My Documentary

I've seen past documentaries for this assignment where I am unable to understand what is going on and probably miss the message completely. When developing my documentary I wanted there to be a clear link between my installation and the purpose of the documentary.

I've created a documentary very much based on an expository mode, where I've used images and clips of my installation to support the theme and purpose of the documentary, rather than the installation itself being the sole focus. I find this technique creates a stronger argument, with more focus on the themes involved and in-turn probably involves the viewer more and creates a greater emotional response. Overall I think the expository mode of documentary is a clearer way of representation when dealing with relatively unknown technologies (Crysis), ensuring that the main idea behind the documentary can be realised by a broader audience.
