To start our first project with DFTV, we were given a BBC3 design studio brief. To kick off the project I created 3 mood boards to illustrate my ideas and concepts. The first mood board considers BBC3 light entertainment in general and different ideas of gameshows. Mood board 2 looks at the dating show design idea which later became my final idea. Mood board 3 looks at the idea of an escape room however I feel that this wasn't the best fit for the design brief as it didn't fit the required age range demographic of 16-34 years old.
One of the first steps I took was researching pre-existing game shows and chat shows as well as studio set-ups and live locations, particularly looking at 'First Dates' TV show due to the restaurant themed setting. I found that many of the shows were set up around the lighting to convey colour and mood as well as many of the live shows being held at night or in the evening to add a sense of intimacy and late night show to the atmosphere. Since our project age range is 16-34 my show will also take place during the evening.
When looking back at my mood boards, I feel as though i potentially could have centred around colour choice and palette more looking at purples and blues for the dating show idea. Moving forwards I will be using the Dating show idea as I think it is the perfect fit for not only BBC3 content but also our set demographic.
