In today's lesson we experimented with shots for our final documentary, these shots are aimed to be used when the interviewer is narrating facts, figures and opinions to the audience.
These shots also have to relate to the topic of the documentary as well, for instance for our draft Charlie has shot scenes of playgrounds, school corridors and school classes. Whilst these are running the narrator will be talking about a topic which will relate to the shot and documentary otherwise the audience will become confused and loose interest.
For our draft we have also experimented with music, again this is used to make the documentary more appealing to the audience. We have had to find a music clip that coincides with the tone of the documentary, for instance you can't have eerie music for a documentary about the origins of a music label. Instead you have to have music that relates to the topic just like the shots from the previous paragraph.
So for the documentary about the origins of a music label you would probably have music from bands owned by that label, for our documentary we have chosen music thats starts with screaming and laughing children and keeps an upbeat tune throughout the draft documentary, this music may change for the final documentary as the tone of the documentary may have changed, but the music will always relate to the topic.
