Laura Manners, Corry Raymond and Jake Coates propose to make a 5-minute documentary about local musician Ryan Inglis and his involvement with the charity Footprint. The documentary will feature live music performances and interviews spliced together, as well as archive footage. It will tell Ryan's backstory and focus more on his music than on Footprint. The team believes Ryan's story is interesting and deserves to be shared, with minimal budget needs since they can use Ryan's music for the soundtrack. Their goals are to enter the documentary into a local film competition and allow Ryan to use it for promotion.

Proposal
Laura Manners (me), Corry Raymond and Jake Coates (Entertainment
Pictures/E.Pics) are the media production team working on this project.
We propose to make a short expository documentary, of about 5 minuets in
length, exposing the life of Ryan Inglis, a local musician/songwriter. It will
also have the sub-focus of the charity Footprint, a charity that gives musical
instruments to under-privileged children, but only briefly as we are more
interested in Ryan’s involvement and what he has done for it.
After doing research we found multiple ways of approaching this
documentary; Ryan Inglis has a very interesting back-story as to how he
became a musician.
This program is aimed towards being aspirational to music students as well
as entertaining and factual as the documentary will mostly contain live
music, with the audio from interviews played over the top, in a similar style
to the documentary Live at Abbey Road, also occasionally showing archive
footage (sponsored skydive, vlog, photos etc.) in a similar style.
We will have no problems in getting the music because we will be using a
selection of Ryan’s own music as the soundtrack, meaning we will have no
copyright issues. The interviews will also be easy to set up as the people we
would like to feature are easily accessible. Our budget will also be quite small

as the main costs are hiring the crew and renting out the rooms for the live
shows.
This idea is good because it’s a really interesting yet unheard story, which
deserves to be told. There aren’t many documentaries with a similar idea,
especially not with a musician like Ryan.
We would like for this documentary to eventually be entered into a local
short film competition to win £1000, and then to be used by Ryan for
promotional purposes.
It will be finished in the week before the 5th December (the deadline).
