This week we have started thinking about what our potential ideas for our documentary will be. After viewing some documentaries from past students it has given me an idea about what various ideas I already have and what is in fact achieveable. We also started a sheet which includes what ideas we have, what type of documentary it will be, who we will/can interview and do we need permission, our target audience the channel and time we will air the documentary.
The first idea I had was about the westernised children of London or how middleeastern children who come to a western country like the UK are swayed into conforming with 'western ways' and culture. This idea was possibly achieveable because it will have meaning as I someone who came from a another country. However, I have thought about the other aspects of the documentary in terms of interviews etc and I found that this could be limited and so might not be sufficient for the whole production. Another thing was the fact that this may offend some people as it is a sensative topic which I will have to make sure doesn't impact anyone.
The next idea was about the new London Mayor 'A Day In The Life Of Sadiq Khan' this idea is the most ambitious as Sadiq isn't a normal person and trying to interview him will be difiicult. I have contacted some people including Sadiq himself however have had no luck. So this idea isn't possible.
The final idea I had which is the one I am sticking with is, about twins. The fact that I have younger siblings that are twins will really help make the basis of the documentary successful and help me understand more about them as twins!
The next steps are to get consent from my twin brothers teachers to interview them and ask about their behaviour in class, in order to see whether they have similar things in common when in an acedemic environement and many other things.
