Update!Hi guys!
It's been a while since you've heard from us. Since our last post, we have held our audition and casted our presenters which includes: Tess O'Flaherty and Lisa Altamura as field presenters. And the lovely Summa Edwards as our studio anchor host. You may have seen Summa on Channel 9's Feeling Good!
So what have we been getting up to? We've attend some very useful business course: 'The Art of Essential Business' which was extremely helpful for getting our proposal ready and help search for a sponsor or partnership. The course is on-going and we have a annual review coming up and a chance to pitch our idea to over 70 local businesses for an off-your-couch speed 'dating' setting!
Then it was time to get to the nitty gritty of production! We completed our film and edit of the field shoots, manage to negotiate the use of UniSA's studio in Magill University. And with Andrei Gostin's valuable help, we got the set design started. And the technical team did a great job with the lighting and finalising the set design. Check out the pictures in our gallery!
The day of the shoot went really smooth - our team worked extremely well! Summa was professional and great on camera, our tech team Andrei, Matt, Fiona and Micheal...our guest speakers Ali Uren, Rebecca Vartto and Julie Zanes. The make up crew were extremely valuable, and Paul Hamilton of course!!
We're currently compiling the edit together, and from what I've seen the show looks great ;). And only recently we've attended AFTRS television pitching course, met some great people in the industry and learnt some great tips!
So guys, wish us luck in our next stage with seeking grants, partnerships and pitching our show to the networks. Stay tuned!Audition for presenters in What Women Want!
