Ideas for Production

Idea 1: A musical discussion, the main question will be how hard is it to make it into
the music industry, there will be 3 different interviews, all with musicians, two will be
in the studio and one will be on location at a small venue before they play, the first
interview will be with a male musician in the studio then on location and then another
interview with a female musician. The background for the studio will be a music
studio. The questions will all be about how long they have been trying, different
techniques used, what they have learned ECT.

Idea 2: The second idea will be on which is better, X Box or PS3. There will be a
debate between two people and an interview outside a game store with someone who
works there talking about sales. The background for the studio will be a PS3 on one
side a vs sign in the middle and an X box on the other side.

Chosen Idea: (Topic / Style / Genre / Audience)

The chosen Idea will be idea 1, a musical debate; the audience will be wide because
a lot of people like music but it will focus on people who want to become successful,
the on location part will be interviewing a musician just before they play in a concert
at college.
