Akshay PTC's and Nikhita PTC's

Two new types of PTC’S introduced
Anchor: The new breeds of PTC’s to hit the journalism market are Akshay PTC & Nikhita PTC, two variants, but of high intensity and dedication, they can put any kind of mike into the throat of the remaining 221.

Effects on Akshay – Found leaner after the PTC exercise.
On Nikhita - Facts and Figure –ney, ney… nothing…figure is the same almost.

Why Akshay PTC’s

Relevance to the locationClosest to Pune.
Qualities- The multi-skilled professional people look forward to. He can act, pronounce, catch snakes, top the academics, write excellent poems, sign off and is a jack-of-all trades. So does he love carrots and photography.
Follow upsAkshay is following up earnestly. Who??? The question remains to be answered.
Forecasting Unlike multicasting, seems something a little too different and difficult.
LinkersThe grapevine club will help him link facts with gossip.
BytesBite on the juiciest carrot for the photography club president.

Breaking news (From Akshay’s hostel room): A fragrant white flower entangled in the gardens of a Saaavan. (H is twice silent)
Err… Pardon, that was flash news.

Ambient sound:Akshayyyyyyyy, PTCcccc pleaseeee, Nikhitaaaaaaaa, PTCcccc pleaseeee, (Repeated loudly in different voices and umpteen times)
Interviews & bytes- Akshay steps out of the door and oooohh lalala!!! The snake never bites unless provoked. Isn’t Akshay, the Mr. Charmer!!
Visual 1: A Smiling director.

Akshay goes home:
Asks for the collar mike after wearing his shirt and starts speaking non-stop.

“Dad, am hungry, get me some from the stock”.

VO: (of AK’S BK dad) Bete, have breakfast.

Akshay: I just need a ‘byte’.

Tommy, his dog overhears and gives one sound-bite, so sweetly on the buttocks.
At mom’s persuasion, Akshay PTC agrees for breakfast, but with some conditions like

“Use cheese as filler, cut away the sides of the slice and if something still remains, I’ll eat it”
(While leaving home)
Sign off: Papa, Mama, This is Akshay, with cameraperson Rajesh, the TUM-BOL, signing off for college.

After effects:
Nightmares of breaking stories & breaking news.
With various sounds, Akshay shakes.
No commercial breaks for the ad professional and so everything is breaking for Akshay PTC
After some days, it will be graphics alone. Even the present bones and skin would give way.
Akshay hears words like lapel, boom, gun, and he cries out loud: pleezzze don’t shoot me.
UKC uncle: No no, Akshay, this is not the war front. These are mikes and we are shooting videos.
Ohh gosh… please sign out… Err sign off
