Planning - Documentary Timeline

Reflection (15/03/25) - Upon completion of my documentary, doing this timeline helped me with my overall planning for the production. I stuck to my plan of having shots of mountains at the start of the documentary, to set the overall theme. I also stuck to the plan of having a 'raw' sound, by including a wind noise, which transitioned into dramatic music. I moved the voiceover talking about statistics to the end of the production, however instead I added a voiceover talking about Mountain Rescue, followed by an introduction to the interviewee (Chris Lloyd). I include footage of Mountain Rescue (not the HQ) and interview footage, like on the timeline, but the footage took up the majority of the production, simply because what was being said addressed the issue. I decided not to include footage of myself, simply because it was not needed. I didn't include a voiceover of myself talking about solutions, as they had already been adressed by Chris Lloyd. For the outro, I stuck with the timeline and included a final piece of drone footage, followed by the credits, being my brand logo.
