This document evaluates research and planning resources for a documentary film project. It provides links to helpful interviews and tutorials on documentary filmmaking techniques. However, it also links to articles that are not well researched or analyzed for relevance to the project. While some resources like interviews and tutorials on narrative frameworks and interviewing skills would be useful, other articles focused on current events lack in-depth examination. Overall, the document shows potential resources but needs more analysis and explanation of how sources relate to and inform the planned documentary film.

Evaluation question 1
The document discusses how the student's documentary incorporates conventions from real documentaries, such as using the rule of thirds in interviews, clip mics for sound quality, and vox pops between clips. It also develops techniques like narration to provide context over b-roll footage and archive clips. While adopting these techniques, the documentary also challenges conventions by introducing the title in a unique way using an animation from Crash Bandicoot to creatively capture the audience's attention.
Research into tv documentaries style and influences
This document discusses various styles and techniques used in TV documentaries. It outlines direct cinema, which emerged in the 1960s using portable equipment for a fly-on-the-wall approach without narration. Rules of direct cinema included no interviews, rehearsals, staged events, or film lights. Examples include D.A. Pennebaker's 1968 film "Don't Look Back". Cinema verite was a similar European style that also used interviews and expressed the filmmaker's opinions. Institutional documentaries use direct cinema techniques to provide insights into everyday work life. Docusoaps portray common experiences through the eyes of the public using fast editing and narrative strands. Public affairs documentaries traditionally discuss current issues using sources like the
Documentary
This document provides an overview of the documentary filmmaking process. It is divided into three main stages: pre-production, production, and post-production. In pre-production, filmmakers develop their vision, research their topic, and create a storyboard. During production, they shoot footage such as interviews and B-roll. In post-production, filmmakers edit their raw footage into a rough cut, and then a final cut, adding elements like music, captions, and transitions. The goal is to craft a fact-based film that tells a true story.

This document provides an overview of the documentary filmmaking process. It is divided into three main stages: pre-production, production, and post-production. In pre-production, filmmakers develop their vision, research their topic, create a storyboard, and make plans for shooting. During production, they gather media like video, photos, and interviews. In post-production, filmmakers review their vision and footage, edit it into a rough cut, and then a final cut by adding audio, visual effects, and captions. Transcribing interviews, getting outside feedback, and properly citing sources are also recommended.

Is coffee healthy
1) Bananas and oranges are healthy foods that contain potassium, iron, vitamin A, and vitamin C respectively which are good for health and strengthening the body.
2) Studies on the French paradox show that the French have lower rates of heart attacks despite unhealthy lifestyles, possibly because they drink wine regularly. Wine contains antioxidants and alcohol which improve blood flow.
3) Early studies showed coffee raised blood pressure and heart rate, but later 1970s/80s studies proved coffee may actually improve blood pressure and reduce risks of diabetes, heart disease, and heart attacks.

Evaluation Factual
Samuel Schoettner evaluated their space exploration documentary. They conducted thorough research on the topic as someone new to the subject. The opening paragraph effectively set up the premise and grounded viewers. Footage was sourced since filming their own was impossible. Text elements were added after realizing motion graphics wouldn't work. The documentary was similar to Adam Curtis' style of using footage to illustrate ideas and Business Insider's short format. Weaknesses included rushed pacing and sourcing better footage. More production time would have allowed a more in-depth, articulate piece.
Evaluation
The student conducted research on video game documentaries and tragedies related to video games to plan their documentary. They reached out to voice actors in the industry for interviews via social media. While some planning was useful, note taking when watching documentaries could have been improved. The student created graphics, recorded interviews, and edited the documentary in Premiere Pro. Peer feedback noted the robotic narration, sharp cuts, bright lighting, and spelling mistakes in captions as areas for improvement. The student agreed with these critiques from their peers.

