Interview With a Dog Walker

On Tuesday 9th October all three of us went out to film an interview with dog walker Stephen Williams. The interview went well although framing could have been better for it but we were able to arrange to film him the next day with one of the dogs he walks.

Formal Proposal For Documentary

In lesson we were told to come up with ideas and agree on final plans. These included the topic of documentary, the type and style of the documentary and the research needed to make it. Once we had discussed all our ideas we went through the positive and negatives of each idea.

 

Brainstorm of Content For Documentary

In the lesson we were told to come up possible content for our documentary. This resulted in a list of possible interviews that can be done, archive material that can be used, cutaways that we may film and the style of the voice over.

Target Audience Research

We had to create a questionnaire in order to gain audience feedback. The results to this will enable us to have a better understanding of what types of things people like and we can incorporate them into our production.
