Issues in factual programing

Audience feedback

Our audience feedback was okay this is because it had shown what we had done right and what we had done bad also where their could be improvements to make our documentary better. But the overall view of our documentary was okay. they had shown us where their could be improvements made. For example when using the camera also when editing this is because some of the parts in the documentary ere to dark which made it difficult for the viewers to see. Also the use of translation we didn't use any to make our documentary more interesting for the viewer. so overall the feedback was mixed with some people saying it was good and their were other saying that it wasn't as good as it could be. So tacking the feedback on-board we will look to the future and make the documentary better, to do this we would take more action when filming also use different camera angles. also take extra care when choosing locations, we could also add transitions to make our documentary look more professional.

If i was to do the documentary agian i would act on the things i didnt't act on before so that the documentary would be better. For example when choosing the locations, this is because the locations we chose were not good because when it came to filming there was too much nosie and that made things difficult. I would also take extra care when editing our documentary to do this i would use more effect to meake our documentary look more professional, so that when peole watch our documentary they won't get bored and then they would watch the documentary more than once.

Risk assesement

When filming me and shoaib had to be careful of alot of things. when me and shoaib was filming in our locations thier some of the things that put me and shoaib at risk of an injury. when filming outside the cafe we had to be careful of the chairs also the tables so that we dont't trip over the legs and hurt ourselves. Also when filming other people we had to be careful of where we had placed the camera so that it doesn't get in the way of the interviewer.

locations list, shot list and crew list

crew list
The people in our group was me and shoaib. i had two rolls which were being in front of the camera telling people what our documentary was going to be about. also when interviewing one of the students i was the person that would read out the question so they new what they going to be talking about. Also shoaib's role was to be in control of the camera.

Shot list
We didn't use many shots but we used a few. We used over the shoulder and medium close up.

Location list
We had a total of 4 locations. The first location was outside the cafe we chose this location because we thought it would be ideal for our documentary also it was quite while we was filming. we also filmed outside the restaurant which made our documentary stand out because it had a good background. we also filmed outside the gym which also was a good location this is because we needed somewhere decent. our last location Mrs thomes office this was an ideal location because Mrs thomes is more likely to be there.

planing

We interviewed a few people before the main interview which was miss thomes.

• Gift 
• Warda 
• Sabenna
• Mrs Thomes

We interviewed Mrs thomes because we needed an eye witness that could back our documentary up so we needed someone that could tell us the real truth about the issues we had chosen. The students we interviewed were their to give us there opinion about the issues and how they could be improved to make them happy. 

Issues in factual programing

Accuracy 

Accuracy is important during factual programing because what people say on television and documentary movies will be seen by millions of people and the accuracy of the topic is right this could then lead to a big problem if something goes wrong. Also for people to get the accuracy right they would have to get a lot of information about the topic from different types of sources. But if you get the information form someone else you may have to pay but if you get small information from that person it would then cost less depending on how important it is.  

Balance

Balance can be based on two viewpoints from two different people. Also the using of balance is depending on the information found, this would then mean that the information found would go towards the two viewpoints between the two people. 

Impartiality

This is when the you should take both sides of an issue and not be biased and take the one side based on the issue made.

Objectivity

This is when u chose your main objective and you show people what you’re trying to gain from it.  Also objectivity means that your main focus is one the one thing in hand. Its also about getting your point across to the public showing them what your about to do. 

Subjectivity

This means that you have your own personal views and feelings from the issue and this means that it’s more one-sided view. As objectivity it’s more open towards the public and more people can find out about it. But subjectivity is more personal and kept to one person or a few other people but not to the whole world.

Opinion

This can be given by a balanced viewpoint, which needs to be a subjectivity belief or even a interpretation fact. For example something that can be proved but as opinion it cant be proved its more towards someone’s view point and what they think about a certain thing. Also an opinion can be supported by  an argument, although people are then able to show their own opinion on certain facts.

Bias

This mean when theirs only one argument that’s being one sided and then the other argument is there being ignored.

Representation

You should represent your own factual programing in the way you should. For example you should not serotype a person or a group by there different ethnic group because it could cause a huge amount of things that could cause trouble. Also you have to be careful when making factual programs that it doesn’t upset viewers in any sort of way.

Access

You would need other people’s permission to be able to access their work. If you do this without permission there is a chance that you could be suede because they have a right to do that because you have done something wrong towards that person. 

Privacy contract with the viewer

You should always ask the person that you’re filming for permission because if you film him without him knowing then he could suede you and then there’s a chance that you could be arrested.
