Today in class, we got a few tips on how to make our documentary more efficient and less like A Current Affair and more like a documentary.
- Documentary = more formal and authoritative
- You can make a documentary fun
- Cover up jump cuts with shots over the top, such as shots of the interviewer nodding
- Jump cuts to prove point more efficiently and to cover up when the interviewee stumbles
After school this afternoon, I am going to re-film the narrator shots as after looking through the shots I took of myself, I realised most of them were out of focus. This time I am going to ask someone at home to help me film by checking that all of the shots that I take of myself are in focus, etc. I am also going to film some more close ups of electronics.
On another note, we booked another interview for Thursday at 12pm with Steve from Headspace. We made it 12pm this time so that we have 20 minutes to set up for the interview before he arrived, giving us plenty of time to organise everything. This interview is for Eliza's third, however, a few questions from my third that relate to his role are going to be added in.
