In what ways does your media production use, develop or
challenge forms and conventions of media products?
� Adhered to several
conventions
� Interviews
� Establishing shots
� Followed an
argument

How did I challenge the conventions of a normal
documentary?
Through carefully choosing my library
footage I was able to manipulate my
interviewee¶s content to make the
viewer follow my argument

How effective is the combination of
the main product and ancillary textFor the ancillary texts to be successful they
must support the documentary.
This meant that they had to create the same
feelings as the documentary itself is designed
to.

Newspaper Advert
The newspaper advert allows the reader to
establish the genre and content of the
documentary before they had seen it

How does this compliment the documentary?
Highlights the
debate around
the subject of
the paranormal
to draw in reader
Darkened
around the
edges to
create spooky
effect
Old fashioned
writing a typical
convention of the
horror genre,
brightened to look
ghostly and to
attract attention
Emphasis on the
detail of the
tombstone to
draw attention to
the topic of the
documentary

Opinions and advice of Peers

How did you use media technologies in the construction
and research, planning and evaluation stages?

Construction
� Filmed on my own camera
� Use of effects on camera
� Use of transitions

Research
� I used the previously shownquestionnaire on my blog todiscover what my targetaudience want from adocumentary about the
paranormal.� Television programmes such
as Most Haunted and GhostHunters also follow a semidocumentary style structure soI learned a lot from these
shows such as establishingshots
Several point of view shots with
lots of movement giving theimpression of a chase

Research: Who is my documentary aimed at?
The target audience of my documentary has had a
large effect on the way I shot my documentary
and constructed ancillary texts. My documentary
would be shown on BBC 3. This channel isaimed at a young audience but still addresses
controversial issues.

Planning
The use of social media
sites such as Youtube
to find suitable
soundtracks andlibrary footage
Vital to planning as it
reinforced the
message of the
documentary

Evaluation
I compared my text to similar ones on Youtube
and professional documentaries
I used the blog to compare my objectives at the
beginning of the task against the final result of my task
