The difference between feature films and documentaries

1, the biggest difference is: Documentary is a film or television art form that takes real life as the creative material, real people as the performance object, artistically processes and displays it, and shows the truth as the essence, and uses it to make people think. The core of documentary is truth.

2. When shooting a documentary, the lens is the eye of a third party, which faithfully records everything that happened on the scene without interference or participation. Theoretically, it should be absolutely neutral, but in reality it is difficult to do so. The value of a documentary director lies in reorganizing fragments and forming opinions.

3. A feature film is a documentary that makes a concentrated and in-depth report on a certain field or aspect of social life with the documentary of present tense or past tense. The content is more specific and diverse, allowing various artistic means to express social life and allowing creators to directly clarify their views.

Documentary and feature film are essentially the same. ? Feature films should belong to documentaries.
