Documentary | New Unit

Following on from our second unit, directions, we have started our third unit of the year, which is documentary. In this unit we have been given the task to create a documentary.

Documentary

We are working in a group of 3 - Me, Nisserin and Sammi - and we will need to produce a 10 minute documentary on wildlife and nature. The documentary will be part of a strand with the working title of 'Doorstep Wilderness'. It must be suitable for viewing at 8pm on UKTV wildlife and science channel 'Eden'.
The series aim is to engage and inspire a diverse audience with science and wildlife stories. We must be surprising and we should look beyond what we imagine wildlife and nature to be like. Consider contemporary, relevant stories and try to think beyond the obvious.

The 5 main things we should consider are:

1. Consider the information given carefully
2. The duration of the video, transmission time, the channel and the intended audience
3. What format, style and mechanisms we will decide to go for
4. All films must include appropriate planning for shooting sequences, set ups, GVs and actuality.
5. The film is delivered within the specified time frame.
