Progress Report

During my research so far, I have been looking closely at the typical conventions of documentaries, newspaper advertisements and radio adverts. I have come the conclusion that I am confident in the conventions, editing techniques etc that are used in documentaries however need to focus more on the typical conventions of the two ancillary products. I need to do this because the two ancillary products will be extremely important in gaining an audience for the main product which is a documentary.
The style of documentary and advertisement (newspaper advertisement and radio advert) that I will be focusing on is a Channel 4 style as they have a simple style which works well with making a product stand out from others. My group and I are looking on creating a reflexive documentary so therefore we would need to carry a little more research on this specific type of documentary.

So far we have completed:
  • ·         Textual analysis for main product
  • ·         Textual analysis for each ancillary product
  • ·         Moodboard
  • ·         Questionnaire for main product



We have produced a questionnaire to allow us to find out what our target audience thinks of our topic and what they would normally expect from a documentary of a similar subject. Later on, we will be analysing the results so that we can take on board some opinions from our target audience.
