Any ideas for a 10 minute programme?

Question

I am a TV production student, and this year I have to write, direct and edit my own short programme (10 mins), or a longer one (up to 30 mins). I can do anything, factual or fictional and it can be anything from a documentary to a music video or a drama, comedy etc... I've brainstormed a few ideas which I like, but I was wondering what kind of things you would like to watch? What do you find interesting? I basically have free reign as long as it's pre-watershed - so no s*x, violence, drugs or alcohol.

Answer 1

I would do something that I am passionate about, something that I could really get into and have a sense of achievement from. Everybody likes different things. I would be careful of doing a drama, or something fictional, as it will either be a big hit or a huge miss. With a documentary you can get it right, but as long as you do your research and make it interesting... and remember to stay on the topic :o) Good luck anyway!
