Our Documentary on Baldock (Part 1)

So far we have planned our documentary.
We have designed a front cover and posters to advertise the film throughout school and Baldock. We dressed up in characters from the film for the cover, and borrowed certain items of clothing from the drama department to create the perfect look during our photo shoot that took place after school.

The Granny
Rosie Lansbury is dressing up as the granny for our film. She features also in this outfit on the cover, but she isnt giving much away through a picture! We want her to open the beginning scene with a grandmother's tale that introduces the whole doucmentary in a creative way.

The Scuba Diver
Antonia Hunter (myself) is dressing up in the scuba diving suit! We thought it would be rather interesting to have me in a wetsuit because there is a pool that is no longer there any more, so i will think it is and go looking for it! I'm in the suit on the front cover because it makes it a lot more amusing to look at if we are all different characters. There aren't only the three characters in the documentary, there are a lot more, but we thought for the cover there should be a contrast between the three.

'Marilyn Monroe'
Gemma Clayton is going to be the Marilyn Monroe of Baldock! She isn't going to sing or anything, but she is going to be the icon outside the old langerie factory: Tescos! We used the idolised woman to feature Gemma against because she was a very famous woman in the 50's, and we want different eras to be in the film. She is again a very different character from the Granny and the scuba diver- this will make the front cover a lot more interesting, not to mention the film!

Our documentary, as you might have guessed, is leaning on the comedy side of things. We want to have one that can be aimed at all ages, and keep them entertained! We have created some scene ideas and are thinking of more characters apart from the ones on the cover at the moment!

Today we will be going out and photographing locations around Baldock for us to film.
