Action Plan

All interview shooting must be completed by 25/04/15 to allow time for editing and any extra shots that may be required.

Music and Found footage will be sourced from youtube, with additional footage from own videos, tapes etc.

I Plan to finish Editing by Monday the 4th of May to allow my documentary to be reviewed, so I can gain feedback and make any improvements necessary.   

Personnel and Resources

Potential interviewee's:

Andrea Mcpherson - Some one who agrees with my views on 'Have we got life wrong' and is also living in the situation, therefore I think she is a good person to interview as she can give an insight into the way she lives.

Abe Abdalla - A person who fits most people's ideology in terms of working life, he works for himself in his own profession but is it all that it's made out to be? 

Equipment required

Camera
Tripod
- Both supplied by my-self

Technical/Editing

I will be using Adobe Premiere to edit the documentary as the files are easily transferable from system to system, allowing me to edit on any computer. Also I feel there are more editing tools to use on Premiere, therefore resulting in me having a better quality production overall.

Initial ideas

Part A-
Religion
Racism/Racial stereo types
Life/The system

Part B- Research

Part C- Initial ideas

Religion

I want to question religion, it's origins and why there are so many different religions, they can't all be right. For me and many other people they are bought up being told what to believe.

Racism/Racist stereotypes

It's the 21st century and apparently we're all considered to be equal, no matter what colour, race or religion. But do individuals actually feel this is true, I want to find out about people's experiences with racism, and why it even still  exists?


Life/The system

We live in a world where we are controlled by people of higher authority, but who are they? Who gave them this power over us? Why do we just let them controll us?
Are we stuck in a continuos man-made loop where we work and die, a world where we work just to survive? Is this really what life is about, have we ruined it for our selves.

Telephone interview

Analysing Telephone Interview techniques

    This interview was for capital xtra, with " " and Jhene Aiko. This was  a very light hearted interview whereby Jhene was able to talk about her experiences on tour and performances with other artists, I feel this interview was more for justification purposes as Jhene was asked about her relationships with drake, an her opinions on other artists and what other fans think. 

       Most of the questions were very open , however also direct and suggestive as each question almost directed Jhene to give a certain answer, or within a particular subject matter.

      The use of tone from the interviewer was very inviting, as she sounded intrested in what Jhene had to say and also in the way in which she asked the questions., therefore she was easily able to obtain information and Jhene was quite open.

Task 2: Welcome to Rio

Welcome to Rio is a three-part observational series about the favela's in Rio De Janeiro, this documentary was broadcast on BBC2 during may and june 2014.

The first episode 'peace' follows two men, Rocky who is not your ordinary delievery man who carries anything from fridges to ovens on his back up the steep stair cases of the favela, just to support his family. Also Acme who is a graffiti artist living in the same favela, they are shown goinng about their day to day lives, and also dealing with the threats of the drug traffickers and pacification by the goverment.

The second episode 'war' looks at two diiferent favela's, Complexo da Maré and Complexo do Lins  to see the effects of the drug controlled favelas being pacified by the goverment for the world cup and  the olympic games.

Finally there third episode 'Ingenuity' shows a variety of characters and their different ways of surviving in Rio's poorest areas.

This documentary was made to show the way that the building of the world cup stadium and olympic stadium was effecting the poorer people in Rio, who live in the favela's. The Goverment wanted to take control of the favela's and pacify them to make them safe for tourist, however this documentary shows how it's effecting the residents and what they're doing about it.
By giving an insight into the personal lives of the people living in the favela's the audience is able to gain an understanding of what its like living here.

This documentary was an observational documentary as the the makers follow the subjects around and enable us to watch what they are doing, whilst also providing factual information through the narrative.

I think the target audience would be British between the ages 20-30 and most likely male as this documentary shows the effect the world cup is having on people living in Rio, and many British men around this time would be interesting in going to Rio in order to watch the world cup, not knowing how it's affecting local residents.
