Idea development

I have been analysing the channel 5 commissioning page and looking for a show that would fit into channel 5's schedule and be similar to the norm of what channel 5 usually screen on their channel.


I saw a paragraph from Sean Doyle  who is the commissioning editor at channel 5 asking for a documentary show that is "brave" and one that "jumps out of the schedule" that will really grab peoples attention. This gave me the idea to create a documentary of a very stigmatised subject, suicide. 


As I have struggled with mental health for the last few years I feel as if researching and creating something so meaningful will be very good to do, not just for my grade but for myself. Due to the fact that I will be so personally involved with the project It will feel more natural and less of a task to complete my project, which will be very helpful.

Seven - Textual analysis

I watched an 8 minute clip from the film multiple times and analysed different aspects of the construction of the scenes such as the mise-en-scene, the lighting, the camera, and most importantly for this particular film, the characters. This is because the characters in this scene are very similar to the characters I would like to construct in my coursework At this point in the movie, in the beginning of act three, after the previous story twists, our expectations of what is to come are already well set up. But here John Doe is very confident and repeatedly emphasizes the impact of his coming act. This raises even more the audience expectation and triggers an almost unbearable curiosity for the climax.

I can take much of the content of this article to help draft my own main article for my magazine double spread feature of my production. I analysed the article thoroughly taking notes on all the different media language elements that the writer used to make the article interesting and for it to seem recognisable to repeat readers (by basing the article around an actor interview).
