Doccumentary Research

In Guns We Trust

This doccumentary uses techniques such as:

  • A negative image as the cover of the doccumentary, as you first see the image of a man holding a gun it presents a unknown, rough, dark figure. As he is holding a gun, but also wearing a satanic ring it presents a possible motif for his actions and suggests that the doccumentary will have negative connontations about gun use. 
  • This also has a religious aspect as the word GOD has been replaced with GUN also adding to the negative aspect of guns, potentially highlighting danger.
  • The use of black and white strat images mean you can see them in more detail which makes the information hard hitting.
  • The voice overs give a personal insight which makes the issue seem more real and relevant to an audience.
  • Also, the soundtrack is on edge and tense, the audience will associate that with the guns further presenting a dark use of guns. 
These aspects such as using a voice over and still images could also be used in my piece and will allow a contrast from video but also gives a sense of an issue being real and therefore attracting an audience to watch the piece. But it would also be thought provoking,
