BBC Drama Audince and Content

BBC 1:
They offer to try and make shows that all the family will enjoy and love, they aim to make great entertainment for all different cultures and genres, but BBC1 is like a shop window, so if you like what you see on BBC1 that you will want too see more of what they have to offer.
BBC1 have a programme called Big School and they are on their second series, and they have there target audience from 15+, which has a few comedians in such as Catherine Tate, David Walliams and a few others.
The BBC also have the worlds longest sci-fi show which is Doctor who, which they have just had their 50th anniversary.






BBC2:
They try too offer a alternative channel for different kinds of people such as crime lovers.
They aim to get new writers and new producers to make new stuff so that more people will watch some of the other programmes on BBC2.
BBC2 got to hold an episode of Doctor who On the 23rd august 2013, when the Doctor who team made the whole day for Doctor who.






BBC3:
BBC3 is a small channel who make a couple of series a year, they aim their target audience from the ages of 16-34, meaning that there is a massive age range, showing different types/genres for different types of people.
There was a BBC3 programme called In The Flesh about a load of zombies and people who have survived a "Zombie Apocalypse" which I think they aimed at teenagers, as loads of teenagers like Zombie games and other zombie type of films, Programmes.
BBC3 have a show called Bad Education which is more of a comedy then it is a drama but the show does have a few comedian's in, such as Jack Whitehall and Matthew Horne, this is aimed at 15+ which is good for young teenagers.

The Role Of The Writer L.O.R

The Role Of The Writer Lord Of The Rings

 

Making larger roles for the female characters (s) in the film.

Arwen in the beginning was just giving a little bit too do in the book but in the film they made her role a bit more better and made the movie more modern and not too sexist or racist, which means that Arwen gets a longer part instead of having a short poem, this would make it less sexist.
I think that making the women have longer roles in the film is good because it shows the women have a strong part in the story but the book gives the women a little a poem and that's all they get and this makes it a modern movie as there isn't any sexism or anything bad like that.

Taking out (omitting) certain characters in the film look at this site for help

 Writing an exposition (what has happened before the film starts) scene for the beginning of the film:
They had female characters do the voice over in the beginning and tell you different bits about the story and its put into a montage. They even took some of the characters out Tom Bombadil and they made the storyline more focused on the ring then anything else that is happening in the film.
Tom Bombadil wasn't a important person/part in any of the films Peter Jackson didn't think there was any need for him to be in it because he didn't have a good narrative.  






Working with the actors as characters to create some parts of the script. 




peter was trying to make it more like the book
1 page of dialog = 1 minute
 Had to break it down into 3 films
