![]() After reviewing our footage for the last month or so and looking at what we have, we needed to make another trip up to Bristol Zoo. Having our opening was a good start and we started to form the structure of our final product but we needed more footage and most importantly interviews to make the documentary flow and covey the conventions of documentary throughout our product. Having all ready got archive footage - we both knew this could be a part with a voice of God were we could have 30 seconds or so about the history of the zoo. This informs the viewer on the history as this documentary is Life Inside Bristol Zoo and it sets the scene. This with a small introduction will be about the first 2 minutes of our 5 minute opening of our documentary. We set off for the zoo on Weds 15th March having a plan to shoot external shoots (outside the zoo - traffic outside, visitors walking in, the front of the zoo) and internal shoots with more shoots of the lion (didn't get much of them last time) and all the animals of course. We also would try to get interviews with zookeepers as this was an important part and we only managed two short ones the first time we went up (Sun 15th Jan). We both knew that we would need filler clips and that we needed enough footage to fill 5 minutes of this project. We filmed everything we could spending 4 hours up at the zoo with a tripod and DSLR camera gathering footage. I also decided to film the main 'avenue' of Bristol Zoo so I could experiment with a time lapse of people walking past. When we get back to school - we will review the footage and see what we can use and look at the structure of how we want our documentary.
