The
objective
of
this
task
is
to
evaluate
my
final
documentary
in
relation
to
past
and
current
practise.
I
have
watched
a
number
of
documentaries
and
will
use
them
to
compare
the
different
styles,
mode
of
address
and
conventions
used.
The
documentaries
I
have
watched
are:
The
imposter:
2012,
Biggie
and
Tupac
Broomfield:
2002,
Teen
dad
(MTV
Series).

2. 2
The
content
of
my
documentary
is
a
story
about
a
young
man
(Nathan)
who
is
about
to
become
a
father.
The
documentary
follows
the
Nathan
throughout
his
partner’s
pregnancy
to
show
how
he
copes
with
the
realisation
and
responsibility
of
becoming
a
young
father
in
London
and
prioritising
between
getting
a
job,
going
to
college
and
his
relationship
with
his
family,
friends
and
partner.
Regarding
content,
my
documentary
is
similar
to
a
series
I
watched
prior
to
making
my
documentary
about
Teen
dads.
The
series
was
on
MTV
and
was
following
a
number
of
young
dads
in
their
day-­‐to-­‐day
life
after
having
a
child,
some
of
the
dads
had
3
year
old
children
and
some
had
a
baby
under
the
age
of
1.
The
content
of
the
MTV
series
was
about
how
young
men
deal
with
the
responsibilities
of
being
a
father
after
they
have
had
the
child
and
how
their
life
has
changed.
Although
this
is
a
similar
theme
my
documentary
was
more
about
going
from
life
before
having
a
child
and
how
a
teenager
can
grow
into
a
responsible
adult
in
a
short
amount
of
time
to
prepare
for
being
a
father.
In
my
documentary
I
also
didn’t
include
Nathans
partner
in
the
documentary,
as
I
wanted
it
to
be
almost
solely
from
Nathans
perspective.
Therefore
this
would
appeal
more
to
a
male
audience.
My
documentary
is
shown
in
chronological
order.
It
begins
with
an
interview
with
Nathan
to
introduce
him
and
his
story.
This
interview
was
filmed
first
and

3. 3
as
the
documentary
went
along
I
met
up
with
Nathan
frequently
to
catch
up
and
find
out
how
he’d
been
doing,
how
is
partners
pregnancy
was
going
and
to
find
out
everything
else
about
other
aspects
and
issues
that
are
occurring
in
his
life.
The
end
of
the
documentary
is
the
last
time
I
met
with
Nathan
and
is
the
closest
time
to
his
baby
being
due.
Biggie
and
Tupac
(Broomfield
2002)
is
different
in
content
to
my
documentary
because
it
is
a
biographical
documentary
about
two
famous
rappers
who
were
murdered
in
the
late
nineties.
The
structure
is
also
very
different
to
my
documentary.
Biggie
and
Tupac
begins
with
the
death
of
the
two
main
characters
(Biggie
and
Tupac)
and
then
goes
back
in
time
to
tell
their
life
stories,
therefore
it
is
non-­‐linear
compared
to
my
documentary
which
is
in
chronological
order.
MTV’s
Teen
Dad
is
also
non-­‐linear
as
the
beginning
of
the
episode
introduces
the
teen
dads
and
their
children.
Then
we
learn
about
their
life
before
they
had
a
child,
the
episode
continues
to
tell
their
story.
The
Imposter
(2012)
is
a
feature
length
documentary,
which
is
dissimilar
to
my
documentary
as
it
is
only
5
minutes
long,
but
is
similar
to
Biggie
and
Tupac
as
it
is
also
a
feature
length
documentary.
The
Imposter
has
a
similar
structure
as
it
starts
with
the
beginning
of
the
story
where
a
young
boy
is
found
in
France
and
sent
to
an
orphanage.
This
is
similar
to
my
documentary
because
the
beginning
of
the
documentary
starts
with
the
beginning
of
the
story
and
goes
on
to
tell
the
story
in
chronological
order
all
the
way
through.
