Studio Production: Chosen Idea to Pitch

After talking to Helen we spoke about my 3 ideas and whether they are strong enough and which one is the better one to pitch, some of the stuff said:

For Idea 1- sitcom 

Helen said to watch the series Derek and Vicious as these are more like what I am following with the elderly and care home comedy idea. 

Is the idea going to be like Mrs Browns Boys and defy what people think of the elderly or break the boxes. 

The storyline needs a lot of work in order to chose the is idea as the storyline is curial to making the program and also would help with the sorting of the idea and what would relieve a lot of pressure off the production and make it more viable to make. 

Pictures from other comedies and care homes needed for the pitch and a synopsis.

Helen loved the second idea and said would be easier and viable and a good choice to continue with but just being blindfolded and eating wouldn't be enough for the show and would need more storyline and work especially with health and safety. 

after the talk I had another idea of 2 more stages to the competition which would need to be recce'd to see whether it could be done in the studio and if its safe enough. 

After the talk I have decided I will continue with idea 2 and just work on the storyline, the contestants and to test out each stage with someone and record it for the pitch. I need to work on all the details like the characters and the stages and the timings just to see if its going to fit the 30 minutes and how its going to be scored and if there is going to be a prize etc. 

There is a lot of things to do for the pitch but I know what needs to be done and am happy with this chosen idea I just need to make sure I have as much as detail for the pitch so my idea is chosen.
