Production Concept: Idea and Production Company Name

After meeting with Ashley and discussing our visions, we decided that it would be a children's show that would be aired on Cbeebies which is an target age of 1-6, which means in the scripts there has to be a moral and an educational theme to the episode and story.
Idea
Originally Ashley always wanted a puppet for the show, and most of it was his vision - I just helped  a long the way. But the story is, a presenter and a puppet in a studio based show which would be 10 minutes long and there would be 6/7 episodes in a series. The show would explore different children's cultures whether it be, african, indian, british, french turkish ect. There would be a VT of the children in their homes and of their families being themselves - but just a look into these peoples life styles. After the VT we would go back to the studio with the presenter and puppet with this child we have seen on the VT and maybe seeing them teaching other children about their culture, whether it be teaching them how to wear something, make something, try the food ect.
Production Company Name
Strangely, we were given the idea for our production company name by thinking about when Ashley and I first met, which was at the time making jam sandwiches - for our "Journey of" day project, we made a minutes film of a journey of a jam sandwich, so we created the name Red Jelly Productions.. to find out that it had already been taken. Then thinking of the children's theme of the show we changed it to Yellow Jelly Productions - the theme of Cbeebies and a neutral colour we thought it would be more fitting.
