3. Apartheid:
We should do our documentaries on things we have a lot of
knowledge on. I studied the apartheid for GCSE so I have a
good level of knowledge for it. The reason why I am not taking
it forward is because getting external research and input from
the general public would be hard because not everyone knows
what it is. Along with this, my target audience would be very
narrow.
Ideas I am not taking
forward
Fashion:
Doing fashion is over done and may look like I just copied ideas from
Gok Wan’s TV show. Although it is not a documentary certain
aspects may look similar. Fashion repeats itself over years, and so
through research done in the introductory episode may mean that
the series might not have long gevity. Also I’d focus on mass trends
that are in fashion now, thus alienating niche audiences. From my AS
knowledge by getting rid of the niche audiences could result in a loss
