2.  We decided to reject this
convention as we wanted to get
the message across through
real life footage.
 We also decided to have
interviews in our documentary
which put across the message in
voice format.
 We decided to have captions on
footage such as safe and sound
and summer sundae as shown
on the side.

3.  We decided to accept this convention and our
whole documentary is made up of real
footage.
 Nothing within our documentary was staged
and we felt that we were telling the truth by
doing this.
 All the events which took place in our
documentary actually happened and that is a
major convention of a media product.

4.  We decided to reject this convention as we
wanted our whole documentary to be of
footage which was actually happening when
producing the documentary.
 We would have liked to use Archive footage
such as CCTV footage however due to
confidentiality reasons we were unable to
obtain these and therefore we had to use real
footage.

5.  We had a total of 4 interviews and all these
interviews were obtained on the 29th during
the Safe and Sound exhibition.
 This gave honest opinions about Leicester
and we were fortunate enough to get an
interview with an SMT and also an Ex
Leicester City captain who gave his honest
opinions about Leicester.
 All of our interviewees were experts in a
certain area to do with the force or heavily
linked with Leicester.

6.  The majority of our footage we took was
through a handheld camera so therefore we
accepted this convention.
 The time lapse were done through a tripod
however we didn’t take the tripod when we
went on night time shoots.
 This gave it a more realistic effect and shows
how we stuck to our conventions.

7.  We decided to accept this convention by
using diegetic sound of the police cars. This
was because we could not hear the sirens
when we originally filmed them.
 This also strengthen the message of how
police officers are always on the ball and
always arresting people.
 We also decided to use a soundtrack
produced by Alex and also able to secure
copyright permission from Example.