Evaluation question 1
The media product uses many of the forms and conventions of real documentaries. It follows a serious and pessimistic tone in the opening to set the scene, includes interviews and facts to educate the audience, and uses techniques like voiceover narration, camera shots, editing cuts and music to keep the documentary engaging. Primary and secondary research was conducted to back up points made. The documentary aims to match the realistic and authoritative style of exemplar documentaries like Supersize Me through its use of established documentary codes and conventions.
Question 1 (finished)
The document discusses the process of creating a short documentary, radio trail, and magazine article for an A2 media coursework. It describes researching conventions of those media to make the products look professional. The documentary focused on social networking and cyberbullying. Research included analyzing documentaries, radio trails, and magazine articles. Conventions like interviews, voiceovers, and establishing shots were included. The magazine article and radio trail also utilized typical conventions seen in those media like prominent images and headlines, and providing broadcast details.
A2 Media evaluation question 1
George Loftus' documentary follows conventions of real documentaries by using a serious tone in the opening 5 minutes to set the scene. It draws from Bill Nichols' documentary modes, particularly the expositional mode which includes voiceover narration and factual information. Key techniques like interviews, establishing shots, and cutaways are used similarly to documentaries like Supersize Me and Airline. Research, both primary and secondary, backs up points to educate viewers. The radio trail and TV listings article employ familiar conventions of their respective mediums to promote the documentary.
Culture Eval.pptx
The documentary produced by the student follows codes and conventions of the genre. It begins with an introduction and quote, then cuts to an interview shot with subtitles. Various clips from different decades are included on different topics, with a voiceover to provide context. The structure of clips and voiceover continues for subsequent topics. At the end, pros and cons of online activism appear on screen alongside the narration. The student reflected that thorough planning, feedback, and technical skills improved their work, and that their idea remained consistent from conception to completion.
Use -develop-challenge conventions
The documentary uses several conventions of real media products:
1) A voice-over to establish authority and trust with the audience.
2) Real footage of events to increase reliability.
3) Natural sound and lighting for a realistic feel.
4) Interviews with experts to inform and potentially challenge opinions on subjects.
5) Text labels to quickly convey information and strengthen reliability.
It challenges conventions by not using dramatization or an on-screen presenter, instead relying on a voice-over. The documentary also takes a reflexive approach based on suggestions and opinions rather than facts alone.

Our documentary emulates real documentaries by using codes and conventions from examples like Supersize Me and World's Strictest Parents. We include interviews, graphics with facts, establishing shots, mid shots and captions introducing subjects. We also use techniques like fast-paced editing, close-ups showing expression, blurring for effects, and text overlays. While following conventions, we aim to make our documentary on health and fitness for teenagers feel realistic and professionally produced.

Dissertation Production Log
Brandon Boyd developed ideas for his dissertation video on the power of social media. He initially considered concepts like a personal video, magazine, or sketchbook but realized those were too broad. His final idea was a series of 3-4 short videos exploring topics like social media, mental health, and LGBTQ+ issues. He researched other creators like Daniel Sax, Ellen Degeneres, and Des Herbert for inspiration. Sax's simple, creative videos informed Brandon's planning. Ellen's documentary style overview of key life events was not applicable to Brandon's life. Herbert's video about engaging social media content influenced Brandon's focus on visuals and key messages.

It discusses formulating documentary ideas into a treatment, which is a prose version of how the film will look and feel. It covers developing ideas, conducting research, and translating ideas into a written treatment that can be used to assess the project and seek funding. Treatments typically include who, what, when, where, how, why and importance of the story, as well as potential interview subjects and experts. A proposal may also be included to target specific potential sponsors. The goal is to link ideas to reality and assess feasibility before significant time and resources are invested.
Critical Reflection
The pre-production process for the documentary went well, as the group planned what facts and interview questions they would include. Filming the documentary presented some challenges, such as noise interference and difficulty finding interview subjects due to the controversial topic. While the documentary included a variety of locations, opinions, and time-lapse footage, weaknesses included too many transitions, low audio quality without a microphone, and poor lighting in some shots. Feedback noted both strengths like the concept and areas for improvement such as transition usage and separating facts from the narrative.
Factual project research (kian devine) (1)
1) Video essays are short films that analyze a topic similar to an essay, often examining films, trends, or other subjects. They typically have a thesis, evidence to support the thesis through analysis and examples, and a personal perspective from the creator.
2) Documentaries aim to inform viewers on a topic through factual reporting and research. They present information objectively and include multiple perspectives to give viewers a well-rounded understanding of the subject. Popular documentary styles include those focusing on nature, current events, and true crime stories.
3) Well-made video essays and documentaries employ structures and styles that engage audiences while effectively communicating their message. Examples include using narration, analysis of quotes and footage, and
Documentary developing ideas
This document discusses developing ideas for a documentary film. It begins by explaining that documentaries need to be well-planned with carefully chosen ideas to achieve their objectives. It then outlines different ways to generate documentary ideas, such as from personal experiences, historical events, or strong feelings about societal issues. The document also discusses the importance of research in the different stages of documentary production from initial planning to post-production evaluation. Finally, it provides guidance on creating an outline to plan a documentary, including developing a logline, researching the topic, and fleshing out the idea and story in a 1-2 page outline.

