Hello!
We are third year Television Production Students here at Middlesex University and for our major project we wanted to use our love of entertainment shows and studio productions to create something that was quirky and unique - a simple idea that is now a full blown production; that is how Class Of Nerds was born. We have come up with the concept, we have the space and studio equipment and we're now working on the props and actors. However we can't do this alone and need your help to bring this studio production to life!
Class Of Nerds is a studio-based, school-themed game show that features two panels competing against each other in three rounds of school-based games. The Victorian School theme will be used to dress the set, create the costumes for our actors and to identify specific props for the production - such as the cane. Set in the world today with modern people and a modern language, this show is expected to be full of fun, laughter and entertainment for the entire family to watch and enjoy together.
We have all worked incredibly hard in order to come up with a workable format, games that are entertaining and a programme that a whole range of audience members will enjoy. The dedicated crew involved are:
We are currently in the pre-production stage meaning we are still planning everything to do with the production so we are all set for the production stage. We will soon put out a casting call so we can begin to get the contestants and presenter ready for the recording day. The filming itself will take place in the middle of March 2017.
With your generous donations we can raise the money needed to take care of crucial parts in the production of our game show. Below you can see the breakdown of how we would spend our minimum budget of £500.
We have set our minimum budget to £500 in order to ensure that we can cover the basics and turn the studio into a life-size school classroom.
Any money we raise beyond our target will go on further props and giving the cast a little extra for their work. It will also be put towards the private screening we will be holding once the project is completed.
We are appealing to our friends, family, board game lovers and game show lovers to help us as we embark on this exciting opportunity!
You can find out more about the rewards we are offering on the right. Each level of donation brings different rewards, therefore think carefully before you donate!
Certain donors will be invited to be part of the audience in the LIVE recording of Class Of Nerds at Middlesex University in March. Space is limited though and this reward will be offered on a 'first come, first served' basis.
We will also be holding a private screening with snacks included when the film is completely finished. We will provide further details once the pilot episode has been completed.
