So this is the unit i have been dreading sense 1st year. It is completely out of my comfort zone as I dont really watch a lot of studio set shows on tv such as game shows or early morning talk shows. The only thing I watch that is set in a studio is sitcoms. This got me thinking about different kinds of sitcoms that I watch. The Big Bang Theory, The Fresh Prince of Bel air and The IT Crowd to name a few. This was my idea from before we even had our brief and when we got given it and I seen Sitcom on the list of available ideas I almost jumped out of my seat! THANK THE GODS!
So this got me thinking about what kind of Sitcom would I want to make? I want it to be original and have my own mark on it. So after going through a couple of ideas in my head spanning from horror/Comedy ideas to romantic ideas I finally came up with my idea which was slapping me in the face all along!
We are told to write about what we know. And for this project I am struggling at how hard it is to think of a sitcom idea and thats it!
I want to base my sitcom idea on a group of friends who work for a production company coming up with tv show ideas. And they like me are stuck on thinking of a new idea for a sitcom.
So in a nut shell my sitcom idea is about a group of friends trying to think of a sitcom idea. I would also call it "Sitcoms". The whole show would take place in their shared office as they try to think of ideas for sitcoms while dealing with issues in their own lives. With it taking place in their office it wont need much of a set which will work with the brief which asked for the sets to be minimal.
I will continue to post more as my idea develops.
