Charity Feature

• The people I have always wanted to make a difference for in terms of charity are the people who live local but do not have a home. 
• I want to make a video promoting a homeless charity group in victoria called The Passage. The main point of my video is to show that not all homeless people have a drinking problem or drug problem and also the possible ways people can become homeless and mentally affected.
• This is a link to their website: http://www.passage.org.uk/

Here is a video promoting The Passage charity:
The Passage run a day centre next to Victoria Station which is used by up to 200 people a day. As well as providing the basics - food, showers, laundry facilities and clothing - the centre's main aim is to move people on by offering them help with mental health or drug and alcohol services, benefit claims, accommodation, training and employment. StreetSmart's grant helps fund the costs of food provision at the centre.

Comady Item

• For my comedy item I plan to get a few people to dress up in funny costumes and make a mini film.The theme of the mini film will be two groups of people wearing costumes compeating together to win money for a charity.
•  The group will play football, basketball and finish by a race. The winner then gets to announce that they will be bring the money in to the colleges rednose day event to donate it. During the competition there will be sections where each character will do a small interview talking about their motivations and who the want to benefit with the money.

Live item

• For the live item the people in costumes should appear at the show and do a mini quiz show about charities around the world testing peoples knowledge on things that happen around the world and charities that help. 
• We could also have a game activity where 6 people of the audience or public have an egg and spoon race and a three legged race to win something like a red nose or T-shirt.

Recourses

• As you already would have expected we would need to have costumes for the video item and live item. 
• We would probably need to make a title banner for our live section and get horns for the quiz part of the show. 
• Also we will need to get some eggs, spoons and rope for the activity part of the show.

Presentation

• There will be a comedic and wacky theme through out the video item and live item to keep a pleasant mood and atmosphere for people taking part and the people watching. The only time hosts wont be joking around will be when they are promoting a charity or explaining about a charity and what it can help.

Potential constraints and ways around them

• One of the main potential constraints of the show will be time and whether or no we will over run our given time or not. In order to avoid over running we will have to do our best to stick to a schedule once we make one and not go on to long on an activity in the live section.
