Production Design
The Production Design relates to designing, creating and building the set. This was the job of the Art Directors, during the process you have to design a practical but also good looking set that will be aesthetically pleasing on camera and not overly complex to create as we had a small budget. First you come up with a basic idea, create concept art and have a rough idea of how you want your set to look. Included in your basic design you get a tonal palette, this is the colour scheme of the show as colours can reflect many different things, such as browns, oranges and yellows can make a scene seem very warm whereas greys, blues and dull colours make it appear very cold. You also have to consider distraction from the talent; if you make the set very overpowering it can distract the viewer so instead of watching the show they are more drawn to the backdrop. After the design you have to consider the space in which you have to build the set. So after you have designed you have to measure out the space; finally leaving you to build the set.
