animated storyboard







Evaluation of my storyboard

I presented many diverse shots such as, close up, extreme close up, long shots, panning shots, high shots, low shots. I think this was effective as it built up a tense atmosphere and made my documentary more authentic by using shots that many of my inspired documentary examples use. I contrast close up shots and long shots because it creates suspension for the audience seeing conflicting shots of the prisoner's zoomed in face to a shot of the mise en scene to a long shot of the prisoner sitting in a isolated room. I decided to use a variety of shots exposing the harsh location and environment because it presents to the audience the harsh realities of prison life. I show different angles especially when it is shots of the prisoner in the interview because it characterises the prisoner in different light e.g. conveying her as evil and dominant or as vulnerable and suffering. 

 After creating my storyboard I decided that I wanted to do my interview with a black green screen as my background because I think it would look more professional and would match a crime documentary setting more. I think it would look more effective and realistic as many professional crime documentaries use a green screen to interview people. I may add shots of the canteen to portray that that's the prison's canteen and that is where the interview will be taking place. To improve the storyboard I would of added shots of the prisoner in front of a black green screen.
Also, due to permission for filming from the prison being too late so I may film at a nearby location near me that looks abandoned and a old prison.

Evaluation: Newspaper Advertisement

Evaluation: conventions Background I chose my background to be of prison bars because it clearly indicates to the audience the ideas, themes and genre my documentary is going to be focused around. I think the black and white effect connotes the dark realities of prison and how harsh and shocking the crime system is reflecting the themes presented in my documentary. In addition, I admire how well the background blends with the rest of the advertisement as it contrasts with the bold red title, ITV logo and my main image. Photo I decided to use a extreme close up shot of the prisoner's face from a clip of the documentary because it is zoomed in and focused on the prisoner's intense expression, which draws in the target audience. I increased colour contrast and changed the filter to a black and white effect, which looks effective because as it blends in with the background and imposes fear onto the reader.   Chose of layout I decided to place the m...
