Evaluation questions
Music Documentary Rough Royalty Collective- Tamilore Alade
Other ways our documentary uses convention of existing documentaries. Is the use of sound bedding, which is used during the during the voice over, interview and as a soundtrack for the beginning of the episode. Sound bedding/track is an instrumental sound usually from the song that the cast produced or from a featured song that relates to the genre. We used sound bedding because it helps the audience capture what is going on.
Actuality footage was used during the interview of Kayz. Showing the artist performing on stage. This adds realism to our documentary. We also used another actuality footage where the group were performing for a music video in the borough of Abbey wood
Text was used during the interview. Which includes the artists name and what they do. This is a important form, because it gives the audience further information of who they're watching telling them what their role in Rough Royalty and also makes the characters more easier to remember.
Interviews are a very common convention. This allows our cast to speak directly to the audience, telling them about themselves and experiences. Interviews help to give our documentary a sense of realism. The interviewee also look into the eye of the interview while giving there thoughts on the subject. This helped to create more emotion as they speak.
In our interview it was set up in a room using a white screen background and bright lightning and the camera remains static to make it look more professional and so it doesn’t distract the audience from what`s being said, makes it easier to see the cast and offers a clean space to place in the text.
We also used cutaways during the interview to illustrate what the casts are talking about e.g. Dans (public relations) interview.
We used Narrative montage for the introduction by showing different cuts of what's going to take place in the documentary. There were numerous shots of the group in different settings and time within the documentary. Montages in documentaries usually link to what the narrator or different people in the documentary says. However we used this technique but also challenged it by using montage to show iconography images and things that’s going on in the series.
Another convention that was used is colour bars and “beep” sound to add emphasis during the interview of Kaysan. The Colour bars were added during post production, where we censored some of the language used and redid the interview. Colour bars are usually used for behind the scenes and for some music documentaries.

comedy film for children may have bright vibrant
colours(blue, yellow, pink etc.).

zagged, straight etc.) colour outlines, or glows.

graphics are important factors that must considered so that

Key/Pivotal DVD Menus
13. Motion Graphics and Compositing is used effectively in the DVD
Menu of Finding Nemo. There is a clear composition between the
moving background and the Menu options and title. The colours
used in DVD Menu are well done as they reflect the theme, genre
and target audience. The typography for the title is custom made
that is suited to the theme of the sea it is a blue colour with a
white glare effect, the text in the menu options is also in a similar
font and colour to the title. Another feature is the movement of
the camera and the animated coral reef in the background. It is
shown in a point of view shot from over the water going under
which is used to draw the audience into the scene. The coral reef
in the background makes a slow, calm side to side movement.
Finding Nemo DVD Menu
15. The DVD Menu for Sin City uses a lot of motion graphics and
compositing. They use a mixture of multi-media and animation.
Firstly few colours are used in (red, black and white) that do a
perfect job of reflecting on the crime thriller genre. The
typography uses a comic type font in black and white(also reflect
on genre) for the options. The title uses the original font and
colour used in the graphic novel. A lot of compositing is used for
the graphics and animations for e.g. the images on the comic
pages. A lot of fast paced movement is used with the camera and
animations. For e.g. the camera gives a journey through the scenes
and characters and objects flying through the scene such as the
animated bullets. The use of multi-media being the live video
footage of the movie is used well as it comes to life by
transitioning from animation to live footage. Overall the motion
graphics and compositing bring the characters and scenery from
the comic book to life.
Sin City DVD Menu
17. Being a horror film, the Silent Hill film is targeted at adults and its
purpose is to scare. The DVD menu uses some motion graphics and
compositing to enhance its elements of fear and terror. For instance the
colours used in the DVD menu are black and green. These colours are
dark and give a mysterious vibe to it. The typography is cleverly done
as it uses a stencil based font like chalk and charcoal. It is quite faded in
some areas of the letters. The colour of white for the title and black for
the options is used to clearly differentiate from one another. The
graphics used in the DVD menu are still images that are used in the
background on the right and left side. Which consist of half a face and
an outline of a person. Again the mysterious vibe is given as from the
images. The movement in the DVD Menu is mainly slow paced coming
from the animated black barbed wires that move slowly in a straight
line. These barbed wires are composited in and are placed all of the
screen from the foreground to the background. The last thing that is
used is live video footage of the film that loops in the centre of the
background.
Silent Hill DVD Menu
19. Rush hour is a action/comedy film that uses few motion
graphics and compositing elements in the DVD menu. The
DVD menu uses sepia colours. A bright red and orange is
mainly used with a tint of green in some areas of scenes.
The typography is very plain and is in a basic white. Also
the title of the film does not appear. The main excitement in
the DVD menu is the use of multi-media. Live video
footage is used and lopped and some still images.
Compositing is used in the still images and text. The text is
always in front of everything else. The red glaring lights
that underline the text is the only visual effect that is present
throughout the whole DVD menu.