Both
my
documentary
and
The
Imposter
are
also
very
similar
because
they
both
intercut
between
main
interviews
with
prominent
figures
and
a
narrative,
In
my
documentary
I
meet
with
Nathan
and
interview
him,
it
then
cross
cuts
to
meeting
a
relative
or
friend
of
his
who
tell
the
audience
a
little
more
about
Nathan,
text
is
also
as
a
narrative
to
explain
to
the
audience
how
much
time
has
passed
between
interviews,
what
has
happened
that
has
not
been
shown
on
film
(e.g.
Nathan
arguing
with
his
partner
and
going
to
hospital
appointments)
and
also
to
introduce
new
people
into
the
documentary.
In
the
imposter
the
Main
character
is
a
man
called
Frédéric
Bourdin,
the
whole
documentary
revolves
around
him.
He
narrates
the
story
through
interview
and
speaks
over
reconstructions
to
give
the
audience
a
visual
of
the
factual
event.
There
are
interviews
with
the
family
of
the
young
boy
he
impersonated
as
well,
to
make
the
documentary
more
objective
and
to
tell
different
accounts
of
the
event.
ITV
4’s
Ian
Wright:
Nothing
to
something
is
a
documentary
telling
the
life
story
of
ex
Arsenal
striker
Ian
Wright.
The
documentary
starts
by
showing
Ian
Wright
playing
football
on
a
TV.
The
documentary
then
goes
on
to
show
Ian
Wright

4. 4
talking
about
where
his
family
descends
from.
As
the
image
below
shows
Ian
is
sitting
by
himself
in
a
dark
room,
this
is
the
main
interview
in
the
documentary
and
is
shown
in
black
and
white
throughout.
This
documentary
is
23
minutes
long
and
for
the
majority
of
it
Ian
Wright
is
talking
to
the
camera
in
the
same
interview
as
shown
below.
Throughout
Ian
speaks
about
his
upbringing
and
also
his
relationship
with
his
parents,
Ian
speaks
in
detail
about
his
childhood,
both
happy
and
unhappy
memories
he
has
of
his
mother,
step
father
and
his
father.
We
learn
that
his
mother
was
an
“abusive
alcoholic”
and
that
his
father
left
when
he
was
18
months
old.
The
documentary
goes
on
to
showing
Ian
talking
about
his
times
trying
to
become
a
professional
footballer
and
his
stuggle
to
find
a
club.
This
documentary
is
similar
to
mine
because
it
has
one
main
prominent
figure
throughout
and
has
a
main
interview
where
they
are
talking
about
growing
up,
this
is
similar
because
at
the
beginning
of
my
documentary
Nathan
speaks
about
his
family
and
his
childhood
in
the
main
interview
of
the
documentary.
Nothing
to
Something
is
also
structured
very
similarly
as
it
is
in
chronological
order.
Both
my
documentary
and
“Ian
Wright
-­‐Nothing
to
Something”
also
cross
cut
from
either
an
interview
or
archive
footage
to
the
prominent
figure
speaking
to
the
camera
again.
However
the
content
of
these
two
documentaries
is
very
dissimilar
in
many
ways
also.
Although
we
learn
about
both
Nathan
and
Ian’s
childhood
and
families
in
the
documentaries
the
topics
are
very
different,
“Nothing
to
Something”
is
all
about
how
Ian
Wright
became
one
of
the
most
successful
English
footballers
of
the
last
20
years
whilst
“College
with
a
Kid”
is
about
a
teenage
boy
who
is
having
a
baby
and
is
trying
to
become
a
responsible
adult.
“Nothing
to
Something”
is
one
long
interview
which
is
used
as
both
a
main
interview
and
an
introduction,
therefore
there
is
very
little
structure
in
terms
of
interviews,
and
the
whole
documentary
consists
of
Ian
speaking
to
a
camera,
then
a
cutaway
to
give
a
visual
of
what
he
is
talking
about.
Compared
with
my
documentary
this
is
very
different,
in
“College
with
a
Kid”
archive
footage
is
used
with
a
voice
over
as
an
introduction,
there
are
also
5
different
interviews
in
total
including
the
main
interview
and
text
is
used
in
between
each
interview
to
split
them
up
and
also
to
explain
to
the
audience
the
amount
of
time
that
has
gone
by
in
between.

