A mockumentary on funny incidents

Some of the initial ideas we had come up with...

We then thought to produce a short documentary on the musician, songwriter and chef, Levi Roots. It would be about how far his career has progressed since appearing on Dragons’ Den, and what he is currently doing. We have been able to get hold of Levi PR Agents and they have agreed to let us interview him sometime in mid to late October but they will give us a date and time, nearer the time.

The Final idea...

We thought to make a start on our documentary by creating the start of it. This was by using various archive material of Levi on Dragons’ Den, which we then edited giving it a black and white effect, emphasising that it’s in the past. We then did voiceovers over the archive footage before the titles roll. The best titles for our documentary that we have come up with are “Levi Roots-Making of a Mogul” and “Roots to Success”. We were also thinking of combining the two calling it “Roots to Success – Making of a Mogul”.

We have also created a Prezi, which is an interactive presentation which is very visual and engaging. Our Prezi was based on research that we has carried out on Levi Roots from his background, appearing on Dragons’ Den and what he does now. Our Prezi can be viewed by following the link below...

Creating a Prezi

A student from our school acted as Levi Roots for a short interview. This is so we could gain some practise before we meet the real person as well as to try out various camera angles so we know what and how were going to shoot / film the interview on the day.
