Seeking Permission

Here is a print screen of a seeking permission we made to Lady Gaga asking if we could use a limited amount of her longs on our documentary. The reason we choose her songs was because she supports the LGBT community and she is an artist that captivated well the young generation and they are our target audience. 


In this web site shows very clearly that is illegal to use any product without the permission of the owner, so thats why we are making sure we ask them to use it

Evaluation Questions


This are the Evaluation questions we should be considering throughout the research, planning and construction of our documentary. It is handy to get the questions now even though we are only answering them after our construction, because when we have to answer them we know already what and where to look for


1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? 

2. How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts? 

3. What have you learned from your audience feedback? 

4. How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?

Research on Videos and Campaigns that support LGBT

This is a campaigns to show that at the beggining its difficult but after you accept youself
 IT GETS BETTER!



Since the beginning we were thinking to use the LGBT flag on our interviews. Therefore we went to research more and look if people use the flag a lot and we found a video that shows on the background the flag, and inspired us to use on our on documentary.  



Because we don’t know much about the subject we are researching a lot, in classes we being doing structures for our documentaries and presentations of plans so we can start filming as soon as possible. It's a challenge for us because the subject is so open and we have so much to talk about but because its 5min we have to be careful with what we select to use. 

Targets:
