City of york 3

1. RESEARCH: DEAF
• Matt Dixon, is a child of deaf adults (CODA) talking about the deaf population in York getting less and less. 20 years ago,
the Deaf club in York had a vibrant Friday night social. However, some deaf people have told Matt that they don’t feel
welcome at that club. They started going to Deaf clubs in Leeds and Hull. Someone has recently set up a new group
called Jorvik Deaf Connections (JDC) but the building is to small for. There was also a financial issue so they moved to a
different club which is cheaper. https://limpingchicken.com/2014/11/04/york-deaf-split/
• York only has 160 deaf and hearing impaired babies, children and young people., according to statistics.
• Manchester has popular Deaf Club with people coming from all over the UK. Manchester, Hull and Leeds have yearly
events at their clubs, making York less interesting.
• There should be more information available for deaf people in York about what to do socially.
• Leeds has lots of Deaf clubs. Leeds is popular and welcoming for the Deaf people who lives outside of Leeds. Hull Deaf
club uses a large building, able to take lots of people at the same time.
• Manchester, Leeds and Hull are modern cities which could be more interesting to Deaf teenagers. York is a place for the
elderly, which is suitable for families, middle-aged and elderly who have lived in York all their lives.

Hull have one large club

RESEARCH: LGBT
• York has a small number of people who identify as LGBTQ+. York is small city which does not
seem to have much going on for gay / deaf people. Also some people may not feel comfortable
coming-out.
• Regular Event and Meeting Group section does not include York Pride or York LGBT History Month
because these only take place once per year.
• York has two LGBTQ+ pubs but they are very small buildings and not popular, called Thomas’s of
York and The Corner Pin.
• York has one LGBT festival at The Knaves mire Racecourse once a year in June.
• In June 2019 I went to LGBTQ+ Pride in York which was great. I think there should be more events
in York to raise awareness of what York has to offer LGBTQ+ people.
• York has a strong historical tourism industry.
• Manchester has lots of LGBTQ+ nightclubs because Manchester is large and a popular city, Deaf
people know it as having lots of variety. York doesn’t have ‘nights’, only pubs with little
entertainment.
• In the 21st century most people, LGBTQ+ or straight, use phone apps to meet people, rather than
going out to find partners.

Manchester has almost 40 LGBT nightclub in one city!

SURVEY RESULTS
• Question One – My audience is 18 to 24 years old. These are people interested in, or live in York.
• Question Two – Most of my audience identify as heterosexual. and I was disappointed because no one identified as LGBTQ+ in
my results. This does not mean that York does not have an LGBTQ+ community only that they didn’t respond.
• Question Three – Most of my audience were Deaf because I have friends with lots of Deaf people. That is good because I will
create the documentaries to show the Deaf audience might be agree with me.
• Question Four – Most of my audience have no problem experience with Deaf and LGBT when they growing up.
• Question Five - Most of my audience didn’t like York Deaf Club (Lollipop) and one person told that Deaf people feel they belong
somewhere. That is reason most of Deaf people went to Leeds, Hull and Manchester because they are huge popular and make
Deaf people attracting to going there. York became reduce attracting.
• Question Six and Seven – Most of my audience who live outside of York had been visit in York because they want to go to York
College. York College had the best education and York city is beautiful. That is true because York had strong historian place to
make people interested about the history. Plus, York can make people learning about the history too.
• Question Eight – My audience had compare about York should have LGBT nightclub. Some of audience want to and some of
audience don’t want to. Don’t forget all my audience is straight which they might not sure about it. But they can be support with
LGBT community because they would like York have LGBT nightclub for the right equally.
• Question Nine – Most of my audience have no idea why York Deaf Club had shut down because these don’t have enough news
to spread top everybody. It’s look like hiding news from everybody or they might doesn't listen the news.
• Question Ten – Most of my audience want to York building new Deaf Club because York need have one to be fair with other
place. Leeds and Hull have close to York which is York should have one.

• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHPOEFWgPy4 (Middle Shot)
• Most of film documentaries had use middle shot and close up because they show their facial expressions and emotions connect to the
audience understand how they feel. I think my film will use middle shot and long shot because I want to my Deaf audience to see me
more clear to sign language. Also, middle shot can give me to space for my sign language. Similar as television interpreter stand on the
bottom right of screen to translate to the audience.
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mkXRm2uQS8 (Middle Shot)
• That the one I will create similar as that. I will be presenter with British Sign Language and I will stand on the left the screen and the
right use for some videos and subtitles come up. I will use middle shot between my head to my waist to easy space my sign language.
Also I will adding LGBT flag on the white screen to show my film documentary talk about LGBT. Also I will use my sign language on my
film to show that I am Deaf and Gay. I might wear LGBT flag on me to show that I am proud myself. Some videos about York pubs and
buildings will on the white screen when the presenter explain about it.

