Shots for the magazine and documentary:

In order to convey a sense of realism, and create a sense of reliability I took photos in Cambridge to show a juxtaposition of the sense of poverty and prosperity in the city. Also, I filmed around the city to gather footage for my documentary; mainly focusing on the opening section.

By taking establishing shots, and a variety of long shots; it allowed me to contextualise to my work by using actual photos and footage from Cambridge. This also creates convergence between my documentary and magazine as I used similar shots to the footage I used in my documentary.

These close up and medium close-up shots show the brutal reality of homelessness in Cambridge. I used footage that is similar to these shots in my opening, to engage my audience. I maintained a dull restricted colour palette with my shots to create a sense of convergence between my audio-visual and my magazine.

I then took some establishing, and long-shots of Cambridge to create a sense of realism; and to introduce that the narrative is based in Cambridge. I believe my audience will be impacted even greater by showing images of a famous city such as Cambridge, portraying the prosperity and appealing nature of the city. Then contrasting these images to poverty and cruel reality of some individuals living on the streets.

In my documentary, I interpreted Strauss' theory of binary opposites by juxtaposing an image of the poverty on the streets (the medium close-ups shown above), to the establishing shots of Cambridge as an attractive and wealthy city. I believe this will create a larger impact to my target audience.
