Production plan

Layout and running order

Using a presentation format or a word document create a running order for your production.

Reseach and materials required

This one is self explanatory: create a list of research and materials, such as photos, survey, interview questions etc that you will need in order to continue with your production.

With this you will need evidence of the permission that you have accquired. 

Outline proposal

Choose one idea that you would like to pursue and create an outline proposal for it to present to the group. Your proposal should explain why it is relevant and would be successful.

Ideas for a factual production: pros and cons

Mindmap a number of ideas for a factul production looking at the pros and cons of each.
(this could be in the format of a presentation, a list, a table)

In depth analysis of a factual production

Go to  http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/ and choose one documentary to look at in depth.
Discuss what mode/s it would fit into and evaluate the conventions it uses with reference to specific eamples.

Remember to give key examples to explain which mode or modes you think it falls in to.
