Research: Watching
On Monday 28th we watched a documentary Some Dogs
Bite. The documentary showed us the different job
roles that were involved and they went behind the
scenes of the making of the programmes. They also
talked about different stages they went through to get
to know and get into their character.
It helped us to get an understanding of what the format
for a documentary should be.
