Introduction
It is proposed that the programme will be 45 to 60 minutes long, filmed at various
locations throughout the United Kingdom and edited at our Derby facility.
The programme will emphasise the positive aspects of WH Syndrome and will
promote family values. Filming will take place at the WH Syndrome National
Meeting on the 12/13 June, at family homes in various locations, and at a primary
school.
The programme will concentrate on promoting family values and will reflect family
life both during the National Meeting and with families at home. Interviews with
medical personnel and support-group members will inform parents needing
support and guidance. The programme will concentrate on the abilities of
individual children, and will show a range of ages from 6 months to 35 years.
Problems likely to be encountered by new members of the group will be
discussed, and signposting to support agencies will be included.
The programme will include the following:
a) Informal interviews with parents of WH Syndrome children (parents to be
contacted by Luis Carrara).
b) Interviews with geneticists and other specialists (research into potential
interviewees is being undertaken).
c) Positive images of family life:
• playing with siblings
• outings with family
• meal times
• bedtime / stories.
d) Children achieving:
• at school
• at care centres
• feeding
• playing
• activities (swimming, bowling, etc.).
e) Support framework
• at the annual meeting – discussion / talks
• at other times – group support / telephone support / agencies.
f) Voice-over and music to emphasise positive images (music being researched
through Zomba Music).
The programme would use the National Meeting as the focal point of the
programme with inserted material shot at a number of locations. The programme
would have a structure built around the two-day event that starts with families
arriving and finishes with families departing. The middle section, discussions
about joys and worries, would be separated by a green screen to enable viewers
to find this section easily.
Programme structure (initial ideas)
The programme will start with a short montage sequence of images from the
body of the programme. This will be accompanied by a superimposed title
sequence and music.
