What have you learned from your audience feedback?
After interviewing one person for my audience feedback, i have learnt that out documentary could have been a bit more different, other than that we did pretty well. We interviewed Teme who is a student at college. She said that the beginning of our documentary, when we have the cutaway of different magazines being chucked was very "professional", shows the audience that we used different techniques to make our documetary stand out.
The next question which was asked was "In what ways do you think it reflects generic conventions of fashion? Teme has said to believe that we followed all conventions as we included all the main bits, for example interviews, cutaways, voiceovers etc. Shows people who are watching this that we did follow all conventions in order to create a good documentary and made it as informative as possible.
What improvements would you suggest? Teme pointed out that if we actually filmed something from a live fashion event, would have made our documentary much better because it will show how we tried out different areas, and worked hard at finding things that have to do with our Fashion Tribes topic. However at the time of when we were doing our production, we were unable to film any fashion shows because there was no shows going on when we were free to film.

Documentary Analysis
The documentary which i have chosen comes from newsnight. It is about a former agent who had been tortured in uzbekistan by the people of the president.

The first screen shot i show, non diegetic sound is being played whilst showing the fighting. This sound goes in contrast with what is actually happening in this very scene, as the music played is very classical and slow... almost adding on more emotion, as what is happening is dreadfull and sad. Also the lighting in this scene is very low. This is used to add more tension in the scene, so the viewers are kept more interested into what is happening in this very scene. A medium shot has been used, so we can have a clear shot of the action taking place, aswell as it focusing on the main domains of the picture, which is the police officer fighting a woman.

My Role In The Group
My role in our group is as Editor:
This means that i would be in charge of how our documentary/production will come together. My role would consist me of being responsible of camera footage, dialogue, sound effects, graphics and special effects. As editor i will have to work very closely with my director so i have a idea of what she is trying to portray in the footage that she will direct, in hope that i will get a desired end result.
