Development

Changes have been made to the ideas of the documentary, We as a group decided to change our approach on the subject of notts county as it was too cliche, so we have decided to look at the "unseen heros" of notts county to get their views on the club and what they do to contribute to the team, This will include interviews with people such as the club chaplain and the groundsman of the stadium and people who are actually unrelated to football.

I as the producer have been contacting the press officer to try and arrange the meetings with these people and to actually get permission to film. It has been tough but I think and hope that I will be able to pull it off or we might have to use our back up idea and do a documentary on the fans of notts county rather than the people who work there.

Further updates on the subject coming soon.

documentary

So we have had our first meeting as a group to decide on the roles for the documentary and what we want to base it on:
The documentary that our group is going to do is about the rivalry between notts county and nottingham forest this will include things like the history between the two clubs and why two football teams arose in nottingham, also we will be talking to the fans of both teams to see what their views are on the rivalry between the two teams and how they respond to how hooligans act etc.

Roles for Documentary

Alan Vickerstaff: Producer
Ben Thorpe: Director
Umar Hussain: Editor
Chris Swann: Sound

back to work

Back to university after a olong but interesting holiday period.

So we have been assigned the groups for our documentary which i am happy with however the subject in matter of notts county football club i feel is going to be hard to work with without making it a cliche documentary, but hey lets see how it rolls.
