Logging Sheets

These are the four logging sheets we created and completed throughout the filming process of  our documentary, they state all that was filmed and what sort of shots they were all including times and weather or not it was used wihtin our documentary making it a successful shot.

Location Sheets

Old Trafford - Manchester

This was one of the first places we filmed for our documentary, as you can see this is the home of Manchester United. There are a couple of reasons we filmed here the first being it was potenially the biggest football stadium near to us, by filming here we captured great mise en scene and some great interviews and vox pops. There were a couple of worries to come with that too being the fact we may not of been able to film here first as you may have needed a permit but when there nothing came of that, another thing that we couldnt actually go inside the ground and film as this was against Manchester Uniteds rules and regulations, therefore being outside the ground some people may not of wanted to stop and talk if the weather was quite bad e.g. raining and high force winds, but on the whole it was a very successful filming session. Manchester United is cerainly the UK's biggest club both on and off the pitch (with finance, branding and popularity) so it was the ideal location as it is the pinicle of football clubs that proper in all financial departments




Broomfields - Astro turf

I play at the astro turf and took the equipment and captured a couple of amatuer football games, this was great footage as we could compare grass root football represented with the field/astro and contrast it to Old Trafford.As well as these factors he captured some great cutaways which would fit in and suit our documentary style straight away. Where the "A" is placed on the picture is where I stood and panned across the astro when filming.


Golden Square - Warrington

This is the main shopping centre in warrington is which we went to strictly captures voxpops, we thought this was a good idea to ask the general public on there views on money in football, footballers wages, merhcandise and TV. Each individual had something different to say and were very knowledgeable which was extremely useful, we encounted one problem which was we needed a permit to film here but that was no problem to us as we already knew this and completed the format form and was granted access to film here, we captured a great mise en scene with the back ground of a SKY advertising stand and a Warrington Town FC bilboard.

Priestley College - Warrington

We captured one main interview here for our documentary with a sports coach/coordinator which we had the correct mise en scene and was given some fantastic answers, aswell as this main interview we got some voxpops with the youth community and at our college that was not hard to get, we also captured some cutaways for our doucmentary and we had no issues at college what so ever, which was great and all ran smoothly. The quite rooms in college also provided us with a good plays to conduct our radio narration.


All pictures used was from Google Maps giving us a better image of which we had taken.

Filming

17th NovemberToday we conducted the first pieces of filming, in 3 sections. We found a location placed above the AstroTurf facility and panned across the landscape to get a cutaway shot that could be used in the documentary. Firstly, myself and Jack set up an interview in a gymnasium (relevance to sport) where we then interviewed Nigel Howels who is a P.E coordinator who works with aspiring athletes at the college. We asked him a series of questions that we had devised earlier. In the afternoon me and Jack then travelled to Manchester where we set up outside Old Trafford (ideal location to do interviews with it being such a prestigious place in football) and did some interviews with passers by. Once it got to dark we left. Finally, we found a location placed above the AstroTurf facility and panned across the landscape to get a cutaway shot that could be used in the documentary.

21st November
With the camera at home I filmed various cutaway sequences. The first was footage of a football monopoly board (connotations to football and money) being adorned with notes and then by pennies to represent the contrast. I also filmed some scrolling through the skysports channels so that we can use this clip when discussing TV's contribution to finance in football.

22rd November
Today we assembled some footballers form the college team, took them out to the field and filmed a variety of shots consisting of- strikes into the goal, footwork and a stationary ball then being kicked. This was to conclude the filming of our cutaways so we have a good depth of choice, these particular clips can be used when grass roots football is brought up (because it was amateurs playing the game on a normal field). We then went into Warrington Town Centre to gather some voxpops, we picked a relevant background (advertising for Warrington Town F.C and a Sky promotion board) and chose to interview youthful males as this is our primary target audience and we already had a woman from the Old Trafford interview so there was balance of gender

23rd November
We wanted to hear a footballers side of the story and so organised (through mine and Jack's connections to him) an interview with Crewe Alexandra player, Joe Guest. He answered questions that would give us the view of a pro footballer so that our topic would have balance to it.

1st December
In our last bit of filming I arranged for Joel Chaderton to be used in various cutaways that would proivde solid visual evidence to the points the audio of the narration would be making. I also filmed some cutaway shots of a man united squad (players) and examples of products associated with football, books, dvd's and games (merchandise).

Potential Archive Material/Sound Ideas

A clip taken from this would be useful as it would show the viewer the scale and significance of the transfer window to the footballing community, also the in depth coverage it receives. Which is highlighting he importance of a financial factor in football.



This can be used as an example of the "player power" that now exsists within football. Tevez refused to come on as a substitute and it has money links because of the whole saga in which Tevez (who earns around 200,000 a week) wanted to leave the club but clubs were put off by his enormous wages and valuation. This shows what role money can have in personal and club problems



1.00 minute onwards Gerard discusses money in his proffesion, we can use this to offer a footballers insight into the argument being discussed. Gerard offers a view that he is sensible and respects the money he earns but also hints at those footballers who take liberties with it, so it shows both sides of the argument.



This music would be relevant to perhaps accompany a opening montage, it's a popular song reffering to money and has a catchy theme that would work well alongside footage to introduce the documentary.

Questionnaire Results

Interview Questions

These are the questions we have selected to use in our documentary, the people we will interview will vary from proffessional footballers, rugby players, doctors and vox pops. As we have a range of proffessions/backgrounds, we will have to target different types of questions at different people.

Vox pops

Do you think footballers wages are too high?

How much do you think footballers should be paid per week?

What other proffesions are they that you think warrant a higher wage than footballers?

Do you think money in football will continue to rise in the coming years?

Are ticket prices too high and should they be lowered?

What is it about football that you feel generates all this money?

People in football

Is the money in football exessive these days?

Do people outside of football who complain about players wages fail to understand why they are such high wages, if so what is it they don't know?

What other proffesions are they that you think warrant a higher wage than footballers?

What is it about football that you feel generates all this money
