Introduction
For my A2 Media course, i am going to be looking into documentaries and explore the different types and forms as well as researching documentary makers such as Michael Moore, Louix Theroux and Nick Broomfield. For our Main task, I will eventually be creating my own documentary aimed at specific audience so it is important to record my progress in research and development on this blog.
What are the purposes of a Documentaries?
Documentaries analyse or interrogate real life situations giving viewers entertainment and ways to express their views and opinions. They can Record, reveal or preserve and can also Persuade or promote viewers to something.
What are the types?
The types of Documentaries are:
- Reflexive = the film maker acknowledges their presence, sometimes infront of camera and give some narrative guidance.
- Poetic = artistic narrative is constructed, sometimes the topic is more human interest rather than current afairs.
- Observational = being there as events unfold, tend to follow a person or event and document their journey.
- Expository = analysis and exposition of person or topic, Michael Moore exposes society to forms or political corruption.
