Overview:
Could you sell ice to the Eskimos? Do you while away the hours by concocting hilarious jingles and contagious catchphrases? Well why not have a go and see just how fun the wonderful world of television advertising can be or take your skills to a new level using professional equipment and realistic scenarios.
We can offer your group the exclusive chance to have a look at behind the scenes television advertising and even have the chance to shoot your own television commercial all while creating a totally unique teambuilding experience.
Format:
A host will meet and greet your group at the venue. Your group will be divided into teams and each team will have all the necessary equipment to shoot a full length television commercial.
Each team must assign a Director, camera operator, props manager, wardrobe manager, actors and extras. Instructors will observe how each team works and award/deduct points accordingly contributing to the final score.
The Shoot:
The directors and camera crew will be briefed by instructors on how long the film must last and how long to allow for shooting and they'll get tips on sound and lighting. Each team decides who will play each role, teams are allowed to film in any style they choose and each team will promote a different product.
Halfway through the shoot each team will be given a list of words that they have to include in the advert, the only other requirement is that the commercial must be filmed in a single take, rewinding the camera is forbidden and will result in negative scoring.
Truly Terrific Teambuilding:
We think this is the perfect event for groups who are after improved communication skills as everyone will be learning new skills and have to rely on one another for a successful shoot. Everyone will have a blast working in telelvision and who knows, maybe you'll have some undiscovered talent in your team!
