My Crew Role.
I am going to the take the role as an director but I am also sharing this role with Emma Cosgrove. The responsibilties I have to take is, make sure the actors understand the role that they are doing, incase they will get confused. I am also responsible to create the story board and the shooting, for the assistant director understand, what this current scene is about and how I would like it to look.
For my group, I will need to make sure that have a clear understanding on what is going on, and that they understand how I would like the actress to be standing at a certain time because I want them to follow the story bopard exactly how it is lay out, but with a lot more detail.
I need to work closely with Emma Cosgrove, because we are both sharing the role of being a director, and to make sure we both agree on how we would want it to be set out, we can combine more ideas together, the ones we feel happy about.

Comparision
The device I am going to discuss is quality of footage; we
see this in the documentary when the quality looks HD (high definition). This
makes the audience think that it is very interesting the quality so they can
see the full action of the animals on what they do, and the colours which are
nice and bright. High definition has been used to make it effective with the
close ups. This shows us that a lot of people would find this more appealing if
it had amazing quality for everyone to watch and that’s how the producers would
get more viewers. This would appeal to the people who are adults, children and
people who would like/need to find out more information about a certain animal this
is because a lot of adults who would like to see what is going on in outside
world or who are in love with animals. On the other hand, in a mockumentary we
see the quality not in HD we see it in a bit of poor quality, for example we
see this when, they made the filming seem real by instead of matching it with what
the character is doing they move the camera very quick like it was not planned
so it is a bit scruffy. This wants us to think that this a real life story
about this certain person, with no script included and make the audience feel
interested in a sort of way.
The second device I will be discussing is observation shot;
they use different shot type, in the mockumentary they use Long shot because in
the scene when the teenagers from Summer height high get into trouble and they
have to go to the teachers office the camera person cannot go inside because it
is a private talk and the camera people and not supposed to be filming so in
order for us to see they had to film from the classroom glass/window. This
makes the audience think that this show is very interesting, getting an exclusive
view on what is going on; this shows us that to make it more believe able for
the audience to watch they use long shot. This would appeal to teenagers who
like to watch comedy, entertainment but not for children because they don’t use
suitable language for children under age to watch for adults it is more
suitable for them. However, on the documentary they use short shots because in
Life – David Attenborough the camera is going on up close without anything
having to be private or exclusive but we are looking over the shoulder say for
example we this when the African men are collecting some honey, he is looking
there should to see what is going on and telling the audience of the steps that
they do because he wants to avoid the bee’s. This shows us that he is
protecting us and letting us see it at the same time. The audience would feel
very interested because they are learning what other culture’s do to collect
food but maybe at the same time a bit nervous because anything could happen.
This device is used similarly because the documentary and the mockumentary use
related shot type but not entirely the same
The third Device I will be talking about is interviews and
narrator, the documentary ‘Tribe- with Bruce Perry’ they have used realistic
narrating skills to let the audience who is watching it, know every detail of
what he can see because the audience cannot clearly see everything that is
happening. This would make the audience feel interested about this because,
although they cannot clearly see what is going on, the description and the way
it has been said brings a lot of tension. The reason why it says a lot of ‘erm’
is because parry is trying to describe and look at the same time on what is
going on at the current scene. For the Mockumentary which is ‘Summer Heights
High’ their speech is very informal, and their body attitude. The reason why we
can’t hear the interviewer is because there is no interviewer, everything is
scripted and unrealistic, so there is no point of have an interviewer.

Evaluation
What was your
presentation on?
My presentation was about a mockumentary called ‘The life of
Alexia Demond’ and the presentation had basic information about what the
mockumentary was about, it included the target audience, which I had done.
What section of the
presentation did you plan?
The section of the presentation I had planned was, about the
target audience. I included what age we want this mockumentary to be towards
and only small bullet points about what this show is about.
What skills did you
use when you stood in front of the class when you delivered your presentation?
The skill I used to present my presentation was my communicating
skills because, while trying to show the audience what the mockumentary will be
about, I had to interact with them so I didn’t lose their attention, I also
used my body language, to show the audience some energy and not just standing
still while trying to make my mockumentary sound not interesting.
How did you feel
during the presentation?
At first I felt a bit worried because I felt that something
might go wrong during the presentation, but halfway through, I started to gain
confidence because I could some people in the audience are a little bit
interested about what this mockumentary is about, in order for me to improve
this I need to gain confidence from the beginning because, if I don’t feel
confident from the start I may not gain any confidence during the presentation.
