production log 4
What progress did you make since your previous entry?
Since my Previous log entry from me editing my footage on Final Cut Express on the IMac and using Live Type for the names of the people that I have interviewed this production log I started to edit my Skype video call interview which I interviewed professor Chris Griffiths of Barts university on how does asthma affect people daily and also how does this respiratory disease effects women that have asthma which are pregnant.
What logistical challenges did you face and how did you overcome them?
The logistical challenges that I have face in this production log entry was editing the Skype video call interview because this interview with professor Griffths provided me with a lot of information about how women that suffer from this respiratory disease and also pregnant how does this effect the new born baby and also how does this respiratory disease effect asthmatics daily. The logistical challenges was to find the key section of the interview that I needed for my documentary and I overcame this by finding the section of footage that I needed.
What technical challenge did you face this week and how did you overcome them?
This week the technical challenges that I have faced was importing the footage of the Skype video call interview with Profffesor Griffths onto Final Cut Express this software program didn't allow me to import the Skype video call. I didn't know what to do so I imported the recorded Skype video call onto IMovie then started to edit the video but the main technical section was editing the interview because it was 20 minutes log but the interview has to be 45seconds so I cut this down. I overcame this by after editing the footage on Imove I imported this interview on Final Cut Express and this worked.
What target do you aim to achieve before your next entry?
My target that I aim to achieve before my next production log entry is to do more Vox pops by traveling to different locations around London and asking general public what they think about this respiratory disease.

Final Proposal
AimsThe aim of my documentary is to educate people about asthma. I will explain what is asthma is and what the symptoms are. What treatments are available currently and which ones are being developed.
Content
My documentary will be performative. It would feature interviews from Dave Bassi a Respiratory & Allergy Therapy Specialist. at GlaxoSmithKline a leading pharmaceutical company who has agreed to discuss ''We can speak on the impact that asthma has on patients, the symptoms, it’s causes and how it is treated''. I will be interviewing my mother who has experienced me suffering from an asthma attack. And also interviewing Professor Chris Griffiths, MA D Phil FRCP FRCGP who is a professor of primary care at Barts University who will be discussing what to look out for during an asthma attack and the effects on the body from asthma. Another interview with be with Dr John Dickinson head of the respiratory clinic/lecturer I have also contacted former Olympian Lord Sebastian Coe. My last interview with be with a personal trainer Annette Foulds specializes in asthma and fitness.
Target Audience
Format
My documentary mode will be performative the conventions that I am going to use is voice overs, presentation and also archive footage. I will also be the presenter in my documentary and I will be able to explain to the audience what my documentary is all about. By explaining to them about this medical condition and also what is the major risk of asthma e.g. what are the symptoms are and how does this respiratory disease affects the body physically,
Genre
My documentary will help educate the target audience that will be watching by interviewing experts about my documentary which is all about asthma an respiratory lung disease. For my documentary I would find out the facts and figures and i will go into more detail about this serious medical condition. By doing this I want to provide as much information to the target audience because they might not know as much about this respiratory disease that millions of people suffer from asthma e.g. this condition affects 5.4 million people in the United Kingdom. It affects 1 in 12 adults and can be developed at any age.
Style
In my documentary I will have different styles, such as the main one is the location that has to suit the topic that I am talking about. I would also make sure that the camera shot that I will use look formal and professional when I will be interviewing the experts about my documentary and this would look more presentable for my audience to watch. The camera shot that I would use e.g. long shot of me explaining about this respiratory disease and I would also use medium shot and also close ups of me, asking me,asking the experts questions. I would also like to use a Go-Pro camera for one scene of demonstrating a race or an different trail of exercise with an fitness expert that i am going to interview to show the audience what it is like to be an asthmatic. The 3 things that will influence me when creating my documentary will include graphics about asthma such as an graph of how many people were diagnosed with this respiratory disease and also an archive footage of what are the first stages suffering from an asthma attack. I would also use sound from all of the experts i would use background music but if this doesn't fit when editing I would not use it. The last style that I will use for documentary is editing I will try and add lots of jump cuts from the experts that I will be interviewing about asthma.

