voiceover

                                          Voiceover

We decided to go with an investigation style for our documentary. So for this we recored a voiceover to help with this style and to help guide the viewer through the documentary.The voiceover was to explain are thoughts when making the documentary and when we finished filming it.​ We had a lot of thoughts when we were making this documentary we wanted to use this so used the voiceover to explain our thoughts. This let the viewer see the documentary though are eyes and helped guide them through the story.This voiceover explain are process when making the film how we decided to change approach to are questions we asked.​The voiceover also explains the conclusion we made after we were done filming.​

We first wrote the script for the voiceover and then it was recored on a Iphone by Jamie who also did the interviews so it keeps the narrator consistent and gave the film a voice to guide the viewers through the whole documentary. We had to recored it on a iphone due to events out of our control and we couldn't gain access to a good mic.

Settings Camera settings: Frame Rate For all of the interviews and b roll we shot it in 24fps. At the start of the filming I didn't understand frame rates but now I feel like I fully understand them. We chose 24fps so we could get the cleanest look with natural motion blur. We didn't use any other frame rate because we didn't plan any slow motion  Shutter Speed Unfortunately I messed up a few interviews in this regard. It isn't very important because there wasnt alot of motion in our interviews and b roll so motion blur wasn't very common anyways but still. I did not understand at the time that the shutter speed should be 2x the frame rate in order to get natural motion blur. I just adjusted it to find the best exposure. Not great practise but it isn't very noticeable.  Aperture We were using a very fast lense so it was very easy to get a good exposure whether indoor or outdoor. I went a bit crazy with the bokeh and shot almost all of th...
