If you were to make a documentary, what would you film?

I found that many people actually already have documentaries in mind. I have to say that not enough people really pay attention to and understand documentaries, or that the publicity and marketing work of documentaries is still very inadequate. Let me say a few A documentary corresponding to the answer I know.

You can read "Uterus Diary", "Baby Diary", and "Seven Years of Life" from seven to 56 years old. Currently there are British version, South American version, Japanese version, American version, and Soviet version. The earliest This year you can see the 63-year-old subject of the film;

"China in the Village", by Jiao Bo;

"Qi San Yi", both Japanese Qi San An interview with a veteran who witnessed it;

There are too many documentaries of the same type, even "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" has a similar behind-the-scenes documentary, which was also broadcast by Yangjiu. Of course, my personal favorite is Du Qifeng's documentary "Boundless";

"Player" Check out, there is also a BBC film, I forgot the name, I should be able to find it, at that time I also interviewed Wang Sicong; the one who took the college entrance examination, the documentary "College Entrance Examination" ” “Grade 3 (16) Class” and Zhou Hao’s “Grade 3” to learn more.

These are all documentaries that I have watched before. I did not seek them out deliberately. I believe that if you know more about documentaries, you will find that many of the subjects you want to shoot have been filmed by previous people. .

As a videographer who became a photographer, I can answer this question very well, and if there is an opportunity, I hope to collaborate on some works! I think the most attractive part of making documentaries is telling stories. Although records are the life of the documentary, the creator has the right to decide how the story will be presented to the audience, and they should have already thought about it before filming. What am I going to shoot? If you've already started shooting, why not put it down, chat with them, let the children touch the device in your hand, make yourself less conspicuous and become one of them, maybe The story is in the hands of a certain child, on a certain brick in this campus, on a certain blackboard, on a certain tree, on the smiling face of a certain child. I don’t know if you understand it or not! In this way, in the end, the film will have life, and the pictures, composition, and colors will naturally add luster to your story, because you will accidentally discover that when it becomes beautiful, the leaves are beautiful, and the sunshine is beautiful, but when it becomes cruel, the house also becomes beautiful. Cruel, the land is also cruel!