Analysing The Competition
BBC
News
The first show that I have chosen to analyze,
as a competitor to my show is BBC News. The BBC News is broadcasted on BBC one,
BBC NEWS and BBC Parliament. The news
runs 24 hours on BBC News and BBC Parliament however on BBC One there are
certain time slots usually between 1-1:30pm, 6-6:30pm and 10-10:30pm to cover
the latest events in the world. The aim of BBC News is to raise awareness to
the audience members about what is occurring around the world. It summarizes
the main events and looks into certain fields such as politics, technology,
sports, etc.
As from the diagram showed above we can see
that BBC News on BBC One has 5.46 million viewers. This figure is based over 7
days therefore it is the average amount of viewers over the 7 day period. BBC
News is similar to my show in terms that both shows are formal and they both
hold interviews. Also both shows contain archive footage as they relate to
past events.
The video above contains examples of archived
footage as well as interviewing techniques from BBC News. From 0.03-1.09 the audience
sees archived footage of Danial Radcliffe acting in play as well as portraying
his character in Harry Potter. Also Danial Radcliffe is interviewed from 1.21-
2.11 about his career and personal life. I believe my show will be able to
compete with BBC News as my show is very specific to medical topic asthma
whereas BBC News is very generalized. Also BBC News often portrays many
negative topics such as crimes which makes the audience members feel unhappy
whereas my show is much more educational as I show the audience how to deal
with asthma attacks. In conclusion my show provides solutions to a vital
medical condition and the news only questions why negative issues are occurring
in the world.
The
Great British Bakeoff
The next show I decided to compare to my
show is The Great British Bake off. My show is very educational as I give
details about the human anatomy whereas the Great British Bake off provides an
insight into ingredients, which make up food. The Great British Bake off aired in August and the
show for this year has ended. It was on BBC One channel every Wednesday
and its duration is an hour. The goal of this show was to take talented
candidates and make them compete in a cooking competition. Each week a candidate
is eliminated until there is a winner. This show has been designed to target
people who have a passion for food and want to learn to become better bakers.
The opening day of the Great British Bake off was 11.62 million, which were far
superior figures than all the other shows on BBC one
Both shows are very educational and they
both appeal to viewers who want to learn more. I believe my show can have
better viewing figures than the Great British Bake off as I am firstly talking
about a disease which affects 1 in 12 people therefore it is recognized
globally. This will engage audience who have asthma or who have family members
with asthma. Also people can relate more to their bodies compare to food and my
show is more scientific.

DIY
SOS: The Big Build
The last show I will be analyzing is DIY
SOS: The Big Build, which is based on builders going around to fix people’s
home. The show particularly helps people
who have difficulties such as being disabled or who do not have enough money to
complete their house. It is on BBC One on Thursday at 9:00pm and its duration
is 1 hour. The viewing figures of DIY SOS: The Big Build is 4.5 million which
is fairly low compare to the rest of the other shows on BBC One. It should also
be noted that BBC One has their own website and app which allows people to
stream recorded shows called BBC Iplayer. This allows people to watch shows on
their devices such as phones or tablets while they are on the go.
The similarities between my show and DIY
SOS: The Big Build is that both will initially show the problems then follow it
up with the solutions. For example DIY SOS: The Big Build usually shows the
extent of damage to a house such as a leaking roof and then they will tell the
audience what is the best way to solve this. Similarly my show explains asthma
and how fatal it can be such as having an asthma attack and then I will explain
what to do in the case of an asthma attack. Also both shows have expert
opinion, DIY SOS: The Big Build have experience builders who are able to do any
house building jobs and my show has a GP who has knowledge about asthma. I
believe my show will be able to have better viewing figures than DIY SOS: The
Big Build since my show is unique whereas DIY SOS: The Big Build is just
another building show which has to compete with similar shows such as Cowboy
Builders. MY show is very specific and there is not any other show, which looks
at asthma. My show will appeal to people that have medical knowledge as well as
people who want to learn more about the human body.

Conclusion
Based on the research above I would make
sure my show does not appear at the same time as BBC News and The Great British
Bake off. This is because the viewing figures suggest both of these shows are
very popular which means it will be difficult to attract viewers to change from
two very established shows to watch a new show. The audience is unlikely to
take the gamble of watching my show since it is new and they would not be sure
of good the quality of the show is. I do believe my show could easily compete
with DIY SOS: The Big Build as the viewing is only 4.5 million and I think
people be more interested in my show than interior design. However both and The
Great British Bake off are only broadcasted once a week which means there are
plenty of other days to put my show on which means I would not need to compete
with these well known TV shows. This means I will need to ensure my show is not
on a Wednesday or Thursday evening therefore I have five other days to put my
show on air. I don’t believe I would need to worry too much about BBC News even
though it is a popular show. This is because BBC News comes on various times of
the day so viewers can easily watch BBC News at a later showing. Also the BBC
News has its own channel, which shows the news 24 hours a day, not to mention
there are so many other news outlets such as Sky News. The news is very easy to
obtain such as through news apps, websites, newspapers, etc, whereas my show
about asthma is not an easy field to obtain the latest information.
