My Previous Doumentary

While at college I made a documentary about Newark during the Civil war, I feel that doing this has helped a lot with this project as my experineces are relevant to this project. o try something However i feel one of the most important parts to metion about my documentary is that we used animations in it. This was an attempt to try something different, we intialy got our idea from "Bowling for Columbine", however our our animations did not work out as well as in Moore's film. We were hoping this approach would work as our documentary was aimed at school age children as an eduactional film.

The animations were used to provide maps, information and funny clips. however we also used conventional methods such as interviews, on screen presenters and a long shot of the presenter still giving information. this technique is often used in childrens shows.
