Mind map
In my previous unit, we were tasked with imagining people in our lives which we would like to document. I came up with the ideas of my nan, who was a very community based person. She brought joy to the community and spread a bit of positivity to everyones days. My other idea was to document my uncle who has had the troubles of being 80% blind from the age of 12 years old. He had a rough child hood being picked on and getting no support from schools. This was the idea i liked most and am going to follow through with.
This is the video for my 2-3 minute long pitch. For my documentary i had the 2 ideas for my uncle and my nan. Both feasible therefore it wasn't an easy decision. However, the idea of my uncle with his blindness and life story will be more interesting for the viewer to watch. This will be a 3 to 5 minute long documentary on his life story and how he has overcome that obstacle in his life.
Finished Video
This video was shot in mind that Mark cannot see. Therefore to show that further, the shots where he is directly talking. Our out of focus to show that he cannot see. As well as, the bus stop shot. However, the shot with him playing the guitar is in focus as we are looking at him from a 3rd person perspective.
