Preparation - Plans for Filming Documentary:
Genre:
The genre of our documentary is going to be based on some sort of Disabilitys,using types of style shown in main stream documentrys.The reason for choosing this is because we're interested in prosention this genre to show this issue to the audeince. I also believe that this genre is aimed for such a large audience that we have the protental to satife a large amount of TV audeinces.I personally have watched this type of viewing content and see so much that i feel i can exspore due to the fact i understand the ways they prosent things in this type of documentary style. I think as a pair we can achieve the conventions needed.
Things needed consist of:
- Realist home and everyday settings.
- suspence surrounding the issues need to have hidden asects.
- issues that have real effects on the audience.
- Action moments to capture the issues.
- entertainment value.
Respentations and conventions related to are product:
The first step in deveopling ideas and gathering reseach is have a idea of what you want to find out.It is important that you actually find out what you need but not gather erelevent imofrmations.This theroy can be appealed when reseaching and deveopling a piece of work.By following some of these conventions then you are covering key elements that make a product be apropate for its audeince.
Blumer and Katz theory:-The key elements are factors such as :
Hypodermic Needle Theory :-
The Hypodermic needle theory is also a very usful way of looking at media and appealing it to your work.
The "Hypodermic Needle Theory"People were assumed to be "uniformly controlled by their biologically based 'instincts' and that they react more or less uniformly to whatever 'stimuli' came along" . Hypodermic theory graphically assumes that the media's message is a bullet fired from the "media gun" into the viewer's "head".Similarly, the "Hypodermic Needle Model" uses the same idea of the "shooting" paradigm. It suggests that the media injects its messages straight into the passive audience .This passive audience is immediately affected by these messages. The public essentially cannot escape from the media's influence, and is therefore considered a "sitting duck" .Both models suggests that the media is vulnerable to the messages shot at them because of the limited communication tools and the studies of the media's effects on the masses at the time.
My Reseach In To The Documentry Of My Intrest And Relevent :-
In order to gain better ideas and a detailed plan of what i want to create within the documentry area of filming i want to garryer a detailed reseach data base to refer.I know that the one factor that i want to keep in my production is a element of reality in peoples lifes.Showing the life style of Indivials.
Reseach Into The Histroy Of Documentry :-
The PowerPoint slide below contains all the relvent Reseach into the Histroy of Documentry and what the actual conaltations of the Genre mean.
Link of Relevents into reseach regarding Documentrys :
World War 2 Documentary:
The link below is a great example of a older style documentry that is documenting about World War 2.The reason it is of relevents is due to the fact you can clean see a step backwards in terms of style within the documentry.The way they address their audience is very different to what you would adsect to see in modern documentrys.The editing is much more contained and slower.Rather than using a range of short clips to build up a sence of whats going on which you see in most modern documentrys , they use long hand held visiual more action types shoots.I think the main difference is the way they address the audience.

Styles and And different Types Of Documentrys :-
I have looked at the types of documentrys that are Imformentry based.I have initial started first at looking at documentrys that have a opening sqence of action that shows snippits from the actal Program that shows what will unfold.There is usally shots that show the issues that the program is about, so a argument or a interview.
I first looked at a TV documentry program called '' Tourettes I Swear I Can't Help It!!!''.This was a program that i found had a good style within it and showed a very good life refections of a issue that it was showing in the program.The program is all to do with the disablity of Tourettes and how it effects the peoples life that live with it.I have looked at this documentry becuase it convays the sytles that i want to draw out of these types of programs.
This is a link that shows a Highlighted version of the program that shows the key elements of the program that i am looking at.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McXPssyYlO0
