Production - Interview filming - #1 (character profile included)


This is Anna Govett, a 17 year old who attends Southend High School for Girls Sixth Form. I chose to use Anna as she is extremely passionate about politics and is a confident speaker, so I knew she would be suitable for my documentary. Anna also is in my young adult demographic, meaning I would be able to have the point of view from a younger demographic, who most would argue are in charge of the country's future.
Anna is situated in the middle of Southend Girls, which I think is suitable due to it being true to her identity and situation, being a 17 year old student.
I used a plain wall background as it gives a more minimalist style and it was also a quieter location with less going on, meaning people would concentrate on what Anna was saying more, rather than looking at what was going on around her.
I also placed her in the left third of the shot so that I can put her name, facts and information which links to what she is saying on the right of the screen. This is something which many documentaries do, so it is a generic convention which I believe would be effective to use in my documentary.
