The first step in my research for the Documentary Package task is researching every aspect of the project, understanding its conventions, and getting some inspiration. I will start by making a presentation that illustrates some important conventions for the documentary.
I made this presentation using the information I gathered from these links and past learnings from my teacher at school
This presentation helped me visualize what conventions I need to follow and how I could be able to implement them in my major Task.
Some conventions that I will use are those in Interviews, as I want to give a professional look by having mise-en-scene, the eye line of the interviewee in line with the top third of the frame, Cutaways, and a static camera. Also, the use of non-diegetic music will for sure be a part of my documentary.
