The Cube
The Cube is a British game show which first aired on ITV on 22 August 2009. Presented by Phillip Schofield, it offers contestants the chance to win a top prize of £250,000 by completing challenges from within a 4m × 4m × 4m Perspex cube. The show is based on the idea that even straightforward tasks become extremely challenging when confined and put under pressure in front of a large live studio audience. Once inside contestants can feel both claustrophobic and disorientated. Using "state-of-the-art filming techniques" the show aims to demonstrate the intense anxiety which contestants undergo as they progress through each task. Colin McFarlane provides the disembodied voice of The Cube, who explains the rules of the games.

UNIT 24 WRITING FOR FILM & TV TASK 1 (Livia)
A screenwriter is a
person who makes written blueprints of films. This person is in the original
person designing the overall inspiration and understanding that they rest of
the cast, crew and whomever else will start at.
Screenwriters have a
task of designing the story that will be put on screen in the overall outcome
of the project or idea that is being crafted, this is regardless of what other
jobs within the project will do or add to this; it’s what the screenwriter
crafts that will be the platform for any change or additional construction. The
job is hard in the sense that a screenwriter commonly has to spend long periods
of time crafting, building up and mastering a script to perfection.
A screenwriter has to
be extremely imaginative in terms of having to already have a finished, ordered
and perfect movie in mind to write out or at least have a perfect film, as an
outcome with all of the competition is tough to pull of.
A screenwriters has to
not only research whatever story they’re undertaking but develop the narrative,
write and deliver the piece in the format it’s required.
Screenwriters require
to present their work in a ‘Master shot’ format, as their work is unlikely to
be considered without these minimum requirements harshly.
To conclude a
screenwriter’s real job is to be a foundation to encourage creative flows to
anybody they’re working with for or around; any body who reads their doing.
They have to make their work a written film in which the reader feels one with
and can see as if the script was being played out right in front of them.
A screenwriter is the
fire-starter to the success of a project and without a good screen writer a
good project is impossible.
