Documentary formal proposal

Our documentary explores the controversial effects that videogames can have on society, we particularly draw upon anti social behavior. Throughout our research of the topic we have used a wide variety of reliable sources to influence our decisions and include in our documentary. The documentary is aimed for 16-21 year olds and people of all genders, lifestyles and class. We felt that this demographic was an interesting one to pick as we were able to include a variety of conventions that would appeal to them, conventions that we think are interesting and entertaining. Our group has largely considered the familiar stereotype that boys play more videogames than girls, and throughout our production we have found evidence that this is true. Therefore our documentary is largely populated by the male gender due to more responsive answers and opinions from them, however we have made efforts to appeal to females as well to avoid limiting ourselves to one particular demographic. The approach we have taken has been unique and unfamiliar, we have applied a comic style that is light hearted and fun in order to reach our young audience. With teenagers obtaining more liberal and modern values than the older generation, they will appreciate and enjoy the style that we have applied. Therefore a suitable channel for our documentary to air on will be BBC3 on Friday 13^th of February.
