Me and my A2 classmate, Sophie Tyacke-Norton, have decided to make a documentary for our media coursework for A2. We have already made the short documentary about teenagers shopping, and this means we have more ideas about what to do for the actual final documentary. We aim to make it around four to five minutes long, on the same topic on the other documentary, but we will make it much more in-depth and use many more statistics. To find out what people in our target audience (teenagers to young adults) would enjoy watching in a documentary such as the one we are making, we are going to film people's reactions and reviews of the documentary we have already made. This will help us to realise what could be improved upon for the new one, and also what was good in the old one and so we could find out what themes to continue into the new documentary. We will aim to film this over the period of a couple of weeks, and then use five to six weeks to find statistics, edit the film together and take out anything we don't find useful for our opening. Our audience feedback will take place before we start to film the documentary.
We have asked around and found a few people who are happy to be interviewed for the film, and this will take place in Sophie's house so we wouldn't need to get permission from any industry's. The actual filming of people shopping will probably take place in castle quay in banbury, in which case we will need to get signed permission to film there. We will also film in the high street in Banbury, which we don't need permission for as it is a public place and so therefore we don't need permission from any professional bodies in order to film there.
The aim of this documentary is to inform people on teenager's shopping and spending habits, and we think it will be a fairly universally interesting documentary because it has bits that appeal to a wide variety of people. By doing this, hopefully we will have a lot of people wanting to watch this. Along the way, we will show what we have already made to people and film their reviews and this will help us to improve the film.
The typography within this film will be the titles for the film and the statistics, and these will be done in a fairly simple font in order to keep the attention on the shot itself and not the font. The logistics to make this film seem good at the moment because we have a lot of people interested in being interviewed, an easily accessible place to film our main shots in a variety of angles and editing is easily accessible from school. We can use various books in the library and the internet to find our statistics, but we can also form our own when we find out information from our interviewees.
