After calling the BBC for a spot in their Path Yorkshire talent search, we got a response confirming our attendance. We were told this was the BBC looking for fresh new talent and ideas to broadcast. Thrilled we went expecting to pitch Wilf-Life, however after the overview, we learnt it was more about them wanting YouTubers. A new audience they wanted to obtain, looking for fun, eccentric people and ideas to upload to their channel. Not really what we wanted, however we quickly came up with some ideas we could make, a mocumentry about hamsters living in a doll house in a domestic lifestyle with ordinary situations, or perhaps making it a western, using guinea pigs with saddles as horses. This was all thinking on the spot as we did not think Wild-Life was suited to this. We got a call back some time later saying they would be in touch in their next search, but we were unsuccessful this time. We did not mind this outcome, as we had our Extended Practice module to complete, along with our jobs and flat to hold down. However this maybe a post-uni thing we try at again. I will include a screenshot of this email in my submission as the information in it is confidential and we were asked not to distribute it.
