We asked 3 people to watch our Documentary so we could get feedback on their opinion.
We let them watch it then asked them 7 questions to find out what they thought. The questions were:
*What do you think of the mise-en-scene in the frame?
*What do you think the strengths were in the documentary?
*What do you think the weaknesses were in the documentary?
*What would you improve in the documentary?
*Do you think it followed the codes and conventions of a documentary?
*Did you find the documentary informative?
*Do you think the documentary gave a fair arguement?
Here was our result...

Voiceover Character Profile - Adele Kyriacou
Today we tracked down the elusive Andy Popperwell to be the narrator of our documentary, and it sounds fantastic as he has recieved pronounciation and uses standard english. And that is precisely why we chose to use him. He speaks with such elegance and puts emphasis on words at the right places that are typical of a documentary. It gives a sense of formality to the documentary that would otherwise be scarce as it is filmed, edited and directed by three amateurs. We did write quite alot of material for our voiceover and Andy was quite stunned at the amount but, we wanted to make sure we had more than enough to be on the safe side. Because whilst editing, i can change my mind at different times with what approach i want to go about with.
We are very happy that we were able to use him, the only thing is, i have leanred that a lot of people are also thinking of using him for the same advantages we did. We do like to take a different approach to things rather than the typical components people are using with their documentary, but because he is simply so fantastic who can refuse! We will sure enough buy him a card to show our thanks once this is all over!

Week 11 - Katie Geraghty
Now we have all of our footage, we have begun working on our radio trailers. We are now doing radio trailers individually as this is more beneficial when it comes to marking and would be too hard to separate our roles.
We're also finalising our drafts of our posters and getting up to date with our paperwork, aswell as starting our evaluations.
