DOCUMENTARY UNIT
In this unit we are creating our own documentaries, due to COVID they have to be made at home, using our own equipment. On this blog page I have logged each stage of my work.
W/B- 15/02/21During half term this week, I have focused on collecting clips and pieces of film for the documentary. This has definitely been my favourite stage of the project so far. I can see my idea go from a storyboard, to a finished product! Collecting Clips Most of my film is going to be in the style of a desktop documentary, thus meaning that it won't physically be filmed by me, but instead screen captured and edited by me. Now that I am developing the idea of how loneliness in COVID effects mental health, I wanted my first clips to be personal to peoples stories of how they have felt during lockdown. After getting the appropriate release forms signed and completing the risk assessment, I asked a group of people to describe how isolation has made them feel in three words. Every single person I asked said loneliness- so these clips feel very appropriate to use and would work well for an introduction to my film. After gathering clips, I realised that when reaching out to people I didn't specify the orientation of the videos. Therefore some of the videos I received where portrait, rather than landscape, the video portion of these clips are now useless as they wouldn't fit into the frame. To overcome this issue I will have to isolate the sound from the video and use photographs or relevant video clips with it.
