Editing Documentary Clips

Seeing as our original interview material totalled to 20 minutes we have had to cut down dramatic amounts of footage to be able to keep the necessary material that will be helpful, such as positive and negative opinions about TV, so that we can still keep the remaining footage for back up resources as all the footage is relevant and useful.

We will be adding the clips from YouTube to the documentary but will only be making the clips a maximum of five seconds long and will only include three clips as a maximum both of good and bad viewing.

The general outline of the documentary is in place and we have the overall template for the documentary so that we can add the extra information in easily and think what more we could add to make the documentary as informative as possible.

Extra Research & Planning More

Currently the documentary is taking shape and looking optimistic for new material to be added such as extra interviews and information that we have recently found online.

At this moment in time we are arranging to conduct another interview with a children's TV director to gain his perspective of our topic ranging from TV shows that he has directed to today's shows that have been modernised.
We would like to hear his views on the BBC, Channel 4 and other channels and how they conduct programmes to children and what effects they might have.

Also we are in the process of writing a script for the voice over that will be in the documentary. We have looked at case studies from America, Australia and Canada and have looked at the UK's effect with TV.

By conducting more research we have more material to work with and can expand our questioning to a more professional level so that the audience can have a detailed arguement as to whether or not TV for children.

Contiuation of Film

We are in discussion to add two more interviews to the documentary. One being from a parent/parents and the other being from a children's TV director who will discuss his views on the current output of the children's entertainment industry.

Our expert source has worked with the BBC, ITV and Channel 4 and has worked on shows such as Jungle Run and Get Your Own Back. We will also get an extra interview with another TV expert who works on shows such as Strictly Come Dancing and Big Brother. With these interviews we can gain the perspective of children's television and television that is rapidly becoming popular with the younger generation.

Unfortunately due to busy schedules from both parties, we were unable to conduct an interview with an expert.
