I'm a blogging whore.

I'm aware that I've been neglecting this bloggywog of late, and instead favouring myself and Leigh's blog at www.peoplewillreadanything.blogspot.com. But there's a very good reason for that. I'm VERY excited about the project we're planning. We've been scouring the Internet and have come up with a lot of research, much of which can be found on the group blog. We've questioned every new thing that we've learnt so far in this module, and as a result, come up with what we thing are some really original and interesting ideas. The only problem we're having now is narrowing it down to just one idea that we want to focus on. While "People Will Watch Anything" is still at the forefront of the project, that statement raises a lot of other questions and sub-topics, which we're having difficulty narrowing down.

Our main idea at the moment is to create a series of sketches which parody such popular television programme formats as Big Brother. Obviously these would be exaggurated somewhat, in order to illustrate our point (i.e. just how pointless/ridiculous they are). Humour is an excellent way of getting people to pay attention, so the funnier and more dramatic we can make them, the better. Anyway, we know what we think, and if we can sit through a double bill of Laguna Beach and come out the other side, by God, we can get through this.