FINAL IDEA
• I decided to choose mind map 4 because I have lots of idea to be filming. I will filming around the York building to show for
my audience look around in York. My film will have include York Minister, Clifford Tower, York Walls and old buildings to
show popular of history in York.
• I will filming at my interviews to show what they explain, opinions and feelings about accepting who they are. I have 7
people will be interview and some of them are LGBT and some of them are live in York. I want to ask them about how they
feel about begin Deaf and LGBT. The interview will involving in my film because my film is documentary which is tell the
truth story. I want my audience listen what they feeling about begin Deaf and LGBT during their growing up.
• I want to show my audience to learn about Deaf and LGBT’s life. Deaf and LGBT have suffered from homophobia and
discrimination. I want my film give a awareness about I want to be equality. I am also gay and I am proud myself. I am lucky
because because no one beat me or rejecting me. But, I know there other LGBT people who suffer from beat up, disowned
by parents, suicide and rejected by friends. I will create my film to show the audience to learn must be accept other people
who LGBT or some audience learn to ready stand up and came out.
• My film have similar as the short film called “Black Sheep” because that film has taught me to understand how much black
people suffered from racism and the film show to the audience to stop be racist to black people. Now, I thought about Deaf
have disability and teach to the audience to understand how much disability suffered from discrimination. I am Deaf and
sometimes I had discrimination by people who don’t understand or accepted begin Deaf. I want to my film show to my
audience will learning to stop be discrimination to disability and let’s have a right equality.
• I want to filming at York because York doesn't have Deaf and LGBT around in York. So, I will show to audience about LGBT
and Deaf around in York to make the audience might found new interest to visit around the York. I am live in York and I want
to be fair with other cities who always filming in London, Manchester, Leeds, Hull and others. I would like to experience to
filming in York to see how much audience will interest about York.

PLANNING
• Before the interview, I create some questions to ask some people who Deaf and LGBT. I had some important questions
because I want to get deep information about how do they feel to live with sexuality and disability. The interview will be
filming because I want to them in my film to show the audience to understand about their life experience.
• I will create the storyboard because that is help me to imagine progress the scenes. Also, that help me to create what my film
look like because I want my film have similar as “Black Sheep” who the people sat and talk to the camera which is make they
tell to the audience about their life experience. My film will have people who sit and talk to me and the camera. The
storyboard will help to where to place to film, shot list, interviews and the presenter in each scenes.
• I will filming in studio room because I want to use the white screen background in my film. At the interview, a person sitting on
middle of screen and white screen behind the person to see more clear and professional. I will use the studio lights because I
want my screen look nice and bright. Also I will stand in front of white screen and left the screen for some video and subtitles
come up by me to make see better. If the subtitles on the bottom of screen might be difficult to see between the presenter
and video.
• The background will add LGBT flag behind me to show stand up and pride for LGBT. I will more space to sign for the Deaf
culture visible. I think that is good idea because I want to make my audience feel interested to watch it and might be some
LGBT in my audience can be feel safety.
• I will filming at York city because I want to my screen have York city on the background. I will shooting at York Minister, Clifford
Tower and old buildings for the presenter who is talking about Deaf and LGBT. I will also shooting at two LGBT pubs called
Thomas’s of York and The Corner Pin. The presenter will stand by the pub and explain about them.
• I asked some people who will join the interview soon. They are accepted and I have some timetable for the interview date and
time. I am only got 4 weeks production and I need the timetable help me to order time manage. I don’t want waste my time
or delay over the deadline. I created 4 timetables, weeks, who interviews, filming interview and filming at York.

SCRIPT
BSL Check spelling and grammar correct Final

EVALUATION: AUDIENCE CHARACTERISTICS
• I want to target three things about the audience in my film; aged between 16 to 24 years old, sexuality (Gay, Lesbian,
Bisexual and Transgender) and disability (Deaf). It was a good idea that I became a presenter because I am 21 years old,
gay and Deaf which is perfect to connect with my target audience.
• I interviewed one tutor and five students. The tutor is hearing and the students are Deaf. I want to show my audience
what their views and opinions are about York. I want my audience to agree with me and understand how we are feeling.
This is important socially because I don’t want Deaf people to be discriminated by hearing people, which can lead to
poor mental health.
• I invited five students aged between 16 – 18, because this is my target audience. The audience might learn how it feels
to be Deaf and LGBT around York. I want to persuade my audience to understand and this might will help us to fight for a
Deaf Club and LGBTQ+ nightclubs. I tried to create some very important questions to make my Deaf audience aware
what is about in York.

