Our news package will revolve around student accommodation; looking into why the Manchester College doesn’t provide accommodation for its students as a standard, the same way in which almost every other higher education outlet in Manchester does, and the lack of help or advice from the college in aiding students to find private accommodation elsewhere. We hope that through our research, we will be able to present a news package that is well rounded, in-depth and evenly balanced, that we can then incorporate into our UStream program to serve towards igniting an interesting and healthy debate. We also hope that through providing this information to students at the college, along with students throughout Manchester, we can make more people aware of the issue at hand, and in the process, maybe even change the accommodation problem at the college itself.
We will research a range of information and statistics; including numbers of attendees going to all Manchester College campuses who are living away from home and students that had to stay at home who would of liked to move into accommodation. We will conduct interviews with people attending the college, who have been directly affected by the issue - in some cases students in our own class - and we will try to gain an interview with someone who works at the college such as the finance counsellor, and finally we hope to gain an interview with someone from an external private hall; e.g. a student welfare officer, all of this serving as our primary research for the assignment.

The secondary sources we will use to bolster our package will come from a number of places; such as the college website, private accommodation websites, magazines giving listings on available accommodation and accommodation that is available to students of certain Colleges and Universities, but have restrictions on students at the Manchester College, also from a wide range of other news packages on UStream and YouTube.
In order to create the news package, we intend to film our interviewees at their respective places of residence or work, so for students at the college, we hope to obtain and complete all of the paperwork necessary to film at his/her private halls of residence, as for the staff at college we aim to film the interview at their desk, then the same with the staff at the private halls, hopefully providing a sense of realism and some variety to the package. We will then hope to gain some GV's from in and around the college, the private halls and then around Manchester itself, focussing mainly on student orientated areas, finishing the whole program with a timelapsed film of Media City as a backdrop.
