When we were placed in our groups, we had to come up with a subject for the documentary to be based around. We all initially had our own ideas however they were overruled due to lack of interviewers or subject matter, we ended up eventually choosing online shopping – death of the high street as this, in recent years it has become extremely popular, we chose a variety of topics to discuss in this documentary such as the reliability of online shopping and the pro’s and con’s of this new internet phase. We decided to aim it at 16 + even though this seems like a vague target audience, online shopping has become popular with everyone as there are a variety of websites to suit everyone’s needs e.g. Ebay, Amazon etc. We discussed who we would interview and we agreed on numerous amounts of vox pops and interviews with managers from high street names. When discussing scheduling after we recently researched it, we agreed that we would like our documentary to be on Channel 4 as although this is stereotypically a young person’s channel, we would get a larger audience from this. We also decided that the best time to schedule this would be at 9pm as this is when the majority of over 16+ would be watching TV, we also hoped that if we placed it after a popular programme, we could inherit some viewers from the previous show. Finally we had to come up with our name for our programme, we wanted one that would be informative of what the show was about yet didn’t seem dull for the viewers to think this wouldn’t entertain them so we agreed on “Death of the high street”. We chose this wording as we think it explains the documentary and also it would stand out from different documentaries.
