-View one episode of Casualty from the BBC iPlayer and one episode of Eastenders from the iPlayer.
-List all of the similarities in terms of conventions.
-Group these similarities into MICRO (camera, mise en scene, editing, sound) and MACRO (broader representational themes)
-You are in 5 groups of 2:
Torin and Riain,
Lauren K and Daniel D,
Dan K and Charlotte,
Lauren Killen and Alex
Chris and Maria
-By emailing each other back and forth (you all have each others' emails), I would like you to discuss how you would make a Hospital drama look LESS like a soap opera.
-I would then like you to create a storyboard for the joining of 2 story lines in a hospital drama, one dealing with the personal/social aspect and the other with a hospital story, whilst trying to make this look LESS like a soap opera. Include the micro and macro elements in your storyboard as per above. Your work on Hollyoaks should also prove useful here.
-I would like this to be completed by Wednesday 22 October so you can create a Keynote to give to your class on your findings and also to present your ideas
