AS2-Task Two:Designing the Suite

As I have mentioned before the theme I have decided on doing is space, therefore the final three ideas I have are to do with bedtime, morning and halloween. All of the ideas are suitable as well as appeal to the target audience of six to twelve year olds due to the fact that it is educational and the idea is simple. A further point is that there will be a lot of colours making the ident visually good and the music to identify the channel is very engaging as the children will want to join along to a sound that should, and probably is recognisable.

The first storyboard is to be shown before bedtime to prepare the children for them to be relaxed. Furthermore, the first box simply shows two planets which is evidently Earth and in the distance is Mars, but what begins to happen in the next box is that the people who are on Earth have gone to sleep so the 'Zzz' appear which gradually occurs in the third box as well. Then there is a rocket that was sent out onto Mars which is arriving back to Earth while everyone is asleep, thus all through the ident the rocket is going around in circles so that the rocket can go across leaving a puff of smoke spelling CBBC. Plus the shots I will have throughout is a wide shot, while all the plasticine will be moving out of the shot slowly, apart from the letters which will be appearing. Although when every image is edited together it will be fairly quick. Last but not the least this is a simple idea whereas the others that I am about to mention are slightly complicated.

Additionally, the idea for this storyboard was due to halloween coming up in a few weeks therefore it would be more relevant. The first box is almost educational as every planet from the solar system is going to be shown, yet the shot will be a zoom into Saturn and also Uranus where there is a CBBC house party. So there is a green alien who is going to be travelling as a witch on her broomstick as there will be gravity. The aspect of gravity might be intriguing to the children hence they will want to find out more about it. Then there will be another shot where it zooms in once again as the alien/witch turns up, it will go closer on the letters of the channel. Even more so, what I am trying to say is that the shot types included is going to be close ups from a high angle tracking shot from the left hand side moving to the right hand side as it follows the alien/witch. Another point is that the movement which I have mentioned before has to be done slowly to show a smooth progress, when edited it will then be able to fit to the channel theme song in time as it will become one whole piece instead of be disorientated at a completely different time.  

Lastly, this idea is for daytime because there is the sun that will be doing an experiment but due to the heat it is giving off and the chemicals that have been mixed together, they have caused these evaporating bubbles to form the CBBC in the air. In addition, the types of shots involved in recording this will be a high angle shot and it is because the plasticine is somewhat flat but not too much otherwise it would be difficult to move the plasticine around, therefore it also allows for definition to be added. The only movement is going to be of the suns arm and possibly the rays along with a lot of round balls which represent the bubbles and the mouth. These four will have precise movements so that there is always something to diverge the children's attention to new things, plus the issue with this being complicated is slightly to do with the fact that the ident is overall going to actually be in one position. Also the time of this ident would have been extremely short compared to the ident I have chosen to film, which is not long as well but it is long enough to show quite a few educational detail.
