Cutting Edge
- Voice of God
- have subtitles for the interview as speech is not clear
- majority of shots on mise en scene as they want to set the scene and show the environment surrounding
- panning shot over map to show location
- out of focus shots give show viewer a distorted shot
- cross dissolves separate the different stories
- non digetic loud music represents youth and celebration of the boys release
- dialogue starts in interview but carries over other shots as they do not want to lose the viewers interest
- the interviewee is off set to one side
- distorted shot to hide identity
- include pathetic fallacy of weather
South Bank
- includes a presenter, left third of screen, shot of head to torso
- handheld cameras
- point of view shots
- more than one camera used to show different angles
The Hutton Enquiry
- split screen shows four locations
- narration sets the scene, voice over
- reconstructions
Arena
- Uses old footage
- text over pictures
- extreme close ups
- interviewee not looking to camera
From this research I have been able to identify some key codes and conventions of documentaries such as the positioning of the interviewee and the majority of shots being of mise en scene and location
