L6th A and Lower Sixth B Media Prep


You are the producer for an independent tv production company. Write two pitches of 600 words each.

You might wish to consider the following points in your pitch.
Which channel will broadcast it? Why?
What time will it be broadcast? Why?
Which advertisers might be attracted to advertising around your programme?
What genre is your programme? Drama? Soap? Game-Show? Reality?
Are there any existing programmes similar to it that are succesful?
Which demographic and Psychographic groups will the programme attract? Why?

Try to paint a detailed portrait of what your programme is and who it will attract. This is a chance to be both creative and practical. Can you devise a new tv programme that would be a success?
