5 Minute Documentary

Recommended Posts

Had to make a 5 minute documentary for Uni. I'm much better at narrative films, but for a first go I think this went okay.

The initial aim of the film was to investigate why we do extreme sports, and also take a brief look at the work of a local charity called 'Giving Young People Opportunities', who help to fund and build skate/bmx facilities in the Grimsby/Cleethorpes area.

I didn't want myself to be in the video at all, but I couldn't use a camera from Uni unless I had consent forms signed by parents of anyone under 18: therefore interviews investigating why we do extreme sports went straight out the window <_<

So now it features me riding my bike for those bits instead, enjoy.

Cheers.

That was pretty cool! Some great shots in there. Looked really professional!

Did you use the maybeshewill track after hearing it on my brakeless video or are you a fan? Merely wondering if they were more popular than I thought. Not too fussed you used it seen as it was for a uni thing.

your brakeless side hop 180 off on that thin post was nice (Y)

Couldn't you have just got the parents to sign the forms? :P

Enjoyed that, although Sass should get off the drugs before being in a documentary :P

Sass isn't very good in front of a camera, so I've got a lot of respect for him for doing the interview!

Big fan of maybeshewill! I wanted to use 'he films the clouds part 2', but I didn't want to cut into the track. I have seen your video though, some really ace riding, and I think the song suited your vid better.

And yeah I probably should have got people to get their parents to sign consent forms, I just didn't envisage 13-16 year olds being very reliable getting them signed and back to me :P

Cheers guys!
