L03 : Proposal

Production Title –  On The Edge

Reason for following this issue – I feel that knife crime is a major problem in the local area and it’s associated with people my age. I have various different leads to follow as far as interviews and opinions go and feel that I can make a really strong and potentially useful social action video.

Length of Production – I would like the production to be about five minutes long and this will give me time to fit in a few proper interviews and then maybe some archive footage. I don’t want to go over this time limit because I think I might lose the attention of the audience.

Interviewees in Production - I have organized an interview with a man called Jamie Green who works for a charity organization called Swipe Music, their based in Slough so I will have to travel to get this interview.

I’m going to include interviews with Students and try and gather an idea of how the youth feel about this problem.

Production Angle – I intend to approach this project with a one sided view and that’s that knives and guns need to be off the street , so all interviews all archive footage come from the side of victims or people who strongly against knife crime.

This video needs to make people sad , angry and feel like they need to do something about knife crime so it’s important that I bare this in mind when putting the video together.

Production Layout – I want to open with a Bold Title then lead on to some archive footage of weapons and knife crime with a narrator talking the whole time and then lead onto some of the interviews that I have gathered. I want to add in slightly more positive images and put on a soundtrack as this is the part of the video I want to make people want to join in.

Target Audience – This video is mainly for students and young kids as they are usually the ones exposed to this kind of thing.
