RESEARCH - Technology

We used a variety of technology to aid us with the production of our Documentary. The camera and tripod were basic and as a result easy to use and setup. we were easily able to set it all up in the required positons and shoot in the required time.

The editing software we used was that of which is used by alot of in major TV centers and therefore required us to look up alot of ways in which it can be used. As we were doing this we started to generate ideas on how our documentary would look. Most documentaries dont use alot of effects, instead they use quick fast cuts and voice/image overlays to make series more entertaining to watch.

Also music plays a massive part in capturing the attention of the viewers and backing your side of the argument/discussion. So we had to decide carefully what music was to be used. To do this we went through a series of pieces of music and discussed what sort of mood it emits, and whether it would fit with what our documentary is about.