5. 5
In
MTV’s
“Teen
Dad”
archive
footage
is
used
in
every
episode,
usually
at
the
beginning
when
introducing
the
teen
dad
and
their
partner.
The
archive
footage
is
of
pictures
of
the
couple
before
they
had
their
child
and
has
the
teen
dad
speaking
over
it
with
a
voice
over.
This
is
a
convention
I
also
chose
to
use
in
my
documentary
and
I
used
it
in
a
in
the
exact
same
way
as
both
documentaries
had
the
same
topic.
At
the
beginning
of
my
documentary
I
showed
pictures
of
Nathan
and
Mia
before
they
were
having
a
baby.
As
well
as
for
an
introduction
archive
footage
is
also
used
throughout
each
episode
as
a
cutaway
in
interviews
to
give
the
audience
a
visual.
I
also
used
achieve
footage
as
a
cutaway
in
my
interviews
however
the
contents
of
the
archive
footage
are
different.
In
one
of
my
interviews
I
used
achieve
footage
of
Nathan
Free
Running
when
he
was
speaking
about
his
hobbies
as
this
was
one
of
the
hobbies
he
was
speaking
about,
whereas
in
“Teen
Dad”
archive
footage
was
used
in-­‐between
interviews,
without
somebody
being
interviewed
speaking
over
the
top.
Nick
Broomfield
used
a
hand
held
camera
whilst
filming
“Biggie
and
Tupac”
a
lot.
This
is
because
many
of
the
interviews
were
not
organised
beforehand
and
sometimes
Broomfield
was
not
allowed
to
be
filming
in
the
locations
he
was.
This
gave
the
documentary
a
very
informal
style
however
I
think
it
was
used
effectively
both
as
Broomfield
managed
to
record
footage
that
otherwise
he
may
not
have
been
able
to,
e.g.
when
he
went
into
Biggie
Small’s
barber
shop
but
also
because
it
made
the
audience
feel
that
they
were
a
part
of
the
investigation
in
the
documentary.
In
my
documentary
I
filmed
all
of
my
interviews
with
a
tripod,
however,
when
filming
Nathan
on
his
skateboard
and
at
other
points
when
I
was
filming
things
for
cutaway
footage
in
the
documentary
I
used
the
hand-­‐held
camera
convention.
This
is
similar
to
Broomfield’s
use
of
the
hand-­‐held
camera
convention
because
we
both
used
the
convention
as
a
convenience
to
record
footage
quickly.

6. 6
Broomfield
used
a
voice
over
throughout
“Biggie
and
Tupac”
to
give
the
audience
updates
in
the
investigation
and
also
to
explain
where
he
was
going
and
why.
The
voice
over
was
used
as
Broomfield’s
sole
narrative.
This
is
dissimilar
to
the
way
in
which
I
used
a
voice
over.
I
used
a
voice
over
in
my
documentary
as
an
introduction
as
I
felt
this
would
be
the
best
way
to
introduce
the
topic
of
my
documentary
along
with
visuals.
I
didn’t
feel
a
voice
over
would
be
suitable
to
be
the
narrative
in
my
documentary
as
it
wasn’t
an
investigative
documentary
compared
to
“Biggie
and
Tupac”
which
is
very
much
an
investigative
documentary.
At
the
beginning
of
Broomfield’s
“Biggie
and
Tupac”
text
is
used
as
an
introduction
to
show
the
audience
the
topic
of
the
documentary
and
also
to
give
the
audience
some
knowledge
about
what
the
story
is
about.
This
is
the
only
time
text
is
used
in
the
documentary.
This
is
dissimilar
to
my
documentary
because
I
used
text
as
a
narrative
throughout
my
documentary
and
it
was
used
several
times.
I
chose
not
to
use
text
in
the
same
way
as
Broomfield
(
as
an
intro)
because
I
felt
that
it
would
benefit
the
audience
more
to
give
a
visual
of
the
prominent
characters
in
the
documentary
and
to
speak
over
the
visual
using
a
voice
over.
