Initial Planning

Our proposed idea for our documentary is to inform the person who will be watching it what is happening in Belton. So this documentary will show you all the developments in the village like making a skate park, having a public field and investments by the council in Belton to make the villagers lives better. Our documentary will include interviews with the general public in Belton and the parish council in Belton. In the documentary there will also be pictures of the plans for Belton as well as pictures of what Belton used to be like and how it has changed in the years.

Our primary audience is adults who live in the area and our secondary audience is adults who are looking to move into Belton or who are looking to go on holiday in Belton. The aim of this documentary is to inform the user about Belton for example what facilities we have and what holiday camps we have etc. The format we have chosen for this documentary  is expository as we want a voiceover for  the images and film and this format suits it best as we don’t want to get heavily involved like the Interactive format but we want some involvement.  With our documentary I don’t believe there will be any technical or ethical problems but I believe that because we have a limited budget we won’t be able to do as much than if we had more money. They may be legal issues in the point of filming the general public.

*UPDATE*
We have changed our idea now so that we are focus on 'Is there a miss communication between councils and the community?'. This allows us to focus on what people are informed about what their council is doing. When we were trying to organise the interviews and the filming of the council meeting, we found out that we wont be able to film the council metting so instead we had an idea of filming the councilers going into the building and going out of the building.
