What is the idea for your documentary? Idea idea for my documentary four culture in a digital age is the idea of how symptoms are becoming more and more easy to create due to how technology is advancing rapidly and how some films made with extremely low budgets are being seen as better than films with ones in the millions.  Ideas on content structure, sound, cinematography and mise en scene? For cinematography I want to create a nice looking orange glow to the documentary to show that it’s it’s welcoming welcoming and warm instead of cold. for Mise en scène keeping with the cinematography of warm colour tones I want to shoot it in my own room to show comparison between myself being able to create films and how a comedian is able to create an entire special called inside which was a Netflix special that won lots and lots of awards for being creative both in story wise and also through the cinematography being very colourful and bright but also very dark and depressing despite it sti...

  Audience profile An audience profile is a source for collecting data through surveys and primary research. Psychographics, demographics and social grade are essential to creating a audience profile. This Below is a social grade, a social grade is a chart that allows people to be categorised into different places based on that class and income.

Drones Drones over the last couple of years they have completely changed how films can be show and will be shot. Before drones were invented to only way to get shots of landscapes or cities from very high up would be to use a helicopter and this was basically impossible for people who were on a low budget but now drones have become the way to do establishing shots and shots of landscapes due to the fact that they are way more convenient and they are extremely more cheap to film with. when Im filming my documentary i can use drone footage as b footage for when its getting boring to view the a footage. 3D Cameras 3D cameras are a new kind of technology that allows filming in a complete 360 degrees. there isnt a lot of use for these cameras at the moment as to what kind of croud they appeal to is very niche as with a 360 video considerating in one place is a hard and impossible thing to do as there is always more things to look at since it because it goes all around your head.

Poetic Documentary   The poetic documentary is a specific genre of documentary that started becoming popular in the 1920s and a poetic documentary instead of focusing on a story with voice overs from a narrator. It more goes for the feel of a time period or place with only music and visuals and is often not chronological most of the time. A poetic documentaries goal is to invoke an emotional response from the audience without explaining what is happening in the footage being presented. Expository Documentary Expository documentaries are documentaries that quite obviously have a narrator that narrates over footage that is being shown to the a...
