Top Boy Poster analysis

The reason for choosing the Top Boy poster instead of a documentary poster, is that their were not many youthful documentary posters and elements from this Top boy poster such as the still disequilibria shot that we intend to use in our documentary poster.

Interview research

Interviewing people is something new for me and my team. We have never interviewed someone before and needed to know common conventions of interviewing people. The video above form expert village imposed generic conventions of interviews that we found useful. We all understand that people are not completely oblivious to the camera when you first film them; they're nervous but will get use to it later on in the interview. So asking them the same question again at the end of the interview will generally produce more confident responses.

Conventional BBC Font

After thorough research into fonts that we might use in our poster, I came across the font Gill Sans, that BBC use for their poster.  BBC adopted the typeface as its corporate typeface in 1997. The corporation used the font in all its media output.

 As our Fantasy audience is viewers on BBC, I decided to use this conventional font for professionalism uses only.  

A focus group on our documentary idea

I conducted a focus group to a small group of students that gave us feedback on some of our documentary ideas. I Presented the concept and editing tips and filmed their responses:

We took into account their feedback and discussed it among ourselves. They liked our documentary concept in particular which is always a good thing. We never told them which documentary was ours to get honest opinions. If they never liked something, we would encourage them to talk about why they don't like it and make changes. They seemed to like our documentary concept so we did no have to make changes to it. We also showed them an intro to Jewish mum of the year and the Bokeh lens concept and asked for their opinion. They seemed to like both of them but some did not feel like the jewish mum of the year opening is a documentary. The reason of not like or for some people, liking it, was due to the concept and not the editing. We showed them the jewish mum of the year for the editing feedback and there was no criticism to it, so we are still going go with editing that the jewis mum has.
