Evaluation

A)

For My production process I had a production schedule for when I was going to film for my documentary and I had been given the month of January to film everything but if i'm being honest I did not stick to it very well, even though I had filmed most of it before we needed to start editing I needed to re shoot some things which meant that editing would take longer.

B)

During pre-production I had decided to get some vox pops for my documentary but when it came to filming time during the production stage I completely scrapped the idea of getting them. I also decided during production that I might get 2 interviews, one of them being with my mum which I did end up getting and then the other one with someone who worked with modern technology quite a lot but I didn't do that because I couldn't find a second interviewee that could do filming.

C)

A revision I made during post production was to get some footage of teenagers using modern technology to go other the teen segment audio for 2 reasons, one of them being the teen segments visuals were not good enough and the second being that it created information with visuals of what I was talking about in a way and that for me was a better option.

D)

For the technical qualities there was one bit where I decided to shoot with my phone which was for when the teenagers were using  modern technology and I felt that was better because it felt right when filming compare to walking round with a camera and it also fit in with the concept of modern technology more than a camera. I know a camera is modern technology but I would say the phone I used is more advanced.

E)

The aesthetic for my documentary was different to what I wanted at the start of this unit as I wanted to have a glitch feel to everything but I decided to scrap that however I did still have a glitch effect in there. Also I had planned to have some deep music but I ended up having more of an upbeat soundtrack but  there was a bit of deep music with the glitch effect which was my intro.


F)

I only had a month to film my footage and most of it I planned to do towards the end of the month which I probably shouldn't have done as I didn't get all of it done and that meant I had to shoot more after that time which meant I didn't have as long to edit as I had hoped to. I feel if I spaced my filming more over the month I had for filming my production process would have been a lot better than it actually was.

G)

I think if I was able to get that interview I wanted with someone who works with Modern technology then my documentary would have been better as it would have had someone it in who had an advanced knowledge of the topic of the documentary, I also think that if I could have got help with filming I could have done vox pops as I would have had someone to film whilst I ask the questions but I was unable to get someone for the day I wanted to do the vox pops so I scrapped that idea as I said before. Personally I think I could have managed my time better as there were some days where I didn't do anything for my documentary like at weekends and I think if I did some work then I would have been able to improve my documentary a bit more.
