We came up with the idea of basing it on ‘Live from Studio 5’, which tends to debate news rather than present it. We felt that presentation would have a younger feel and would engage the audience, getting them involved.
With time constraints we couldn’t debate the headlines as we’d have liked, but we added a couple of asides regarding a sports story. This story was a fun piece and we used a clip from YouTube to add colour. Also from YouTube, we closed our show with a clip of a kitten being tickled, which was a light-hearted way to end the programme.
As a backdrop to our presenters, we had headlines from news sources on Twitter, which alongside our clips from YouTube, gave our show a youthful, contemporary feel.
Additionally, we utilised our documentary from last week and ran packages about youngsters doing something inspirational. In the media, youngsters are presented as troublemakers and never make the headlines for the right reasons, so we wanted to address our audience and reverse the stereotype. We re-edited last week’s documentary and shot a package about Mikey, a student who spends his spare time as a carer.
Finally, we wanted to embrace the fact that Christmas was approaching so filmed a package giving students advice on cooking a Christmas meal on a budget.
