3. My idea Is to create a fly on the wall documentary that
will follow a group of teenagers who are trying to
complete aspects of their bucket list, within my
documentary I will include activities such as, Sky diving,
Road trip, Scuba diving, zorbing, Afternoon tea,
camping/stargazing, watch the sunset, go to the top of
oxford tower and look across oxford, meet a celebrity,
fire walking, winery and brewery tour, paintballing.
Within the documentary we will also be looking into the
positives and negatives of creating a bucket list and will
go out into the public to find out their thoughts and
opinions on the bucket list.

4. So the question is why you should invest in me,
well not only is my project idea unique and
interesting it is also fun. The Documentary will
target a large teenage audience and considering
they are the high majority of film and television
watchers it means that the documentary is likely
to be a huge success.
My target audience is aged between 17-25 year olds
as we are trying to teach young adults about the
bucket list. We are trying to attract people who are
young, free, adventurous, don’t mind taking a risk
and want to have fun.

5. In the UK the main channels that show
documentaries aimed at the same target audience as
me are; BBC Three, Channel 4, Channel 5 and MTV.
Most of the documentaries made and shown on
these channels are independent film makers, they
are usually created about body issues, holidays or
recent events in the news.
This has shown me that there is a high possibility of
my production doing well in the industry because
there are not many productions with the same ethic
for my target audience.

6. Editing suite- per day it approximately costs £500, I
will need to use the studio for 4 days; in total it will
cost me approximately £2000.
Cameras- per day it approximately costs £150, I will
need the camera for 14 days, in total it will cost me
approximately £2100
Studio time-per day it approximately costs £250, I
will need use of the studio for 2 days, in total it will
cost me around £500
Cast- per day I will have to pay my cast approximately
£300, I have 6 cast members who each make an
appearance 3 times therefore It will cost me
approximately £5400

7. Personnel requirements that we will need
during production will be catering,
accommodation and travel. Catering will be £10
per head per day, so it will approximately cost
£180 for the two weeks of filming. Travel will
approx. cost £30 per journey, so the final
amount will be around £240 and
accommodation will approximately cost £686
for two weeks staying in the premier inn.

8. I have seven members of my cast, Sophie
Earl, Georgina Nelson, Charlotte Hollis,
Annie Rose, Hayley McCarthy, Freddie
Goring, Ed Ryding and Myself. The roles
and activities to be completed will be split
between the seven of us, some activities will

9. include more than one of us others will be
individual activities.
Cameras- During filming I will have help with setting up
the cameras and
recording the
segments, I
will have around
2/3 cameras
being operated
when filming.
Sound- I will have a crew member on sound
during each filming section, using one crew
member on each camera, I will need 2/3
crew members.
Lighting- I will have 2 members of the crew
on lighting, in the case that lighting is wrong

10. or an angle needs changing I will need their
assistance.
Editing- when it comes to editing I will have
2 members of the crew helping out.
Overall I will have 10 crew members.
