Planning and overall Print Advert

A group of people from different social groups were put together for our advert. This was to symbolise how well different social groups will socialise together from outside their own stereotypes.











































After taking many images and deciding on one that was usable, we decided upon the following image...

Filming

Filming and Editing Log

During the coursework, my involvement in the practical side has included filming, interviewing, editing and setting up equipment. I also took photos of my group members to show evidence of involvement.

Firstly, I filmed the 1st take of the ‘Goths’ interview, but a problem occurred whilst we were filming. There was a technical fault with the cameras microphone. I only realised this when I had to capture this interview on Adobe Premiere. The second take of this interview, I conducted the interview for the ‘Goth – Callum McInness’.

Whilst other interviews were being conducted by my fellow group members, I took over editing. I edited interviews that had already been captured. I edited the interviews following the running order for the first 5 minutes of the documentary to make sense of what point was being made in our documentary.

Voiceover Script

Opening Title Images play- “Goths, Punks, Scallies,Moshers, all names given to groups of teenagers today, groups in society called subcultures, so what is a subculture?”

Opening Title

Voxpop

“There is a lot of stereotyping of teenagers today, and most teenagers conform to that stereotype because they are part of one of the subculture groups but why do teenagers feel the need to be apart of a group?”

Mr.Quinn Interview

“What do the people who have been stereotyped in the past think?”

Callum McIness interview
Dean Carr Interview
Lee Farragher interview
Lisa Smeadley interview

“So there are people who conform to these subcultures for a feeling of belonging and to give themselves an identity but is peer pressure something that exists in these groups? Take the story of Rhys Jones for example, he was shot and killed by Sean Mercer after he was caught up in a crossfire between two groups, groups that conformed to one of the stereotypes of subculture.”
