Welcome to London..

For the last couple of days everything's been a tad hectic! Over night uncomfortable coaches and long walks from place to place but it was all worth it with the opportunities we were given.

I missed the first day of the three day London trip. Instead, I headed down on the wednesday evening to stay for a couple of days.

Thursday was really interesting because we met Morgan Matthews, who is directing Britain in a Day. Whilst visiting him in his office we were lucky enough to be shown the rough cut of the programme and give him constructive criticism. I must admit, this wasn't easy at first when your picking apart a Bafta winning directors work but he was really open and wanted as much feedback as possible.

Friday was probably my best day out of the two, even though both events were brilliant opportunities that I didn't want to miss. We got to work with the development team in the TwoFour office in London. They split us into two groups and worked with us to pitch an idea for a certain slot. It helped to contextualise a certain type of audience to a certain type of show. From the beginning, coming up with an imaginary character called Jane felt odd, but by the end of the brainstorm it helped as you started to think what Jane would like to watch. Her hobbies we had created helped to pick the genre of the show. Overall, an amazing couple of days!!!
