Storyboard



Title Ideas

Having a documentary my title will be straight forward. The documentary itself will be called Are Bollywood Films Relevant to NRI audiences? Therefore there will be no confusion as to what the documentary will be about. I'am following the way Channel 4 name their documentaries therefore I will not need any ideas.So this process is eliminated for me.

Production Log

I have made my decision of where I want to make my documentary. I feel the subject is to broad in order to be put in the first 5 minutes of beginning. I feel my coursework so far is going on task and I am learning a lot of new things while continuing on with my research. I have done my research for my ancillary task and know understand the codes and conventions better and what to follow when I will reach the stage to construct my ancillary tasks. Other than that I am happy with the way things are going so far! Hopefully they stay that way.

Analysis of Newspaper Advertisements


Script Development Draft 2

Since my documentary will not be from the beginning like initially planned as I changed my idea around to doing my documentary 5 minutes somewhere in the middle I have decided to just plan out my voice overs and let the actors I will be filming improvise their answers giving the professional look to my documentary as that's what expository documentaries seem to do. So after scraping my script here are the voice overs I have created for each of introduction of my characters.

Voiceovers

The Voiceovers will go in the same order as I have written them in the documentary. 


  • Both Mrs Patel and her daughter Amy love Bollywood films. They both find regular time to discuss them and watch them together. However do all NRI families share the same attitude as these two mother and daughter do? Or is this an generation aspect?

  • Safari Cinema is located in Harrow and only showcase Bollywood films. Mr Khan who has been working their for 20 years says Bollywood films have many important factors and that's what makes it one the most watched and desirable industries in the world. 

  • Living in the same community both Amy and Vanisha share different attitudes to Bollywood films. Amy who loves Bollywood films as we have previously seen, however Vanisha is the polar opposite and why is that so?

  • Weddings are a multi billion pound industry in the UK

Production Log

Having made a script and looking at 'typical' age group of certain character profiles I may need, I know
where my idea is heading. This is what I did in class and other work I need to complete is do some audience research and interview different people on 'What is a Bollywood film according to them' and ask more question on if they watch them and if they do then why and etc. This will give my documentary much more focus making the planning stage much more easier for me. I feel this may be a bit more harder to approach people and ask for an interview but other than that's all the work I want to complete before the end of this week. I feel I need more background information on documentaries maybe watching a few more documentaries may give me this reach. This will help me sharpen my knowledge and when I do come to planning my documentary things will become easier.
