Project 7. Documentary: NAKED



For this project I was partnered with Vanna Chan who is also in my time class. 

We were supposed to make a documentary on a fake event/object/ topic and make it look as real and true as possible. For our project we had to list down 5 ideas each. We deiced on one of the topics I came up with. 

It was the Naked Disease. Which was based on a virus that ate up clothes fibres in a matter of seconds and that was contagious on other clothes as well. So we started by showing :
An establishing shot, going onto the victim facing the depth of this crazy disease that ate up clothes in her entire closet. Soon she puts on the news and saw a surveillance video of another girl going through that on the street. It had become a widespread disease by then. Further ahead we interview a scientist who explained us the disease and the precaution that they had come up with.  We ended it with a news article that said, Did you get naked yet?

We had an amazing time shooting and thinking about the story line. We were very excited and using a mix of premierepro and imovie was truly enthralling. We used all that we had learned so far in my time class.

During our critique the major let down was the sound quality, which was surprising as if you hear in the video there isn't much problem. But yes it was hard to hear a few parts in our video. But people seemed  to like our plot and found it hilarious. Our teacher said that he liked that how we choose a funny disease and made it look very serious. But just to keep the humour alive we did put a few extras to make it light and engaging. 

All in all, the class just keeps getting better and this project by far was the best I've had. 
Thanks, I hope you all like it!
