I presented my pitch on Tuesday, I created a slideshow with my notes on it. I spoke about the whole concept and aims of my project and then what I will do for my primary and secondary research, target audience, problem solving, strengths and weaknesses and presenting my project.
I got some feedback at the end of the pitch. My target audience was going to be people who were interested in Liverpool, history, music, art and football but she suggested that I should broaden my target audience like high schools and to present it in history and geography lessons.
I was also told that I should balance my documentary by talking about the good things of Liverpool but also the bad things like homelessness, migration, jobs and money. I could interview people who suffer and get their opinions on their situations so the audience can feel for them and get a better understanding on these. Then, I could interview people who are living better lives for example, interview a business owner and how they got to being so successful and maybe a musician who can talk about how they also made it.
It was suggested I should contact the university for expository documentaries and social history theory. For my primary research, I will created a questionnaire but also do vox pops and ask people from the city.
I will talk to the owners of the Liverpool museum. I will use BBC news – buildings and music. For my style, I will use iplayer to get inspiration by analysing similar documentaries and interview questions.
My skills I have from the units I have done from the past two years will come into helping me complete my documentary like my communication and confidence which will help me with interviewing and getting permission to film in certain locations.
