• The set I used to film my monologue sequence of the
documentary was built by my dad in his studio, he
constructed the walls and mounted the TV. I dressed
the set for my documentary however, it was important
to me that the backdrop was themed to suit the theme
of my documentary, so I chose to decorated with all my
Sunderland AFC memorabilia. I draped the flag and
scarves over the shelf, securing the scarf with tape and
kept the scarfs secure with a Styrofoam mannequin
head that I also dressed in a Sunderland themed
bucket hat. I also utilised the TV by streaming a picture
of the documentary’s thumbnail to it, I am pleased with
the way it looked and think it does a great job of
creating an environment for the video.

• To film my monologue, I used my dad’s studio and camera set
up as well as his boom mic, which was positioned just out of
frame in this photo. This set up was helpful as it is exactly
how I pictured the set and cameras looking when I wrote the
script. I read the script from a teleprompter that was
positioned just underneath the camera, so I didn’t have to look
away to read the script. Filming my monologue was difficult as
I had to adjust to using a teleprompter for the first time; filming
the whole script took approximately 3 hours including brakes
and set-up. During filming, we had no technical issues
however physical exhaustion was certainly a problem to
overcome so to combat this I took regular breaks between
different sections of the script.

• In the filming process I used different equipment to
create my documentary. Firstly, I used a canon DSLR
camera to film myself, I also attached a teleprompter to
the camera to make it easier to read the script. The
teleprompter was an app on an iPad which was placed
in a configuration such as the one on the right. For the
lighting, I used a bright overhead light (such as the one
on the right) to make sure the shot wasn’t too dim, and
my face was lit to the proper lighting.
