                  Induction 3:Justification for TV logo


My TV programme logo is about a boy that gets excluded and will do anything to get in to that GCSE exam hall and get his results. The setting is a small school which has its problems and has resulted kicking out all the worst students. The main characters are the head teacher and the boy called Mitchell, the other characters include other teachers, Mitchell's friends, families and enemies. The storyline could involve the scene he got kicked out for, his home life, going out life and how he is going to get in to the exam hall and achieve respectable results. I am happy that i have been able to insert pictures into thinking bubbles adding to the effect, i did this by using the magic wand tool. If i had payed a little more attention to detail it would have been a good piece of work i think. I chose the background because he is a troubled kid and the night effect adds he is a rebel that stays out late.

WATERLOO ROAD CASE STUDIES 

I think this is a good logo because it shows that the school is disorganized and they have no control over the students. All the tables are crocked and in a dark room but the tables are lit up. it appeals to the audience that it is messy and busy class room.



The cast are all sitting together with not very tidy uniform, they are really scruffy and this sums up the school. The wall behind is full of graffiti and is chavy. They all have different uniform and don't wear correct uniform.






The program is put on television at eight o'clock because young children are usually asleep and it has bad language and inappropriate scene's.I think it is on thursdays because it is late in the week and people go to school on thursdays so they are trying to make it real as possible.

From what i can see Waterloo road is a school where the pupils do not were uniform, all crowd up in the playground, smash windows with hockey sticks, do spice girl dances in the playground and argue. The teachers dont look smart and they have a fag break in the playground...

The connotation of that is that the teachers dont really care about their jobs and are more interested in the pub then the pupils. The pupils are chavs and act as though they are gangsters.

overall the school is very chavy and probably one of the worst schools in the borough.
