General Documentary Research

I have decided to do soome research on famous documentaries and how they are put together. Looking at the techniques used such as camera angles and shots and fading in and out techniques, particular the idea of adding extra layers such as titles/name tags.

7 Up Series 1 Part 1

Charlie Brooker - How to make a news report





These are a variety of shots and features from the comedy video made by Charlie Brooker on how to make a news report. I hpe to recreate some of these features are they usually associated with documentaries. The extra editing of titles, facts and ficures in the feature also make it more interesting to the viewer. I hope to add shots of headlines and appropriate facts and options that there are within the education system. Talking head shots is also a very well known feature in documentaries, particularly from experts or people involved in the situation or who the topic may affect. In my case students and people who have been through the education system or work in it.
