Impartiality
Definition: Being impartial means not imposing or making known your own personal judgment or cultural values.
It means not projecting personal bias or beliefs. For interpreters this means no advising or counselling.
Also it can mean not following the rules in the TV business.
Below are examples of impartiality…
Jeremy Paxman has landed himself in hot water for breaking the BBC's rules on impartiality in a recent newspaper article he wrote about the Iraq war.
The Newsnight presenter was warned for claiming that Tony Blair based his justification for going to war on "lies" when the Chilcot inquiry has yet to report back on the former prime minister's reasoning.
The next example of impartiality is the controversial dance routines by Rihanna and Christina Aguilera during last December's The X Factor final were "at the limit" of acceptability for pre-9pm broadcast, but did not breach broadcasting rules, media regulator Ofcom has said.
Ofcom said that while the show had not breached its broadcasting code, elements of the performances were "at the limit of acceptability for transmission before the 9pm watershed".
Task 2
Task 3
I am going to pitch my Idea of a news report to you in this presentation.
Why we should use a news report to portray our charity event.
As you can see by the pictures, news reporters are taken very seriously, and are not based on a subject nor do they tell lies.
This is good because making a new report we would have to do exactly the same.
We should use a news report in our documentary because it will make the event more serious, also it will give us the chance to find out more about the charity and be creative with footage as well as act it out in some cases.
It would show everyone the story behind the event more than if we were just to do a normal video. So by doing this people are more likely to come because we are being serious.
Two presenters, this means that they can share the script between them, also by having two it makes it look more like a news report.
We would try and gather as much footage as we can on the charity, but as recent resources told me we cannot film in the children's ward so it means the only footage we might get is off of the BBC.
We would interview as many people as we can around school and add them in the new report so it seems more formal.
Find pictures and story’s on there website to include in the news report to make it more emotional.
Include the ticket price and the time & date that it is on, also include the event information.
Here is my research, I managed to find an actual news report on the subject we want to raise money for. Here is that news report.
These are just some of the things I included in the news report, as you can see, I have added interviews and I have added information to the news report. Also the video I found on the BBC I used it in to add an even more serious approach to the event.
Now the news report was only about 3 minutes long, I would have liked to have made it longer and added more stuff, but then I was afraid of making it too much so I am happy to have done this.
Task 4
Here is my new report that i created...