Evaluation - Radio Tech
The document describes the various technologies used to create a radio trailer, including a school recording studio to record scripted dialogue, Apple Mac and Garageband software to edit the audio files, an external recorder to capture interviews, and Final Cut software to edit and assemble the final trailer. The recording studio, Mac, and Garageband were convenient to use but limited by their location in the school. The external recorder allowed for interviews anywhere but produced lower quality audio and was bulky. Final Cut was familiar software but focused more on video than audio editing and computer access was restricted.
Forms Evaluation
The document discusses various conventions of documentary filmmaking and promotion. It analyzes how a student documentary project adhered to or broke conventions in the documentary's form, poster, and radio trailer. The documentary used handheld footage of civilians and police but broke conventions by not using archival footage or narration. The poster followed conventions but broke others regarding font sizes and colors. The radio trailer met conventions through its voiceover and music but broke them by not using more documentary footage.
Evaluation Question 2; Brand Identity
This document evaluates the effectiveness of connecting ancillary tasks like a radio trailer and poster to the main product of a documentary about Leicester, England.
It finds that the poster clearly associates the documentary with Channel 4 through use of its branding conventions. However, connections could be stronger by including the Channel 4 logo more prominently.
The radio trailer mentions the documentary will be "only on Channel 4" but connections to the One Leicester initiative about improving the city could be made more explicit in the dialogue. Overall, while some brand associations are clear, the links between the tasks and main product could be strengthened.
Storyboards Version 2
Storyboards are a visual planning tool used in film and video production. They consist of a series of illustrations or images displayed in sequence to demonstrate the key scenes, shots, and progression of a proposed motion picture or video production. Storyboards are an essential pre-production element that allows filmmakers to visualize how the final product will be constructed and flow before significant resources are devoted to actual filming.
Initial Storyboards
Initial storyboards were created to plan out the documentary, but the filmmakers acknowledge that the actual production may require changes to the storyboards as new footage is captured that was unexpected and needs to be included, or the order of shots requires editing based on what was actually filmed.
Props and Costumes
This document discusses props and costumes for a documentary filming police and nightlife in Leicester. The film crew will dress casually to blend in, while wearing hidden stab vests for protection. They may interview senior police management in suits, police officers in uniform with props like handcuffs, bouncers in black suits or trousers with communication devices, and club owners either in suits or smart casual clothes. The general public will likely be dressed casually in jeans and t-shirts or dresses.
Final questionnaire
The document summarizes the results of a questionnaire given to 50 people about their perceptions of the police and ideas for a documentary. Key findings include:
- The police uniform is most iconic and should be featured prominently.
- Most people believe the police are doing an adequate job.
- More patrols and police are needed to improve policing in Leicester.
- The documentary should show real footage of police apprehending criminals to provide a balanced perspective.
- Both the police and Leicester should be given equal priority and representation in the documentary and promotional materials.
Final Questionnaire
The document summarizes the results of a questionnaire given to 50 people about their impressions of the police and what should be included in a documentary about policing in Leicester. Key findings include:
- The police uniform is most iconic and represents the police best.
- Most people believe the police are doing an adequate job.
- Respondents felt there should be more police patrols and officers.
- The documentary should show real footage of police apprehending criminals to present a balanced perspective.
- Both a police and Leicester icon should be equally featured on promotional materials.
BFFC
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is an independent, non-governmental body that has classified films in the UK since 1912 and videos/DVDs since 1984. It uses age rating categories like U, PG, 12, 15, and 18 to provide guidance on the suitability of films and videos for different age groups. The BBFC applies guidelines for each rating that cover things like violence, language, sex, nudity, drugs and discrimination. Local councils can overrule BBFC decisions for films shown in their area.
Pilot Questionnaire
