Socail Networking

I have now decided against doing my production piece on the London riots, the main reason for this is because, I was finding it ver tricky to gathher lots of primary research, and video footage, of what was going on. The other reason why i changed my mind, was because of several programs that are coming to our Television screens in the up and coming weeks, for example: Inside Facebook Social Network (Film)- link below to watch clips of the film. I am also going to do another blog on the film. The Arab Spring http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1285016/

Production planning

Social effect of Facebook Have 3 actors Open sequence, will be one of the actors walking home from school, and going straight up in to their room and sitting on their computer, all evening, then sleeping, then getting up for school again, and carrying out the same routine. This represents modern day. The second sequence will be an actor that comes home from school, chucks his bag in, and within minutes he is going out to meet his friends at a local park, this is to represent what things used to be like, before people relied on social networking to chat to friends. The final actor will basically just be an interviewee, where I will ask several questions to try and prove a point about how much of an effect social networking has had on people life’s, the interview process will look like this… Main part, interviewing people: • Asking people: • How many friends on facebook? • How often they use it? • Whats the main thing you use on the site? • Is it your main use of communication Then turn it on its head, and say: • Where do you live? • How many people do you know down your road? • How often do you talk to these people? Then to close my documentary I will list lots of facts and statistics to back up my research.
