Website work 19.1.21

 Today I have started to adapt my website to the conventions of the BBC website, after re-reading the brief again it came to my attention that I needed to emphasise this more. 

Update 14th January

 Looking at my generic research from April, I have been able to edit my website according to their conventions. In "the bad guy" and "bats, balls and Bradford girls" they all have their documentary to the left with scheduling to the right. 

I have edited my website to this format today.

I shall edit in underneath the documentary a piece of writing about the documentary for the audience to read.

Re-visiting my generic research

 I have taken a look back at one of my generic research documentaries. I have visited the website to view the layout it has, and this also allows me to recognise what I can add on, which will fulfil the call to action of encouraging young people to become involved in sport.

This BBC Scotland documentary website has clear layout and design, and so is a good example to follow. I may add the broadcast times again beside the documentary, or advertise the availability of BBC player for the audience. 

Update 13th January

 Today I am working on my website and adding in suitable features. 

After re-visiting BBC3 player, most documentaries are shown on BBC2 or player. As a result I have changed my approach and made BBC2 a broadcaster instead of BBC1.

I shall add on information such as timings etc. I have added in links for the images so clicking on it will take the audience to the specific website.

I would also like to make another form to check in with my target audience with my progress, and allow the 16-25 socially conscious audience to make comments on my documentary and website. This will allow me to tailor it accurately to the targeted audience of this documentary.

12th January update

 Today I have added on a competition box on my website. The aim for this is to engage my audience and encourage them to become more involved in sport.

The competition will encourage the audience to publish their own footage/images of them doing their favourite sport to win a riding lesson with talent Harry Bateman. 

Update from 11th January

 From my feedback, I have chosen to attempt to add a VoiceOver to introduce the talent to my audience.

I will work with this and edit accordingly to introduce the events that will follow.

Documentary update

 Documentary

The link above is to my documentary. I have edited my sound and added in both of my interviews. 

I shall send to my target audience group for any criticism and opinions.

Website rearrangement

 I have started to finalise my layout of the website to suit a BBC3 production.

I have added in scheduled timings on live television, as well as placing a space ready for the documentary to be placed upon finishing touches being done.

Audio work on documentary

 Today I am editing out unnecessary audio within my talent's voice over and starting to match the audio to the visuals.

What has been quite challenging is what clips of him talking I wish to cut back to have to be matched perfectly with the audio, but this is working well and so far so good. 

Documentary video update

 I have added a VoiceOver of Harry from an interview of how he started out after his introduction, and so am manoeuvring the clips around to suit the audio. 

I am very happy with my introduction and ending, however am working on the middle section/minute where the talent describes how his hobby turned into a professional career.
