One Man Church

So university is kinda fun, its stressful and scary and daunting and tiring but it's kinda fun.

Today in my Content Creation class we were given 4 words and had to come up with a programme idea. The words we were given: 

Chair Smelling Dancing Antidisestablishmentarianism  

The original idea we came up with:

One Man Church - a 3 part documentary on Channel 4 about a vicar who needs to reconnect the local village with the church. He plans a church fair to raise money to replace the old smelly chairs in the church and plans to have the dance group Diversity perform. 

We then were given a different channel, ours was a Netflix drama so we changed the idea. 

People start attacking, damaging and vandalising the church and it's up to the vicar to find out who's doing it and put a stop to it. 

This taught us how an idea can arise (from 4 random words) but also how it can be adapted and changed to suit a particular channel, genre or time.
