THROUGH THE RIP

About the Project: This Documentary was made as part of the University degree I’m currently undertaking. The task was to create an original documentary approximately 15 minutes long using only camera and lighting equipment offered to 2nd year students by the university. Each Doco crew would consist of 5 group members total who would be Head Of Department for their chosen specialisation. Whilst it was a semester-long project, each group only had 3 days to carry out production. The outline for the assignment brief was to make a doco appropriate for modern television broadcast standards.
