Conventions of a documentary
Documentaries follow certain conventions when filming interviews and presenting information. Interviews are typically filmed with a steady tripod camera focused on the subject. Interviewees are framed using the rule of thirds composition technique. The interviewer stands off-camera to avoid distraction. Interview titles provide context on the subject. B-roll footage, creative montages, establishing shots, archive media, photographs, and vox pops are used to illustrate topics discussed. A presenter directly addresses the audience to provide narrative and context. Voiceovers are used authoritatively while non-diegetic music accompanies them at a low volume.

Cutaway shots and still photos illustrate points discussed. Establishing shots identify important locations. Vox pops from ordinary people are sometimes captured handheld. A presenter or voiceover narrator provides context and guidance.

Codes and conventions of a documentary
This document outlines some common codes and conventions used in documentaries. It discusses the use of a clear voiced narrator to provide context and facts, standard camera techniques like establishing shots and close-ups during interviews. It also mentions the use of archive footage and materials to support the narrative, as well as graphic elements like titles and credits. Location, clothing, lighting and other aspects of mise-en-scene aim to be relevant to the documentary's themes. A variety of sound elements including music, interviews and voiceovers are also used to tell the story.
What is a documentary
Central to a documentary is focusing on actual people and events to allow audiences to form opinions. John Grierson coined the term "documentary" in 1926 to describe fact-based films. According to John Corner, there are five central elements of documentaries: observation, interviews, dramatization, mise-en-scene, and exposition. There are also different types of documentaries such as fully narrated, fly on the wall, mixed, self-reflexive, docudrama, and docusoap. Successful documentaries rely on traditional narrative structures with a beginning, middle, and end focused on character and conflict.
Codes and conventions of documentaries
Documentaries typically follow certain conventions regarding their structure, camerawork, voiceovers, and editing. Narratively, they tend to be single-stranded with themes throughout and a voiceover that ties the story together. Visually, establishing shots are used to set the context while interviews employ close-ups, rule of thirds framing, and creative camera angles. Sound-wise, voiceovers provide context and facts, music heightens emotion, and effects are included in reconstructions. Graphically, white text stands out for titles and credits while titles identify interviewees. Archive material must be relevant to the topic and voiceovers further explain context. Cuts, dissolves, and montages are common editing techniques.
