Production research

Research  We all decided to do some research and come together on what we have found.We talked about  Search Results Ai Weiwei and his work with the Sunflower seeds at the turbine hall. we looked into him as we wanted our documentary to have an art element thought it and we felt that what Ai Weiwei done was brought people together and created a community of people who made Sunflower seeds which then became an installation. During our meeting, we talked about communities that had certain views on topics and how it can bring people together but also divide us. which made me think of this beer advert what I watched online. I was called  Heineken Worlds apart. The advert gets to people to meet that have the Opposite views as them and makes them build a friendship then shows them a video of their personal view and then they have the option to talk about the views over a beer or to walk away. There are a lot of adverts like...

Imagining reality, Community Documentary, Pre-Production

We stared this project by staring to talk about what ideas we all had for the documentary. I was unsure a first but i knew i wanted to question the idea of what is a documentry and push the boundaries on what a documenty is. I also wanted to do somethink that was experimental and had a art element to it. I then decided to draw my idea out as a storyboard to make it easyer for me to explain to my group what I was talking about. My ideas was to talk about the student community and how we feel as students. I know that a lot of us have views on student finance and how they esses how much we can have based on how much our parents earn and where we come from. Also why we have to pay over £9000 a year to learn when it used to be £3000. What is the differents from then to now its not like the teaching is different form then to now, tutors havent been trained any differently form then. so I thought about getting students to come together and create this giant ball and write what they feel. a...

Portrait photo shoot 2

Today I thought about maybe trying to get people to look into the camera but not knowing when I am going to take the photo of them. I found this quite hard as I still wanted to leave the shutter speed open longer to still show the idea of time and movement. So I decided to play music really loud so they couldnt hear the camrea. I did get some interesting shots of people, some people were playing with there hair getting ready for me to take there photo and some drinking their tea.