Archive
footage
is
also
used
throughout
the
documentary
because
the
two
prominent
figures
(Biggie
and
Tupac)
are
now
dead.
In
ITV4’s
“Ian
Wright:
Nothing
to
something”
archive
footage
is
a
recurring
convention
used
in
the
documentary.
Most
of
the
archive
footage
used
is
of
Ian
Wright
playing
football
for
either
Arsenal,
England
or
Crystal
Palace.
Achieve
footage
is
used
a
lot
when
Ian
is
speaking
about
a
particular
match
or
time
in
his
career
to
give
the
audience
a
visual
of
what
he
looked
like
playing
football
and
some
of
the
goals
scored,
there
is
also
a
part
in
the
documentary
when
Ian
is
speaking
about
his
former
team
mate
David
Rocastle
and
archive
footage
is
used
to
show
Rocastle
playing
football.
This
is
similar
to
my
documentary
because
in
the
main
interview
achieve
footage
is
shown
to
keep
the
audience
interested
and
to
give
a
visual
of
what
is
being
spoken
about.

7. 7
I
used
technology
in
a
range
of
ways
in
the
research
and
planning
phase
in
the
production
of
my
documentary.
The
first
thing
I
did
when
researching
was
watch
Nick
Broomfield’s
Biggie
&
Tupac
on
YouTube,
this
was
to
learn
more
about
documentaries
and
the
conventions
used
in
them.
I
then
wrote
a
textual
analysis
using
Microsoft
Word
on
the
documentary
to
look
further
in
detail
at
how
each
convention
was
used
and
why
and
other
techniques
used
in
documentary-­‐
making.
I
then
watched
a
second
documentary
called
Last
Chance
High
by
Vice
and
wrote
a
textual
analysis
on
it
and
compared
it
to
Nick
Broomfield’s
Biggie
&
Tupac.
I
watched
Last
Chance
High
on
YouTube
also.
I
used
print
screen
a
lot
to
show
screen
grabs
as
evidence
throughout
each
textual
analysis.
I
also
completed
other
tasks
such
as
writing
about
and
comparing
legal
and
ethical
issues
when
producing
a
documentary
using
Microsoft
PowerPoint
and
I
also
used
Prezi
when
I
created
a
pitch
for
my
3
initial
ideas.
All
of
this
work
has
been
blogged
on
Wix,
this
is
so
that
all
of
my
preproduction
paper
work
is
in
the
same
place
and
is
easily
accessible.
I
used
my
Samsung
Galaxy
S3
to
contact
potential
interviewee’s
via
Facebook
and
WhatsApp
messenger.
I
also
used
a
flip
cam
and
a
Nikon
DSLR
camera
when
recording
a
re-­‐enactment
of
the
Paul
McCartney
interview
with
Nick
Frost
which
we
originally
found
on
YouTube.
I
watched
a
documentary
called
“Benefits
Street”
on
4OD
and
“The
Magaluef
Weekender”
on
the
ITV
player,
I
also
watched
“Safe
Sex
in
the
City”
on
the
BBC
iPlayer.
I
also
saved
my
work
on
the
iMac
server
at
school
to
keep
it
safe.
I
used
Sound
Cloud
to
find
music
without
copyrights
and
Google
to
research
the
laws
on
copyrights.

8. 8
In
the
production
stage
of
my
documentary
I
used
my
phone
a
lot
to
contact
the
people
I
would
be
interviewing,
I
used
Facebook
chat,
Twitter
and
Whatsapp
messenger
to
contact
them.
I
used
a
Nikon
DSLR
camera
to
film
all
of
my
interviews
and
used
an
SD
card
to
store
all
of
the
footage
on,
I
would
transfer
the
footage
from
the
SD
card
to
the
iMac
server
and
then
delete
it
off
of
the
SD
card
to
free
space
for
more
footage.
I
used
an
in
built
mic
in
the
iMac
to
record
a
voice
over
and
I
edited
on
final
cut.
