For this project, we were tasked with creating a production during lockdown. We decided that we wanted to do something out of the box and unheard of in College Students and that was to do a Live Production. We wanted to do something that could be done remotely from home, but as well as it being fun and engaging. We settled with an idea of an eSports tournament that students across the college could enter and take part. This project has had a lot of Pre-Production to it, which has involved from concepting the idea to marketing it. One of the ideas I had was to email some Universities to see if they would sponsor the project. Between 2 Universities, we received a £140 Prize Pool for Students to win. This was a proud achievement for my team and myself as we had the backing of well known Uni’s as well as the backing of the college. We had a total of 148 students wanting to take part in the tournament. We have had feedback from lots of different departments across the college, expressing their excitement for the project and their amazement at the amount of effort and organisation that has gone into the project. The Live event took place on the 17th March, Live on HSDC Youtube. We had over 110 live viewers watching throughout the stream, and during the stream had over 1000 playbacks. This amazing success has resulted in a lot of interest from different senior members at the college.
