PIDDLE THROUGH HISTORY

Process of development.
The initial idea of animating mistakes in history essays was a good basis but not strong enough on its own. After our test voice-overs a character seemed to appear, the professor. We toyed with making him an animated character but this would have got in the way of a simple idea. much better that we don't see him the narration and characterization will hopefully add humor and pin the thing down. In the pitch and bible we will use mocked up photos of professor piddle to add a sense of authenticity and credit to our idea which we thought would be best played tongue in cheek!
The title has changed from "The Anals of History" to a child friendly, "Piddle through History" which I like better as it carries our characters name plus the obligatory double meaning.
I began to write the presentation in the style of a really bad pitch beginning with a hopelessly
mixed metaphor. Rosie found some photos to add to the nonsense, I hope the BBC woman has seen enough bad pitches to get the joke!
Costumes may play a part If we have time, I'm thinking maybe tank tops and corduroys.
