My opening point of view/idea would be some statistics on twins in the population and their development in the womb. Ideally I would like my target audience to be engaged with my documentary, therefore I want them to watch it and ask questions making them think about the topic deeper, and for them to feel enlightened by them understanding the biology of twins, also there could be twins in my audience so I'd like them to social and personally interact and identify with the topic. I will achieve this by making sure that the facts/statistics I give are quick and snappy so that my audience don't get bored but also give them time to absorb the information. I will could also achieve this by carrying out a few fun activities with some of my twin participants to make the documentary engaging. By the end of the documentary I would like to have understood my twin brothers themselves and give my audience a concluding statement about my journey in finding out about twins.
Section 1: Introduction
Who? The introduction will be me introducing the topic of twins and doing a voice over of some archive footage of twins.
What? Showing footage of me introducing the topic and some archive footage(video and images) with a voice of me talking. This is to grab the audiences attention from the start.
Where? I will be on the vauxhall bridge introducing the topic.
Duration? I think that this section will probably last roughly 1 minute long, because each shot or image lasts only a few seconds.
Section 2: 1st Interview
Who? Dr Harris Juliette a researcher from Kings College London, working currently at St. Thomas Hospital.
What? Interviewing by asking questions on her current research programme/work, twin relationship and interaction and what her findings have been?
Where? St. Thomas hospital, twin research center near London Eye.
Duration? I reckon this interview will last about 10 minutes in its entirety, because I don't want the documentary to be all interviews.
Section 3: 1st Experiment
Who? Twins from school : (Jasmine & Ashley) , (Tara & Tamara), (Betty & Marta).
What? Conducting experiments such as a shape game where each twin can't see their sibling and I ask them to pick a shape to see whether they pick the same or not.
Where? I will be filming in the drama studio in school because there is good lighting there, this will add an atmosphere to my documentary.
Duration? This section will probably take up about 10 minutes because of the number of participants.
Section 4: 2nd Interview Who? Nancy Segal a selling author who has written many books on twins also a Professor of behaviour and psychology of twins from the University of California (USA).
What? A skype interview asking questions about her work and her studies into twins, also what her current work is? and the many books she has written.
Where? This will be done on a skype call from home because she is in the USA therefore I cannot interview her in person.
Duration? This section will probably around 10 minutes long, however I can cut some of it out depending on what information I find relevant to the documentary.
Section 5: Facts on Twins
Who? There will be no one in this section, I will be talking over a voice over.
What? This part will show facts and statistics following the interview with Nancy about what she tells me. This will require me to research into those facts.
Where? There is no place where this would take place because I am not filming anything.
Duration? I think this section is going to take up about 2 minutes maximum but it depends on the quantity of facts I provide.
Section 6: TEDS (Twins Early Development Studies
Who? I will be interviewing a PHD student ( Dr Ayorech Ziada )into the cognitive behaviour and psychology of twins at the twin research center TEDS.
What? Interviewing a researcher on twins cognitive behaviour and psychology, asking her on her current work and to share some of her findings whilst researching.
Where? This will be done through a skype call from home because she cannot have the interview in her workplace.
Duration? I think that it will probably take us up to 10 minutes to carry out the interview.
Section 7: Telepathy researcher
Who? Dr Göran Brusewitz is a PhD student and a researcher working in Sweden researching into telepathy of twins.
What? This will be an interview asking questions about what evidence if any is there on telepathy on twins, and his work, also to share some of his data from his research with me.
Where? The interview will take place through a skype call because he is not in the UK.
Duration? I think this will probably be around 10-20 minutes long, this is because it is a huge topic and therefore needs the longest time to be looked into.
Section 8: Shopping Experiment (Testing for telepathy)
Who? Hannah and Elizabeth- Twin girls from my school who are identical.
What? I will conduct an experiment with them where I will take them on a 'shopping trip' and ask them individually to pick a summer outfit. Once they've both picked I will see if there is a similarity between what they've picked.To make the experiment effective I will conduct the same experiment but this time in controlled conditions, that is getting two friends of the twins and seeing whether they pick the same item of clothing as each other. This way I will have a data of results which I can compare and conclude from.
Where? We will go to a shopping mall and pick which shop to go into for the experiment.
Duration? I think that this will take the longest time so around 20 minutes max.
Section 9: Twin Brothers (Yousef & Younes)
Who? Yousef and Younes, my twin brothers.What? This section of my documentary will have my twin brothers talking, but this will be an ongoing thing throughout the documentary.
Where? I will shoot this at home, because I can therefore get my brothers to answer everything thoroughly unlike somewhere else where they may not give their best.
Duration? Because this scene will come now and then throughout the documentary I can't put a time on it. However, It will probably take 15-20 minutes altogether.
Section 10: Conclusion
Who? This section will only have me talking threw a voice-over about what I have learnt and what everything has taught me about my twin brothers.
What? This section will have the summary and conclusion for everything discussed and what I have learnt, what it has taught me about my twin brothers. Also the credits is going to go here too.
Where? There is no location because it is not filmed, or I am not filming anything.
Duration? This would probably take up to 2 minutes because of the voice over.
im yousef hi
