A-level- Planning outline

 Hey guys! In these blog posts I will be continue to brainstorm ideas and outline some planning techniques for my documentary. In this blog post, I will be creating an outline for how I want to structure my documentary production. 

INTRODUCTION

- Thinking about doing an opening transition/ some logo and animation work to show all the flags together

- Fun fact: during our group meeting, Zach made a contribution to my production pitch by suggesting that I should do a like wheel inspired animation to select or highlight a country. I know this may be confusing so I'm gonna show you guys an example.

Giving this kind of effect where a number or prize is selected. Obviously, substituting the number or prize with different Latin American and Caribbean flags.  

OPENING CLIPS 

- Indirect commentary about one of the interview questions from family members and tie it back to the main idea and plot. (Mostly music evolution)

- For these clips in need to include inserts of various subjects replying to the question in an organized way to make the answer make sense. 

- I definitely need to make sure I have a tripod/ stabilizer as well as learning how to shoot from different types of angles and cameras (will watch a youtube tutorial  on this). 

MIDDLE CLIPS 

- Most interviews will take place within the middle

- Choreographers, studio director and possible dancers interviewees will be featured

- Include a dance portion/ section highlighting latin american styles

- This section will require heavy filming, editing and location of the interviews/ production

ENDING CLIPS 

- Wrap up interviews and get subjects final thoughts on the topic of choice ( Latin american culture within music and dance)  

- This section requires heavy editing skills

- Maintain consistent with the use of location and background ( Switch up location) 

- Thinking about ending it with all of the subjects saying the word " Unity" ( Which is what I might call my documentary)
