Planning and Designing a set

For the planning and designing of a set, it is generally left to the Art and Design team, who desigb the whole set - from the board on the front of the table to the back boards, it is the Art Designs job. When planning and designing the set for a TV Show, one of the important things to think about is that the set design needs to match the meaning of what the TV Show is about, you couldn't have the design of 'Question Of Sport' be all pink and colourful with no real reference to sport at all. For our live TV Quiz show, we have chosen the theme of a circus, and have designed our set to be like a tent that would be seen at a said circus, including the Show Logo, "Media Circus." Here are some pictures of our set still in-making.





As you can see, we have chosen quite colourful colours on our set to represent a circus theme, although we had to be careful in which colours we chose as one of the important things of designing and planning a set is choosing the right colours, you have to think about what will make the talent stand out, rather than the set, aswell as colours the camera will be able to film, as the cameras may not be able to handle too bright colours, and could end up with a messy and untidy looking set on the final filming.
