( Interview techniques ) treatment.
I plan for my Documentary to be in the typical style where the Subject(s) will be seated in their regular environment and interviewed.
The images in my
Documentary are graphic and include post-surgery photographs, although this is
needed to express how badly my subject needed treatment.

Initial plan of action
If this is impossible to do, interviews from the initial 3 subjects will
suffice.
Date and Time
The day I will film will be on Friday 25th of January and will last approximately 2 hours unless the family suddenly has plans, the location of the shoot will be at their home on St Johns Close.
Equipment
2 cameras will be
used for the interviews in order to capture both the interviewer and
interviewee during the course of the video with images and videos in post
of the subjects. Lighting will be all natural as the room is too small to bring
any lighting or additional equipment, so the equipment used will be limited to
2 Camera’s, 2 Tripods and 2 Microphones.
Post
I also hope to add
footage from my subjects Make-A-Wish, which he will be going on in the next few
weeks. I will not add any music in order for the interviews to be as natural as
possible because I feel that Music will ruin the mood of the whole documentary.
In the Home schooling side, I will hopefully add footage of Bev teaching Ceinen
on Camera and potentially showing his improvement over the years since he was
taken out of school.
Camera switches Perspective when asking/answering a question.
The questions I ask
will be basic, such as “How long have you been home schooling for” however, I
expect the subject to elaborate and go in to more detail on the subject and
potentially talk about the influences behind it. Precautions may need to be in
effect when Interviewing Ceinen because he struggles to answer questions on the
spot, therefore he may need to time to think of an answer and write it down so
that he can read it on Camera.
The home schooling side of the documentary will have interviews from
both the teacher and the student about how Home schooling has been implemented
in to their lives and why they resorted to home schooling instead of going to a
regular school. The student (Ceinen) has Tourette’s and autism so I would like
to ask him how these shape his life and how he has had to live with that (Only
if he is comfortable with answering questions)
I would also like
to potentially get an interview with the whole family together which may be
difficult because the dad works 12 hour shifts and nights and Bailey attends
College.
The Documentary will be cut in to 2 separate parts for each subject, and
some of the interviews will be cut in order to meet the 3 minute demand. I will
keep the most important/interesting questions and answers in the final product.
Date and Time
The day I will film will be on Friday 25th of January and will last approximately 2 hours unless the family suddenly has plans, the location of the shoot will be at their home on St Johns Close.
The date of filming
has been pushed back multiple times from December 3rd because Bailey
and his family went to London for bailey to have surgery, to January 10th,
to January 25th. January 25TH should be the last time it
gets pushed back.
