Speak package production assignment 

In this assignment I will be talking about video games and whether you should pre order video games. The purpose is to try to encourage students to save money and buy games which are good and a faithful to what was shown and previews and are functional on release. The aim is to warn people to spend their money wisely as they don't have much money to spare and can't buy every new game on the market. The speech package will be warning people of the shady techniques companies are using to get you to buy the product involving showing content that isn't in the final product and making downgrades from when it was first shown to audiences. I will be talking about hype that surrounds some games and how it is a bad thing to over hype games and how you should always be skeptical before purchasing a product.

Treatment for my pre ordering video games speech package 

My idea is to have a speech package on weather people should pre order video games. I'm talking about this because it is becoming a rising issue in the industry as companies are taking the issue farther and farther. The purpose of my speech package is to make sure that people don't waste their money because of false advertising. 

My target audience are college students ranging from ages 16-19. My speech package will be targeting both genders, the only requirement will be that they are interested in video games and enjoy playing them. A lot of people in this age range plays video games to differing degrees, they also have a limited income so by making people aware of the shady business techniques they can be more skeptical and save money  instead of buying a game that wasn't what was promised. My style will be more on the formal informative side than the bubbly light style of some speech packages. I will be including students opinions so that the demographic does feel more involved and can relate to the speech package easily. 

I plan on interviewing a professional lecturer who specializes in the games industry and how it all works and why the games industry does the things that it does to sell copies. I will be doing my vox pops with both some game students as well as some students who enjoy playing video games.

For my music I will be using a mix of sound ques and soundtracks from video games in the background. For my actuality sounds I will have some clicks and some money noises.

For my secondary research I shall be searching for different people opinions on the subject and information about the latest pre order schemes in the industry.

My second idea about Japanese animation

I will be talking about Japanese animated series and how they don't line up with the common misconceptions that people associate with it. My speech package will encourage people to try watching anime and not to associate it as a childish cartoon show. This will be targeting people who are college students ranging from 16-19. More specifically people who are avid tv watchers or people who are interested in the medium of anime. This speech will have a light fun feel to it with a more positive and vibrant tone with an empathizes on encouraging people.  

My speech package will relate to my target audience because a lot of anime is aimed at a teenage demographic as well as introducing a new medium of entertainment to its key demographic.

I will interview an animation expert who teaches animation at the college I shall be getting some vox pops from people who watch anime and people who don't so I get balanced views on the topic. 

For my music beds I shall be using popular soundtracks from several different anime. for my actuality I will be using sound effects from different animated shows

For my secondary research I will be searching for reviews of certain animated shows and researching the different genres and there target audiences.

Treatment about netflix 

I will be talking about Netflix and its impact on the film and tv industry. I will also be talking about how there is a divide in what shows are on region especially the different shows that are on the north American region and the European region. I will be talking about the different range of shows on Netflix and whats new on Netflix this month. 

My speech package will relate to my target audience because a lot of people watch television and films and use Netflix to stream there tv instead of watching television. this will work as a sort of whats new type of show for Netflix by informing people of the new shows on Netflix. The speech package will be a mixture of informative discussion as well as some casual conversations about some of the shows on Netflix with some comments on the how people enjoyed certain shows and some jokes about shows that some people didn't like. 

I will be interviewing people on the streets about Netflix and how much they watch and if they know what new shows are on Netflix  this February. I will be talking to people in the film industry about how Netflix effects the industry and if it has a positive influence or a negative influence.

For my music beds I will be using music soundtracks from tv shows and films that are on Netflix.

For actuality noises I will use typing noises as well as recorded sound samples of shows playing out of a speaker to give the sense that someone is watching something on Netflix.

For my secondary research I will be watching reviews of Netflix original shows and looking for surveys on what are the most watched shows and films on the service. 

Scripts 

Video games

"The tripple a games industry is getting increasingly less trust worthy with its sketchy business practices. So can you trust these companies anymore:? Should you pre order games from the tripple a publishers? Where going to have a discussion about whether or not you should put you're trust in these games. 

More and more games are coming out with less and less content or innovation in the tripple a market. Some games aren't even complete, and example of which was Aliens Colonial Marines which advertised in game content which wasn't in the final product as well as promising intelligent ai which turned out to be false. A more recent example would be Assasins Creed Unity which is a massive mess for the pc platform making it virtually unplayable. The way to prevent this is to be skeptical about every pre release footage which is advertised. Wait until reviews from trusted sources are out so you can get a clear idea of what the game is actually worth the 60 pound price tag.

I'm here with .... to talk about whether you should trust publishers enough to buy the games the sell before the official release date.


I went and asked people on the streets about what they think about the current price of games and if they have been effected by shady business practices.

I encourage you to do some research and be skeptical about games before they are released so you don't waste your money on games that are unfinished or that you wont enjoy."
