How to set up your equipment

Transcript

VISION:
We find Ryan sat at his lounge / diner table which is strewn with lots of model making paraphernalia. He stares perplexed as he hold an empty bottle in one hand and a small model ship in the other.
Ryan looks up skyward in response…
… And puts down the ship and bottle and goes to the other side of the room.
He picks up the box containing his Freeview digital box and walks to the sofa. He sits down and begins taking components out while Brian checks them off verbally.
Ryan shakes the empty box as it has no scart lead.
Ryan picks up an electrical shop bag and produces a Scart lead from it.
Ryan walks over to the TV and looks behind the TV at the aerial cable plugged into the aerial socket on the wall.
Ryan follows instructions. CU on aerial socket. Ryan takes the aerial cable from the back of the TV and plugs it into the digital box.
Ryan follows instructions. CU on ‘TV’ socket where Ryan plugs the scart into the scart socket of the digital box.

A screen appears offering Ryan the option to tune his box, he presses ‘OK’ on his remote control to confirm
Ryan follows instructions, Retuning bar appears, in the process of retuning
Screen shows BBC1.
Ryan cranks up the volume…
… And then turns it down.
Ryan sinks into the sofa remote in hand.
LS focus pull from Ryan to the lounge / diner table, where the ship is very amateurly stuffed into the neck of the bottle. Appears on screen with Brian’s line.
‘FREEVIEW SET-UP. MUCH EASIER THAN BUILDING A SHIP IN A BOTTLE’
VO:
Brian speaks off screen:
RYAN! BEFORE YOU EVEN THINK OF TRYING TO PUT THAT IN THERE, YOUR FREEVIEW ISN’T EVEN OUT OF ITS BOX!
NOW COME ON!
SET UP ISN’T THAT DIFFICULT!
Now. Open the box and you shall find the following. A Freeview digital box, a power lead, a remote control, some batteries for the remote control and a Scart lead. Now..
… Oh. You don’t have a Scart lead? Not to worry, some Freeview digital boxes don’t come with them but for around £5 you can find a good quality…
… AH SPLENDID! THAT’S THE FELLOW!
WELL THAT’S EVERYTHING WE NEED TO GET CRACKING. Now, the television’s switched off? Good. Now lets now get round the back.
Take the aerial lead from the back of the TV and put it into the aerial socket of the digital box – it should be clearly marked.
Now, that Scart lead goes into the Digital Box in the socket marked ‘TV’.
Then, plug the other end into the FIRST Scart socket on your television.
Switch your TV on standby, and then switch it on with your television remote control.
Once that is done – plug in the power lead to your new digital box AND TURN IT ON! Most televisions will automatically detect the digital box, but for others, on the television remote control go to AV1.
Most digital boxes are ready to automatically start tuning.
Once your Freeview digital box is tuned, you’ll see BBC1. You can now use your Freeview remote control, to change the channel and adjust the volume…
DON’T ANNOY THE NEIGHBOURS RYAN!
There’s also a nifty TV guide to find the programmes you like.
AND THAT’S IT! NOW, THAT WASN’T TOO HARD WAS IT RYAN?
