#TheAndroidShow

Client: Android Developers

Type: Multi-segment format live show, Animation, Social

Role: Producer / Exec Producer

When covid hit in 2020 the Android Developer Marketing team were unable to use their regular events to launch new products and connect with their developer community.

We worked with them to create #TheAndroidShow as a means of communicating and connecting digitally through a recurring quarterly multi-segment video format for their YouTube channel, utilising live functionality to splice pre-recorded VT’s with a live Q&A and interview segments.

I acted as the lead Producer for the first 2 shows, creating the blueprint for the format and it’s brand guidelines. I since acted as the Exec-Producer on the subsequent instalments through to 2024. As well as producing segments for Q1 in 2025.

My Role & challenges

As lead producer I helped oversee all initial creative development, as well as ensuring the strict Covid-19 requirements were met throughout the production during multiple waves of the outbreak - navigating ever changing safety guidelines for a complex multi-country production.

I helped source & negotiate key hosting talent in Ex-Mythbuster Kari Byron - whose personality and tech-y leanings gave the show a fun, zany flavour. We worked with scriptwriters at Speechless and created action filled host sections that would entertain and pull the audience through.

We worked within Covid-19 regulations with multiple remote shoots, with teams across the US & Europe to pull together the first episode. Keeping all filming in exterior locations.

We filmed in downtown SF Car parks, closed Science Museums and on the middle of a ranch in Marin County.

We doubled London for the US in certain segments and had to coordinate between multiple teams to create the seamless live actions/animation intro in Episode 2.

As Exec producer whilst Head of Production at Gramafilm, I oversaw multiple teams come in to produce the show - briefing them on the format and client and ensuring that production values were kept.
