SOME INTERESTING TOPICS

• Police. About a murder and talking to the murderer and seeing their point of view.

• Health and tracking someone's progress

• Supersize vs. super skinny and tracking their progress.

WHAT DID YOU LIKE ABOUT THE DOCUMENTARIES • I like how you were able to see another point of view and

were put in the shoes of a murderer and how they felt.

• Supersize vs. super skinny I liked how they showed why they became over weight and what triggered it of and also why they became underweight.

• I liked how in extreme A & E the tracked their progresses and then at the end they would show the person fully recovered and how they felt about the whole experience.

FORMS

There is not a lot of cuts in the documentaries that I watched

Also there is not a lot of transitions this because they do not edit it much as if they would it would take away the realism of the documentary.

In the murder documentary there was close ups of the hand gestures and the way she was nervous

However in the extreme A & E there was mostly long shots as they would want to show everything that was going on.
