests with
exciting footage and stories to tell. In particular we want to feature
in-studio close-ups of artifacts that have been salvaged during underwater
expeditions.
Initially, two guests who have documented the discovery of sunken ships are
interested in appearing. In addition, we want to feature experts in marine life
from the local university who have dramatic and colorful digital footage of a
wide variety of underwater life forms.
Dave's Dive Shop and Marty's Marine Supply have tentatively committed as
sponsors. Numerous other potential sponsors also exist within 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 per program.
Our initial contract with Dr. Adams would be for 13 shows.
Although the guests would appear without compensation, the potential
sponsors have indicated that they would give the guests gifts in exchange for
on-air acknowledgments.
The Sunday afternoon broadcast time slot now occupied by What In the
World?, (which concludes April 2nd,) seems most appropriate, although the
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 a brief 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 of artifacts.
Commercial break.
Block #3 - Discussion and conclusion, again primarily VO
concentrating on underwater footage and in-studio close-ups of artifacts.
Dr. Adams has already been contacted by WCFX-TV about doing another special
for them. If he hosted "Underwater Explorations," we would
obviously prefer him to be under exclusive contract with us for the duration of
the series. He has agreed to wait 30-days for our decision on
"Underwater Explorations."
What will the television show be?
Will be a weekly,
30-minute studio production featuring guests supplying their own video or film
footage of their underwater exploits around the world.
What will they call it?
Underwater Explorations
How often will it air?
Once a week
What roles will they need to fill in order to produce the show?
·
Camera
man
·
host
What skills and knowledge will they need?
In each program will be some guest which need to be experts in marine life
How many blocks are they going to have? What about?
3 blocks.
Block 1 - Introduction of the guest;
overview of the day's topic with a brief 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 of artifacts.
Commercial break.
Block 3 - Discussion and conclusion,
again primarily VO concentrating on underwater footage and in-studio close-ups
of artifacts.
How long is the program going to last?
30 minutes
2. After carefully reviewing the proposal guidelines, prepare your submission materials for mailing.
Please send all relevant information about each project. The following elements are expected:
|
Project Proposal: |
|
|
|
Synopsis - briefly
outline the subject and story of the program or the larger context out of
which the story evolved. |
|
|
Treatment (Required) -
clearly communicate how the television program will unfold from beginning to
end. Include details on story structure, theme, style, format, voice, and
point-of-view. |
|
|
Project timetable -
provide a schedule of all phases of production. |
|
|
Interactive elements - Explain
how you plan to enhance your project your blog. Discuss specific elements of
the proposed site and provide information on the web production team . |
|
|
Key Personnel - provide
detailed biographies or resume information of the key project staff (i.e.,
producer, director, writer, cinematographer, editor) as well as experts,
consultants and talent. |
Take into account
A proposal consists of a written condensation of a proposed TV production.
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 key scenes .
The basic production needs and approximate times of the segments are included.
Anyone reading a program proposal should be able to get a clear idea of the entire production.

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.

What is a storyboard?
Once your script
is written , the next step is to make a storyboard. A storyboard visually tells
the TV news program panel by panel, kind of like 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 out shot by shot. You can
make changes to your storyboard before you start shooting, instead of changing
your mind later. You will also be able to talk about your animation and show
your storyboard to other people to get feedback on your ideas.
How do I make a storyboard?
Most commonly, storyboards
are drawn in pen or pencil. If you don't like to draw you can also take photos,
cut out pictures from magazines, or use a computer to make your storyboards.
Keep in mind that your drawings don't have to be fancy! In fact, you want to
spend just a few minutes drawing each frame. Use basic shapes, stick figures,
and simple backgrounds. If you draw your storyboard frames on index cards, 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 and the subject.
DISSOVLE: A transition between two shots, where one shot fades away and simultaneously another shot fades in.
FADE - A transition from a shot to black where the image gradually becomes darker is a Fade Out; or from black where the image gradually becomes brighter is a Fade In.
HIGH CAMERA ANGLE: A camera angle which looks down on its subject making it look small, weak or unimportant.
JUMP CUT: A rapid, jerky transition from one frame to the next, either disrupting the flow of time or movement within a scene or making an 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 the subject, often providing a broader range of the setting.
LOW CAMERA ANGLE: A camera angle which looks up at its subject; it makes the subject seem important and powerful.
PAN: A steady, sweeping movement from one point in a scene to another.
POV (point of view shot): A shot which is understood to be seen from the point of view of a character within the scene.
REACTION SHOT- 1.: A shot of someone looking off screen. 2.: A reaction shot can also be a shot of someone in a conversation where they are not given a line of dialogue but are just listening to the other person speak.
TILT: Using a camera on a tripod, the camera moves up or down to follow the action.
ZOOM: Use of the camera lens to move closely towards the subject.
