2. Topic:
We have decided to create our documentary on Make-up. As we feel it
will be a very interesting topic to cover. We also feel, that due to
family relations, interviews with professional make up consultants
and inspiring make up artists it will be easy to get a hold of, this
making it a relevant option, to why we have chose this topic.
There are many reasons as to why we find this certain topic eye
catching. Individuality is the main subject that jumped out at us, due
to the fact that each and every person who wears make up applies it
differently and chooses different brands etc. This also brought our
attention to the fact that women are not the only people to wear
make up, and that many men wear make up as well, and looking into
this for our documentary shall be very fascinating. In addition to
this, religion can also be a factor to as why various people may have
to or cannot wear make up. We would like to keep this documentary
very light hearted and humorous, contradicting this, we would like to
cover the topic of animal testing on products, and look into what
brands are against it and what brands use animal testing and why,
but yet keep this very brief.
3. Target audience:
We have carefully choose this specific target audience of, teenagers,
young adults and adults of the ages sixteen to thirty, this is because
the documentary does not apply to children as most children do not
wear make up, saying this, generations of young children are
becoming more and more sexualized and adult. This is mainly
through corruption of the media, and them wanting to become more
like their celebrity role models, as we will begin to talk about this in
our documentary also.
Mainly, we have chose this target audience because the art of make up
stereotypically applies to this category of age.
4. TV Scheduling
We have carefully looked over what certain programmes are on what
channels to decide what channel our documentary would appear on.
We chose channel 4 on a Tuesday at 20:00 as this is perfect time slot
for our documentary to appear on.
Our documentary pre-echo’s a popular TV programme, as we feel this
can be a resulting factor to gain more viewers on our documentary.