EVALUATION: DESIGN
• I created the subtitles in my film because I am Deaf and I use sign language. I had an idea to create a white text with a
black outline text because it looks attractive. The colour subtitles are important for my Deaf audience because Deaf
Culture is visual. This gets the attention of Deaf people.
• I like the title font because it’s look like a New York theatre title with lights around the title. I added rainbow colours on
the title because it’s appropriate to the subject, LGBT issues. This will help my audience understand what my film is
about.
• The subtitles that I chose are called Georgia Regular Black Outline, this is easier to read. I put a black outline because the
background is too bright which is difficult to read. So, black outline with white text is much clearer.
• I used the white screen background on the interview because I want them to look professional. Only two interviews don’t
have a white background because they interviewed themselves. This was difficult to edit it because the backgrounds
didn’t match with my colour levels, becoming too bright or too static. I decided that next time I would do the interviews
myself.

EVALUATION: PRODUCTION
• I used the green because I could not film myself out in York, I was on my own. I know most documentary films have
the presenter filming on location. Also I didn’t think I had enough time to do it. So I used the green screen instead.
• I screenshotted some images like York Minister, Clifford Tower and other old buildings York landmarks. I put them on
the green background to make it look like the presenter was standing at that area in York. The screen was not pulled
tight creating shadows. This would have been improved by having alight directly above. To be honest, green screen
effect doesn’t look as professional as location filming. But I have learnt how to use them for the future.
• I need to think about the focusing the camera. I set up the camera before I started filming and I forgot to set up the
focus. It looks a bit blurry because I was too busy to sorting out the interviewee, tutor, camera and lights. Also I was in
rushed for time because my time was tight. I have used some told to change the blurriness.
• I know the film is limited to 10 minutes but I have 17 minutes in total so I must change it. I had one longer video about
Wayne's interview, about 12 minutes. So, at first I checked the script and I picked two important questions to make
less time Now, I finished edit and it’s a total of about three minutes to better fit in the 10 minutes film.

EVALUATION: CLIENT
• One of mediale found interested about my film because I talked about how can I create my film with a great
visible. I am Deaf and I need to use some visible to get attention my Deaf audience to watch my film. My film is
talking about Deaf and LGBT which is involved Deaf culture.
• I made my film is about 16 to 24 years old because I watched one advert film was about around in York but my
view that is bored because this is suitable middle-aged. Now, I want to get target my audience ages to get
attracting to watching my film. I think that’s good idea to make fair between teenagers and middle-aged to watch
different advert film.
• I was create Deaf and LGBT documentary film because I want to show my client to feedback about my film. That’s
important for me because I want to know how good or bad compare in my film.
• The interviews are important because they will tell the truth about the reason around in York. I want to show some
information about what is happened in York so far

EVALUATION: PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
• I’m not happy with green screen background because its look not professional. But at least, I was learning how to use it
because I want to learn new skill. Green screen background is important for the filming because if I will create any cartoon,
animation or fantasy on background and I will know how to use it.
• One thing had difficult with green screen background because I tried to remove green screen to turn to my image. But there
had some bit green on my image because of studio lights I need correct direction one studio light on the presenter to make
easy to remove all green screen.
• I’m happy with the subtitles because they look professional white text with black outline to make look better read. I don’t sure
about my original idea about rainbows subtitles because I know they might look difficult to read it. I decided to remove idea
but I had good idea to use rainbows colour on the title because its look cool. The title to show my audience my film is talking
about the part of LGBT.
• I think my film have similar to other films because they had use green screen. They used it because that is easy to save out
time to filming. I was tried to filming outside but I haven’t got time to filmed. But I still want to be filming around in town
because I want to have real background video to look professional like other documentary film and news film.
• At the interview, I do wish all person sit on the left screen because I want to subtitle on the white screen to look cool. But two
interviews use on their phone and other interviews sit at middle of white screen to make look confused and messy. I want to
be perfect interview in my film like all the exactly same spot and position for I create the subtitles on the white screen.
• I create not good questions because I want to ask very important question to get deep information to reason about in York.
My questions are bit distract like my questions is talk about York college, school and came out LGBT. I want to get questions
like about socially, people, laws, judgement or discrimination. That is all I need get deep reality answers.