To
edit
the
documentary
I
first
used
Facebook
to
find
multiple
pictures
of
Nathan
and
his
partner
Mia
to
use
archive
footage.
I
then
imported
each
picture
individually
and
cut
the
length
that
each
picture
would
show
in
the
documentary
using
the
cut
tool.
I
added
my
voice
over
to
this
so
that
when
it
played
the
viewer
would
hear
my
voice
but
see
the
pictures
of
Nathan
and
Mia.
I
then
rendered
the
footage
so
that
it
was
viewable.
I
imported
all
my
other
footage
I
had
filmed
then
I
watched
each
individual
clip
to
see
which
ones
I
would
be
using
in
my
documentary.
After
I
had
chosen
which
clips
to
use
I
added
them
to
the
timeline
and
cut
them
so
that
there
was
no
unnecessary
parts.
I
used
effects
such
as
fade
in/out
to
link
the
clips
together.
I
also
used
Text
in
my
documentary
and
added
music
which
I
had
found
on
Sound
Cloud,
I
then
cut
the
music
to
fit
in
with
the
length
of
the
text.
I
had
to
render
each
clip
after
I
cut
it
to
view
it.
The
last
thing
I
did
was
add
the
Vlogs
which
Nathan
had
emailed
me
which
were
recorded
on
his
Mac’s
Photobooth.
After
this
I
exported
the
movie.
In
every
documentary
the
conventions
used
and
the
way
they
are
used
will
ultimately
have
the
outcome
of
what
style
the
documentary
is.
In
the
first
Documentary
I
watched
Nick
Broomfield:
Biggie
&
Tupac
(2002)
the
way
the
whole
documentary
was
structured
(Chronologically)
and
the
conventions
used,
such
as
the
use
of
a
hand
held
camera
and
the
scripted
interviews
gave
the
documentary
an
investigative
style,
this
is
shown
throughout
as
the
topic
of
the
documentary
is
about
investigating
different
conspiracies
into
the
deaths
of
rappers;
Biggie
Smalls
and
Tupac
Shakur.
The
use
of
a
presenter
also
allows
the
views
to
follow
the
investigation
with
the
presenter
allowing
them
to
form
their
own
opinion
on
what
really
happened.
MTV’s
Teen
Dad
is
has
a
fly
on
the
wall
style.
The
voice
over
throughout
is
narrated
by
the
“Teen
Dad”
who
the
show
is
about
and
as
the
show
goes
on
we
follow
the
young
dad
through
their
day-­‐to-­‐day
life
meeting
their
family
and
friends.
There
is
no
presenter
which
adds
a
sense
of
realism
and
the
way
the
interviews
are
conducted
without
any
noddies
or
the
viewer
hearing
the
questions
asks
allows
the
viewer
to
relate
to
the
character.
The
use
of
archive
footage
also
allows
the
target
audience
to
relate
because
the
target
audience
is

9. 9
teenagers
who
are
still
in
school
and
at
the
beginning
of
every
episode
we
see
pictures
of
the
young
parents
together
in
school.
ITV
4’s:
Ian
Wright
Nothing
to
Something
is
an
autobiographical
documentary.
Ian
Wright
narrates
to
the
viewers
about
his
life
in
one
long
interview
but
cutaways
have
been
used
to
show
archive
footage
throughout
whenever
Wright
is
talking
about
a
particular
instance
in
his
career,
the
audience
can
see
a
visual
of
what
he
is
talking
about
e.g.
a
special
goal
he
scored
and
they
can
also
hear
him
talking
about
it
through
a
voice
over.
The
lighting
is
very
dark
and
the
mise
en
scene
is
very
empty
allowing
the
viewer
to
solely
pay
attention
to
Ian
Wright
and
what
he
has
to
say.
In
the
planning
stage
of
my
documentary
I
chose
to
use
a
fly
on
the
wall
style
of
documentary,
this
is
because
I
felt
that
following
Nathan
in
his
day
to
day
life
would
give
the
audience
a
real
look
into
what
it
is
like
for
a
young
man
in
college
to
become
a
dad.