The document summarizes findings from a pilot questionnaire given to teenagers about their impressions of police. It shows that the teenagers believe police are not good at their jobs and may treat all youths as capable of rioting. However, this could be biased due to recent riots. The youths preferred having a presenter around their age to discuss police work and using archive footage to show past police work. For a radio trailer, the public preferred police explaining their jobs over using interviews, but interviews could still be included. The poster should feature an eye-catching image of a police officer in uniform to draw attention.
Form Research 2
The short documentary will focus on Leicester nightlife and the police who work to keep the public safe. It may be broadcast by the BBC, BFI, or Channel 4 and could also be shown to senior schools to inform them on this topic. Pre-production will involve documenting progress through video diaries and vlogs to record the filmmaking process and get informal interviews.
Form Research 1
This document discusses important considerations for conducting interviews and research for a documentary. It recommends interviewing subjects in a location relevant to their profession and using establishing shots to provide context. The information should be presented in an easily digestible way, like in the documentary "Super Size Me." Pre-planning interviews and ensuring subjects can clearly communicate is also advised. While spontaneity in filming is acceptable, the document stresses the importance of pre-production research to have a vision for the final piece.
TA of student presentation
The document analyzes a student's poster about a documentary they created. It notes that the poster effectively relates to the documentary's subject matter through a collage of images representing influences on children's lives. Additionally, close analysis of another individual in the poster determines they are a young female based on their skin and eye makeup. When compared to another Channel 4 poster, similarities in logo placement, caption style, and direct picture relationship to content are observed.
Textual analysis of super size me poster
The poster depicts the director Morgan Spurlock with McDonald's chips filling his mouth, showing the focus of the documentary on the health effects of excessive fast food. It highlights the critical acclaim the film received by listing awards won and positive quotes from reviews. The bold red and yellow title references McDonald's branding and calls out their former "Super Size" option.
! Source locations !
The document outlines three source locations for a short production: the door that the actor will leave through before needing to use the toilet, the kitchen where some of the action will take place, and the toilet that can be seen through another area.
Media CW - Technologies
The document discusses technologies learned through constructing a media product using Adobe Photoshop and Final Cut software. The author learned how to edit images, create posters, import and edit video clips, apply visual and audio effects, cut clips together, modify sound, and use color correction to maintain consistent lighting across clips filmed at different times. YouTube was also used for research, comparison, and textual analysis of film clips.
Media CW - Attract Target Audience
This document discusses specific media elements that are commonly used in action movies to attract audiences interested in realistic portrayals of criminal activity and law enforcement. It provides examples from films of each element:
1) A stakeout sequence from Bad Boys 2 is used to represent how stakeouts are conducted in real police work and can go wrong.
2) A secret KKK meeting on a pier in Bad Boys 2 mirrors how criminal activity actually takes place in secret locations.
3) The prevalence of firearms in action movies appeals to audiences because guns can dramatically change the pace of a scene from casual to a high-speed shootout.
4) Car chases are commonly seen when criminals flee the scene of a crime
Media CW - Institutions
The document discusses two potential film distribution companies - Warner Bros and Momentum Pictures. Warner Bros is a large, vertically and horizontally integrated company that has been in business for over 100 years and distributes films to major cinemas as well as its own theaters. Momentum Pictures is a smaller, more local UK independent distributor that releases around 20 films per year in theaters. The document concludes that Momentum Pictures would be a more realistic choice for a small production company due to its local presence.
Media cw crags
The document categorizes social groups that characters can belong to, including class, race, age, gender, and sexuality. It analyzes the social groups of five main characters - Oliver Maloney, James Waymont, Will Gent, and Arjun Nayar. All characters are described as middle-class, Caucasian males except for Arjun Nayar who is Asian. Their ages range from 17-18 years old. Gender and sexuality are addressed briefly.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
