Holly, Aaliyah & Verity
We researched on the web about what rock music content was made up of and we found
these statistics which we are going to discuss in our documentary.
The information found gave us a view from each
side of the ‘stage’. It showed how at some of the
concerts of certain rock bands the crowd created
the violence where as in other cases the bands
instigated violence by having certain elements of
their shows that were of a violent background. For
example:
Iron Maiden's mascot is "Eddy" a dead man who kills with great delight. According to Satanist and brutal murderer Richard Ramirez (the "Night Stalker"), it was AC/ DC's song "Night Prowler" that became part of his motivation to murder 30 people. He said the song gave him "inspiration. "Night Prowler" contains the stanza, "No one's gonna warn you, no one's gonna yell 'attack!' and you can't feel the steel until it's hanging out your back, I'm your night prowler.“
We used the website
orthodoxphotos.com to find
out information on the
different bands that were big
in the 1990’s; for
example, ‘Guns and Roses’
and ‘Iron Maiden’.
We gave out questionnaires to students
around college to see what people
believed and knew about the music
industry (focusing on Rock and Urban
music).
We also asked what people thought
were the main conventions of a
documentary and what they usually
looked out for. This was so we could
aim to include these in our
documentary.
6/10 people that we handed our questionnaire to said that they watched documentaries.
4/10 said that a well informed voiceover was a key element of a documentary.
6/10 said that the use of expert interviews and vox pops are both equally important elements of a documentary.
Fly on the wall footage scored lowest in the key elements question as 3/10 said it was important.
Facts and Figures scored the highest with a score of 10/10.
5/10 people said that appropriate music and sound effects were one of the most important key elements of a documentary.
We produced a risk
assessment for when we
are working with the
camera equipment, this
allows us to show that
we know the risks
involved while filming.