However,
once
I
started
filming
and
editing
the
documentary
I
moved
away
slightly
from
this
style
as
I
didn’t
have
enough
time
to
film
to
follow
Nathan
around
for
a
prolonged
amount
of
time,
because
of
this
I
had
to
adapt
the
style
and
it
became
more
of
an
autobiographical/Investigative
Style.
Compared
to
the
documentaries
I
have
watched
during
the
research
stage
of
my
documentary
I
would
say
that
it
is
similar
to
both
ITV
4’s:
Ian
Wright
Nothing
to
Something
and
MTV’s
Teen
Dad.
This
is
because
throughout
the
documentary
Nathan
tells
the
audience
about
his
past
and
his
family
and
what
it
was
like
growing
up,
similarly
to
Ian
Wright
and
the
way
it
is
shown
is
similar
because
both
documentaries
use
interviews
and
cutaways
with
archive
footage.
As
the
topic
and
the
way
the
documentary
is
filmed
and
the
people
met
throughout
the
documentary
it
is
similar
to
MTV’s
Teen
Dad.
It
is
dissimilar
to
Nick
Broomfield’s:
Biggie
&
Tupac
(2002)
because
although
I
used
a
handheld
camera
to
film
some
parts
of
the
documentary
there
is
no
presenter
and
no
voice
over
used
to
narrate.
I
have
developed
this
genre
of
documentary
by
using
a
topic
which
has
never
been
shown
in
the
media
in
the
same
way.
MTV’s
Teen
Dad
has
a
very
similar
topic
and
genre
in
that
both
documentaries
are
about
young
dads
however,
MTV’s
Teen
Dad
follows
both
the
mother
and
father
in
each
episode
whereas
the
documentary
I
have
made
does
not
include
the
mother
at
all.
I
could
not
find
any
other
documentaries
about
young
dads
in
England
on
YouTube
or
Vimeo.
This
makes
my
documentary
original
because
it
is
solely
about
the
Nathan
and
how
he
takes
on
the
responsibilities
of
becoming
a
father
at
such
an
early
age.
MTV’s
Teen
Dad
is
dissimilar
also
because
it
is
about
young
fathers
who
have
already
become
parents
whereas
Nathan
did
not
have
his
child
until
after
the
production
stage
of
the
documentary.
All
the
documentaries
I
watched
were
at
least
25
minutes
long.
MTV’s
Teen
Dad
was
the
shortest
at
25
minutes
per
episode
although
there
were
9
episodes
and
Nick
Broomfield’s:
Biggie
&
Tupac
(2002)
was
the
longest
lasting
1
hour
45
minutes.
The
documentary
I
produced
was
7
minutes
long.
I
will
distribute
my
documentary
through
YouTube
and
I
will
use
social
networking
sites
such
as
Facebook
and
Twitter
to
raise
awareness
of
it,
this
is

10. 10
because
I
don’t
have
any
money
to
put
into
the
distribution
of
it,
if
I
did
I
would
use
television
adverts
to
advertise
my
documentary
on
Channel
4,
BBC
3
and
MTV
as
all
of
these
channels
have
a
similar
target
audience
to
my
documentary.
All
of
the
documentaries
I
watched
in
the
research
stage
had
higher
budgets,
ITV
4’s:
Ian
Wright
Nothing
to
Something
was
advertised
during
and
after
football
matches,
this
is
because
Ian
Wright
is
an
ex
footballer
so
this
would
be
where
they
would
find
their
target
audience.
ITV
4
have
a
large
budget
and
can
afford
advertisement
on
TV.
MTV
also
have
a
large
amount
of
money
and
also
own
6
or
7
TV
channels
where
they
can
advertise
the
show.
They
mainly
advertised
“Teen
Dad”
on
their
channel
“MTV
1”
this
is
because
this
channel
in
particular
has
a
target
audience
of
young
people
and
therefore
it
would
catch
their
eye.
Nick
Broomfield’s:
Biggie
and
Tupac
(2002)
had
a
smaller
budget
and
was
distributed
by
Lions
Gate
Entertainment
who
are
a
large
company.
