LO4: Recorded Footage meeting Genre Conventions[✓]

Here I am showing how I have been following codes and conventions of trailers for football documentaries. I have used the Take Us Home Documentary from Amazon Prim, which is about Leeds United trying to earn a place back in the premier league. I have taken screen shots from the trailer to show how I have followed codes and conventions within my short film:
Convention 1:

Here I have shown how I have followed codes and conventions of documentary trailer because I have shown how I have used interview snippets within my trailer to help tell the story but not the whole story so that the audience would want to watch the film.
To add to this, I have used cometic techniques to make sure that my footage meets the standard set. It is clear from the Take Us Home Documentary, lighting is being used, I have sued soft boxes to create focus on to Andrew during his interview. I have paired this wit camera setting, by changing exposure and ISO, as I was using lights this was key. Pairing the camera and lighting together, meant I could create a high quality image and interview. For example, I looked at Leeds Take Us Home, and the featured interviews where done with focus on one person, which I have followed the convention of here.
Convention 2: 

Here I have shown how I have shown, how I have similar to the Take Us Home Trailer used a wide shot to show the football team playing. This is expected to be in use because both focus on football, it is expect that in the trailer it will showcase videos of the team playing.
With this, I had to use ambient lighting, similar to how the Take Us Home documentary likely captured these scenes. This is because of the fact, that I did not want to distract the players by bringing in such big lights. Additionally to this, it would have been a hard task to light the whole of the pitch it would be unethical do to this. However, changing my camera setting by upping the exposure and the saturation to make sure the camera and the picture met expected cinematic footage such as the this shown.
Convention 3:

Here are two behind the scenes clips from each of the documentaries. I have used a soft box light within my scenes to record them and create a low dimmed image which adds to the drama for the scene. Verses the behind the scenes, scene from Take Us Home, which uses lighting, which likely follows the camera because they are a high scale production company. I chose to use soft boxes, which were dimmer in light because it would add to the scene and the drama of it. It also is similar to other changing room talk scenes in other documentaries such as the Salford City FC documentary. To add this, it is expect that footage from behind the scenes would be chosen so this helps meet genre conventions
