Blog Task: Week 20

 I felt that my contribution during the pre-production and production of our documentary was extensive. As I was the producer, I was in charge of the majority of the pre-production paperwork. I did all that I was required to do and I felt that I did it to a high standard. I did receive some help from Ben, the director, with the pre-production paperwork, mainly with the distribution of forms for people to sign. Just because at the time I was doing the pre-production I had to spend a lot of time isolating, so he was a great help in distributing release forms. Hamdi and Tristan were also helpful in acquiring locations and our subject, each of them contributing significantly in this regard.

In production, I was also very involved. I attended every time we organised filming, just me and Hamdi, the cinematographer, attended every session of filming. Attendance was one of the main issues with our production, nobody but Hamdi and me attended every session, even our subject, Sam, was not at every session and this certainly held us back from being able to finish in good time. However, when everyone did attend, we were an excellent team and we worked well to create what I hope will be an excellent final documentary film.

Blog Task: Week 17

Participant  So it began in the autumn when I was 9. I was playing, as we did in those days, in the woods. All was well, the sky was grey but that was nothing unusual and we did not think anything of it. There was a wooden claiming frame, a sort of fort, where we played every lunchbreak and today would be no different.  It then began to rain, we understood; that's what happened sometimes when the sky was grey, there was nothing we could do so we kept on playing, taking cover underneath the fort. However, before we had time to concoct games that we could play in the rain, a huge bell, like the bell of an old town crier, rang loud and slow. We knew what this meant.  We ran for our lives, darting between the trees, following all the other children running as fast as they can through the forest to the place we all knew we needed to be. Because we ran, it was not long before we arrived at the entrance to the woodland, and when we arrived we organised into neat orderly lines, n...

Blog Task: Week 21

 My aspirations for the future revolve primarily around writing, as I plan to be a screenwriter. Whilst this does not directly pertain to documentary, the study of life and the intense focus on a singular subject is an incredibly useful set of skills for a writer to have. The observational, fly on the wall, idea of following a subject is directly related to writing as that is how the majority of film and tv exist. It has therefore been incredibly useful for me to study different documentaries and to see the different ways that different filmmakers have utilised the observational style in so many different ways. Documentary is also relevant to screenwriting because most documentaries are character-based, and the idea of doing a deep dive into one specific character and exploring a subject through a singular character is a very transferable skill and can definitely help with the quality and realism of my writing in a big way. 'Real-life people' or at least people who act like ...
