This production meeting would be the final meeting with Helen before we start the live show the following week. Here we discussed what we have already, what needs to change and just a clarification that everyone is on task and is ready for show.
The first issue that needed addressing is that we have an all male casting, consisting of a male host and 2 male contestants. As Helen had pointed out before, this needed to change. The host would stay the same, there's no discussion about that, however we had to choose whether we wanted to keep Jamie Terry or Dan Eycott. Of course we couldn't let one go until we had found a female replacement, but I had addressed to Helen that despite posting multiple ads, we simply didn't get any female contestants (with the exception of the 2 that dropped out late). It was my job to find a replacement, with help from the rest of the group. Simon got into contact with a former student, Helen Welsh, who was more than happy to do the show, so it became my job to share the details with her as need be.
Elsewhere, Becca and Ellen would start working together on the lighting plan for the show. Though the lighting crew are aware of the surroundings, it is still important to notify them of where the contestants will be standing, where the props will be, etcetera.
It was decided that one of the students will be doing the make-up, as drastic changes were not needed, just as long as they don't shine.
Sammi would sort out the flooring for the set as there was no response regarding the flooring from the set design.
And finally an extra £20 was required from the group (£2 each) to compensate for additional payments.
