Esquire Double Page Spread

Esquire magazine article begins with a short description and drops the audience straight into the conversation using direct quotes and informal language. There is then a description of the directors apartment before the formal interview is shown through the use of bold headings.

Magazine front cover mock ups

 magazines I asked an audience what they thought about the different magazine covers. People suggested that the first magazine cover was more dynamic and more intresting. Therefore I feel that I am more likely to copy elements from the first magazine. They also highlighted that men would restrict the audience - therefore I considered changing the target audience of the magazine to The modern peoples magazine. However I feel that this would make the target audience too broad. 

Examples of yesterdays filming

The next step is to capture lots of B roll of photography development which will be cut over the interview. I then have to film the rest of the screenplay and organise an interview with the camera shop. One of the issues that I struggled with was the shape of the room/ The H shape made it very difficult to position equipment out of shot and have space which allowed the walls to be out of focus.

Aims & Intentions

This investigative documentary delves into memories, photographs, time, and what reality means. It follows the discovery of old forgotten photography stills and attempts to reunite them with their owner. But all is not quite as it seems. It's only when an investigator starts asking questions that this strange tale takes an even stranger turn. I will use the micro elements of sound, editing, mise en scene and camera to convey the meaning of my text, for example using close ups of a projector to create an intimate feeling between the audience and the photographs and therefore draw the audience into the topic of my documentary. I will use cuts between the interviews and secondary footage to create a visual narrative. I will also use non-diegetic sound to capture & add excitement to the documentary. Estab shot handheld Semiotics will be used in my documentary. I will use the signifier of the celluloid to signify nostalgia, journey & creativity. I will a...
