Interview with Sunita Pattani a Psychotherapist
Thursday, 18 December 2014
Reccie
Train Station:
I will be doing my interview with the stress specialist in a cafe as I am unable to go to their main office. As their office is in Chelsea I wont be able to travel to their office as it is outside of London. So me and the person getting interviewed are going to meet at a cafe in Waterloo or a cafe called Royal festive cafe.
Royal Festive Hall cafe:
This is an alternative place where I want to interview the stress specialist. As this cafe is a quiet place I feel it will the best to do my interview there. I will be travelling to this cafe by train and if necessary I will get on the bus. This cafe is based in Southbank which is close to Waterloo.
Waterloo Cafe:
This is the cafe where I am hoping to film the stress specialist. This cafe is based in Waterloo and I am hoping to fill in a small part of the cafe. I want to make sure I am not in anyone's way and that there isn't much noise which is why I will be in a corner.
Sunita Pattani's clinic
I visited Sunita Pattani in her clinic. The clinic is based in Chadwell Heath which is where I met her and also interviewed her. I interviewed her in one of the rooms in her clinic where no one was present as I didn't want to get in anyones way.
Chadwell Heath Academy School
I interviewed a support teacher as well as students for my documentary. The interviews were done at times when students were at lessons which meant I didn't come on anyones way and the noise level was also decent to film with. I choose locations at school where the lighting was also good and clear.
My house
I filmed an A-level students mother in my house. I decided to film in the living room at night as the family members were all busy and in their room or upstairs. I made sure I filmed during the night as I was aware that I wouldn't come in their way if I filmed during the night.

Location: There is no location needed in this section. This will be a scene with graphics and a voiceover which is why the location does not count for this section.
Duration:The duration for this will be short as it is just graphics with a voice over. I feel this ould last for 10 seconds on screen,
Section 3: Opening montage of what is going to happen
What:In this section I will have an opening montage and in this opening montage I will make sure I include what the documentary will include. Having an opening montage will be different and unique for a documentary which is why I want to do an opening montage.
Why:This is a unique idea which is not usually used in documentaries. That is one reason as to why I do want to carry it out in my documentary, I feel it will give my documentary a different touch to it. Allowing my audience to see an insight as to what my documentary will hold.
Who: In this part of the documentary I will not be in it, This is an opening sequence of all the shots. The opening montage will include all the relevant shots from the documentary into one section of the documentary.
Location:The locations will vary as throughout the documentary I will be in different places and also be apart of different location. All the locations will vary and in this section there isnt a significant location.
Duration: This section will not last long as it is an opening sequence. It will only last for about 10 seconds as I don't want to drag it out.
Section 4: Speaking about what the topic is
What:This is the section where I will speak directly to my audience, I will be speaking about the documentary title and what I want to present and find out in my documentary. Speaking about this topic will allow my audience to form a relationship with me and a presenter.
Why: If I speak to my audience about the topic it allows me to form a good relationship with the audience. Having this section will allow my audience to understand what I am going to do in my documentary.
Who: I will be in this section of the documentary as I will be speaking about what I will be finding out in the documentary.

Section 5: Vox pop
What:This is the section where I will interview random people and ask them three important questions. All the questions asked will be the same as it is necessary to make sure the questions asked are relevant to the topic. Asking the same question will allow me to see what people think personally.
Why:This is because I want my documentary to also have other people thoughts. By using vox pops it will make my documentary more interesting. It wont be basedon myself but other students in my school.
Who: I will have different students from my school being part of the vox pops. The vox pops I feel will be interesting if I use students who are different, and some who get stressed and others who dont. It would be good to see the difference.

Location: The location would be the outside of school as this is what I have decided to use as an establishing shot.
