suitable for under eighteens. i.e.-no swearing, nudity, offensive language, horror or
drug use.
•The watershed in the UK is 9pm.
Some of the video games

entertainment shows like reality TV, US drama, game

CSI Big brother

19. Channel five also have shows like the gadget show
which is a show that gives people the latest technology
news and gives the consumer information of how to get
the most out of their gadgets.
Our documentary is also about technology so
we decided to put it on channel five because it
has a similar programme.
The gadget show target knowledgeable people and
also a more casual audience so people who watch
the gadget show would be interested in our
documentary.

20. Time of documentary
We’ve scheduled our documentary at 9pm because some of the footage we will
be showing are from video games which have an age rating of 17+
This is suitable for our target audience because they are between

9pm is when the watershed in the UK begins so if we show our
documentary at this time we wont be breeching any OFCOM regulations.

research and planning
• Youtube/4od to watch inspirational documentaries
– brief clips of searching for documentaries
• Powerpoint to present ideas with print screens of
documentaries as evidence of inspirations – use
still shots or brief clips
• Flash to create examples of titles – film, but not too
long
• Camera to both film and take pictures – show some
of the pictures taken
• Macs to edit – Adding transitions, sound, voice
overs and titles. Film

On I movie we could also on indesign with a
show how we uploaded voiceover describing the
videos and images from action as well as showing

36. Technologies used in research and
planning.
• Internet
• Magazines and newspapers - to
research different magazines

•Images:
•Camera - to take pictures for the double page spread and
advert
•Game consoles - images for the advert
•Scanner - used to copy detailed version of double page
spread drawing.
when we start talking show us in front of computer with
powerpoint
then have voiceover with images of indesign, photoshop,
camera(taking pictures), scanner(show scanning drawn images)

39. We chose these three:
