After filming the interview shots

I have filmed the interview section shots at the weekend, I have 30 minutes worth of footage that I have edited down to 3 minutes. I am going to combine the extra shots I have edited out of my documentary into a blooper/extra film. I think the interview shots went well as we did them all within two days of filming. Also, the acting and dramatic effect I wanted to portray went as I wanted it to go.

Before filming the locations shots:

I am going to start filming the location shots this weekend, I have chosen to film at a old prison- looking place near me as Bedford prison still hasn't got back to me. In terms of what I am filming this weekend; I am going to film the whole building in a long shot, close ups, low angle and the surroundings e.g. the forestry area around it and the gates. If the permission is granted at Bedford Prison, I am going to film aerial shots and long shots of the prison building, medium shots of signs, close ups and diverse angles. For filming this weekend, I am going to use a steadicam to create smooth fluid shots.

My Documentary

Evaluation: Magazine Listing

Evaluation: medium? How is it original?

In addition, the colours of the background are neutral tones and not too bold therefore, doesn't affect the visibility of the text for the reader. I think the colours of the background go really well with the text because it is mostly light grey/white with areas of bright colours highlighting the black text. At the bottom of the listing, I created the title 'Secrets Of A Serial Killer' in vibrant red font, which is boldly standing out from the listing as well as not covering the text. I think this adds a creepy and menacing element to the listing linking to my theme. Main image I chose a picture of the prisoner I'm using in the documentary because I feel as though it captures the priso...

Amy Winehouse documentary: 5 shot analysis

This is a medium close up shot and a wide angle view capturing her substantial fan base on a worldwide level. The narrator is talking about how she tries to disappear from her life which could imply through her substance addiction and abuse which correlates with the shot as it shows her drinking. Amy looks slightly disoriented/dazed which matches the narration perfectly mediating her in a very negative light. In this shot, the lighting is very dark and dull which is unusual because when she is performing the lighting should be bright and vibrant. The mise en scene is the crowds of people in the background which highlights Amy's pure popularity through her talent. I feel as though Amy is the focus in this shot as the dark lighting makes her boldly stand out against the crowd. The shot slowly fades out as the background soundtrack of Amy quietens and fades which is very effective as it increases the intensity of audiences sympathy and sadness for her. This is a extreme close up...