The
documentary
was
sold
in
shops
on
DVD
and
a
lot
of
newspapers
such
as
the
New
York
Times
wrote
reviews
on
the
documentary.
Another
way
I
could
distribute
my
documentary
would
be
to
send
it
to
local
newspapers
such
as
the
“South
London
Press”
and
also
enter
into
young
film
maker
competitions.
The
Imposter
(2012)
was
distributed
at
movie
conventions
and
festivals
where
newspapers
and
other
social
media
people
such
as
bloggers
could
watch
and
review
the
documentary,
this
would
publicise
the
documentary
and
allow
more
people
to
see
it.
The
Imposter
was
also
released
on
a
popular
documentary
website
for
24hours
to
view
for
free,
this
gave
the
documentary
media
attention,
and
the
documentary
was
also
shown
across
England
in
“Picture
Houses’”
Overall
I
feel
that
my
documentary
was
original,
it
had
similar
content
and
a
similar
subject
to
MTV’s
“Teen
Dad”,
however
it
was
not
the
same
as
I
did
not
include
both
the
young
mother
and
father
and
instead
focused
on
the
young
father,
the
filming
of
this
documentary
was
also
carried
out
during
the
pregnancy
of
the
mother
whereas
MTV’s
“Teen
Dad”
only
showed
young
dads
who
had
children
aged
1-­‐4.
Watching
all
of
the
documentaries
written
about
above
and
others
that
I
have
watched
previously
helped
me
decide
on
what
conventions
to
use,
such
as
text
as
a
narrative,
similarly
to
how
Nick
Broomfield
used
in
in
“Biggie
and
Tupac
2002”
at
the
beginning
of
his
documentary.
I
also
used
still
images
of
Nathan
and
his
partner
Mia
in
the
beginning
of
the
documentary
similarly
to
how
MTV’s”
Teen
Dad”
did
with
a
voice
over
spoken
over
it,
however,
I
was
the
person
speaking
in
my
voice
over
whereas
the
young
father
in
MTV’s
“
Teen
Dad”
was
the
one
speaking
in
that
voice
over.
I
also
used
some
conventions
which
I
did
not
see
in
any
of
the
documentaries
I
watched
such
as
“Vlogs”.
I
used
Vlogs
as
a
narrative
in
some
parts
of
my
documentary
to
allow
Nathan
to
tell
the
audience
what
he
had
been
doing
and
how
much
time
had
passed
since
we
last
met
up.
The
technology
I
used
was
similar
to
what
was
used
in
Nick
Broomfield’s
“Biggie
&
Tupac
2002”
however,
seeing
as
his
documentary
was
filmed
in
2002and
mine
was
filmed
in
2014,
I
probably
used
a
better
quality
hand
held
camera,
although
in
staged
interviews
Broomfield
had
more
equipment
such
as
a
“Boom
mic”.
As
“The
Imposter”,
ITV’s
“Ian
Wright
Nothing
to
Something”
and
MTV’s
“Teen
Dad”
are
more
recent
they
probably
used
high
quality
cameras
and
editing
equipment.

11. 11
The
style
of
my
documentary
was
different
in
some
aspects
because
I
feel
that
I
my
documentary
did
not
have
one
style
in
particular
unlike
Nick
Broomfield’s”
Biggie
&
Tupac
2002”
and
“The
Imposter”
which
were
both
investigative.
A
main
factor
which
makes
my
documentary
different
to
all
the
others
I
watched
was
the
length.
My
documentary
is
only
7
minutes
long
and
because
of
this
I
couldn’t
have
as
much
content
as
the
others
this
greatly
affected
my
work
and
if
I
could
do
it
again
and
make
it
longer
I
would
because
I
think
it
would
give
me
a
chance
to
show
the
wider
picture,
which
is
about
how
young
dads
are
shown
through
the
media
and
maybe
Would
be
able
to
not
just
focus
on
Nathan
himself,
I
think
this
would
allow
me
to
target
a
wider
audience
and
gain
more
publicity.
