Assignment 3.1
I am about to write an analysis report on three types of moving image
which are factual, fictional and promotional. 
     
    
The target audience for this documentary would mainly be for children, teens
and adults since this documentary contains some scenes which may not be
suitable for kids. The purpose of this documentary is to acknowledge the
audience about the rare and exotic animals moreover to show some of the
wildlife of south African animals. The main focus of this documentary was
specifically, on white lions which reside in zoos in south Africa. The platform
for this documentary would probably be TV broadcast or digital download
since that’s the most common way of audiences viewing the type of moving
image which is factual. This documentary attracts audiences in many ways
since it shows the reality of nature and the animals out there who are
suffering or not. It also attracts audiences as many of them like lion as there
favorite animal so the documentary on those lions brings more interest to
the audiences as they want to know more information about them.
Some of the key features of this documentary are the positioning, structure
(Factual).
 
Another key feature that includes in this documentary is the
information. The information provided of the rare and exotic animals in this
documentary is extremely high quality as they are useful and accurate. This
documentary adds a lot of information and acknowledges audiences about
animals especially white lions as it provides you with some of the key dates
and other useful information. Some of the technical elements used in this
documentary include the mise en scene. The setting of this documentary
was took in a zoo in South Africa showing the wildlife of these exotic animals.
This documentary contained many movements such as slow motion, zoom
in, zoom out and slow motion etc. I believe that these movements were used
so that the audiences could really feel the pain and see the nature of these
animals clearly.
 
The next category for technical elements is camerawork
some of the shots that are used in this specific documentary are:
 
 
·        Extreme long shot (They give a general impression)
·        Long shot (shows the life size of animals corresponding to the real distance between audience and the screen)
·        mid shot (Shows the detail of animals and nature)
·        close up (Concentrates more on white lions and other animals moreover specific details of mise en scene. The use of close up shot in this documentary shows the importance of animals by showing their expressions)
·        Extreme close up (Shows the dramatic effect and emotions of the animals)
 
There are about five camera movements I would say that are used in this
Documentary these are:
 
·        Panning (Camera moved from left to right to show some of the action scenes that are happening with the lions)
·        Slow motion (Shows the lions more slowly so audiences could adapt more detail about them)
·        Tracking (This movement is used often in this documentary to create a very smooth movement and show a clear vision of the lion’s lifestyle)
·        Zoom in/Zoom out (Many of these movements were used to show the lions emotions)
 
Few camera angles were also used such as:
 
·        Birds eye view (Showing the nature of the zoo in South Africa)
·        Low angle (used to show some of the strong lions)
·        High angle (shows the overview of all the lions)
 
The last category used in this technical element is the sound, the sound in
This type of documentary is extremely important as it gives some effects to
It without sound the video will be lifeless. For example, if a lion is running and
They add a sound to it would create some sort of suspense for the audience
Without sound it would be dull. Use of ambient sound was used in this
Documentary as you could hear the waves and wind.
 
Fictional: Ramz - Barking [Music Video] | GRM Daily
 
The target audience for this Music video would mainly be teenagers as some
Of the lyrics only teenagers and adults may understand not young children.
 
Promotional:
