Due to our new topic of Documentaries, i have been conducting research into well known journalists such as Micheal Moore, Nick Broomfield & Louis Theroux.
For each of these, i have researched their filmed works to get a better understanding of how to direct our documentary and what shots would be useful.
I have studied Nick Broomfield's "Aileen: The Life and Death of a Serial Killer" which emphasised the strong tone and excellence of the documentary from the camera angles to the set up ofa shot.
Also i have looked at Louis Theroux's "The Most hate family In Ameria" and "When Louis Me the Nazi's" both of these documentaries kept the continuous narrative of a concerned tone including the camera shot of Theroux's face to the answers of a question.
Finally i have looked at Micheal Moore's "Farenheit 9/11" and "Bowling for Columbine" which proved to be very helpful with my research of other documentaries because of the difference in camera angles and movements from steady cameras to shaky, disorientaing shots which helped to differentiate the documentary from the other two.
