Alex Dahdah · Producer & assistant director
Production
Alex produced the show and worked as assistant director, delegating production roles across the student team. Directed by Rita Choueifaty, the project was made for TV Production Principles at the Lebanese American University in fall 2017.
Planning
Alex staged a diversion suggesting the production was not ready while the studio was already prepared with the instructor’s wife, Takla Chamoun. The apparent breakdown was part of the setup for bringing the instructor into the show.
Programme structure
The team filmed with the instructor’s wife at home before the studio recording. The production script brought the recorded profiles, question rounds, performance segments and camera cues into one sequence.
