My target audience for the documentary ‘Six
Months In’ was quite large as I wanted the video to appeal to anybody who
wanted to learn more about mountain biking. This is why I kept the interview
questions quite general rather than specific for the young male rider, I do
think only having one rider does slightly limit the viewpoint of the
documentary and could narrow down the audience to older or female riders as
they will find it more difficult to relate. However this should not be an
overruling factor of the video as it doesn’t generalize the sport or the
athlete. I attempted to target a large audience by just making the video more
about the riding than the person doing the riding, unfortunately I needed to put in the interview which might
put some people off watching the full documentary.
I feel the strongest element of my
documentary was the cinematography, it took months of filming and editing to
get all of the riding to look as clean and planned as it did in the final
video. This is something I hope the audience questionnaires will pick up on
when they watch the documentary. The filming
of the riding was meant to look fast paced to help make the video exciting and
make the sport itself look fun to take part in, I feel this worked well as the
clips are all cut quickly and look quite professional. The main weakness of the whole documentary was
probably Zac himself in the interview clips as he was quite rigid and boring to
watch talk, however the clips are still composed well and look great alongside
the riding.
