Here is a process where we went through our script and made many changes to try and improve on the story telling of our drama piece. We also added some stage directions and started a shot list for the film.
About a girl is about someone who doesn’t necessarily get along with their parents. Talking about how she would love to be a singer, having very innocent and child like manners, talking about ice creams and how her dad is a footballer ect. However, she is also keeping a large secret which is revealed at the end when she dumps a baby into the canal. The approach is a very realistic drama, almost in the style of a documentary, where the girl talks about her family and her dreams for when she grows up. Which helps to follow the drama form because it shows the character talking about lots things which causes her to rapidly change emotions/ I like the film because I believe it is successful at showing a troubled teen that may not really get along with her parents. However, I believe seeing the baby come out of the bag at the end was rather unsuccessful for the character in terms of a drama. This is because when we see the baby there isn’t really any emotional response from her. It
Overall I believe that the documentary went well. We managed to capture lots of vox pops and was able to create a short narrative for our main structure. Unfortunately at the start we had to change our ideas because the topic we wanted to focus on, we never captured enough supporting material to ensure that we would have a clear narrative for our documentary.
