Last Year's A2 Level Documentary - Wikileaks

Conventions Used: 
  • Voiceover
  • Sped Up Footage
  • Interviews
  • Reporter speaking to Camera
Editing, Sound and Use Of Archive Footage:
  • Suitable soundtrack and effects
  • Jump cuts used throughout and fades at certain points
  • Used efficiently - images of websites and pictures linked to subject matter
What went well?: 
  • Computer screens turning on when presenter states facts
  • Effective voiceover
  • Opening Sequence
What need improvement?:
  • The sound in the interviews on the bridge was pretty poor and the wind could be heard which is a shame because altogether the documentary was very well constructed. Although this is problem which is hard to avoid, a better location for the interviews could have been chosen.
Documentary Type: 
  • Expository
  • Participatory
  • Performative
