Commission Unit: Ideas

Some of my ideas to help with the documentary:

I want to make a fast paced documentary.
We should have an interview on location with one of the Street Pastors.
One of us should volunteer and walk around with someone and we can film it while the one of us can ask questions.

We should try and involve the camera/audience int he best way possible so they can really get into the story.
We should get an interview with a Street Pastor on location so in the background you will have things going on so the audience get to see rather than just a house background.

Commissions Unit: Chosen Topic

After a group discussion we have choson to do our documentary on Street Pastors, within My Hero.
Street Pastors is an organisation that looks after people on a night out, they do this by giving people water and holding their hair if they are sick, and giving girls flip-flops to replace their heels. They are just there to help people who need it at the time and to stop people ending up in the gutters. Some call them 'guardian angels'.

Commissions Unit: Research

This short clip gives an insight to what i agree a hero actually is, as people think its Superman or Wonder-women but these don't exist. The real hero's are those in everyday life that you walk past in the street they just never get noticed.


 

Commission Unit: Research

After careful thought my group has decided to choose 'My Hero' for our documentary, we have been going over ideas to way sort of topic to choose for the 10 minutes.
Some of the idea's we have come up with so far:

  1. Doing something good for the homeless
  2. Food Banks
  3. Street Pastors 
  4. Firefighters
  5. Lifeguards
  6. Working with the Elderly
  7. Charity work

Hero:
I think a hero is someone that has done something good for their country and the people in it. People that go to war or even do community or volunteer work i feel can be a hero as they do something to help people in some way.

The Dictionaries definition of a Hero:
A man of distinguished courage or ability, admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities.

Anyone can be a Hero but not everyone will.
