Panorama
Codes &
Conventions
The
Panorama Episode that I had watched was a Documentary based on a fundamental
school, in England. The Documentary used observational footage of the schools
day-to-day life.
The
observational footage that was displayed included arguments involving students
and teachers. This would be evidential to the prospect of the enforcement of
the documentary’s message.
The
Documentary uses a variety of fact and figures that are explained within a
voice over, covering the qualitative & quantitative research of the schools
factual information.
A
Female presenter, performs the voice over in the documentary, to include the
relative tone towards the certain subject that is being covered. The voice of a
Female presenter comes a cross as a more warming and caring vibe. Which would
be more fluid with the certain subject other than a Male presenter’s voice.
The
Males voice would be more immerse in a documentary about War, Geography or
Vehicles.
The
documentary also uses sequences and cut-aways in a fluent and efficient way.
They use the majority of cut-away in the sections of the voice over within the documentary. They collaborate both cut-away and voice over to create an overview to explain the facts and figures.
One of the main elements that was used in this documentary, was interviews. The interviews that Panorama imported in their documentary, included key people of the subject.
The key people that were displayed in the interviews came down to the Head Master and various teachers that had bonds and guidance's towards the students. The documentary also had shown interviews of students, that had disabilities or had been bullied and students that had problems with learning and more loud mouthed.
Panorama had interviewed these certain people to create an understanding of what the school is about and it's learning, and focuses on the opinions of the students and teachers to obtain different perspectives of each sides of the fence.
