Section 1 - Warning of content
| Jackass Opening Warning section |
What- The first section will be a graphic that has a black background with white writing explaining the content in the documentary that could be seen as offensive as well as explaining that there will be strong language. This will also include a big red title in bold saying "WARNING". The whole text wall will be read out by a clear spoken narrator that is not the presenter of the show. The design and idea is inspired by the Jackass opening section where they do the same warning message, but the host of the show reads it out. The font of the text would be Arial as it is a very clear font to read by anybody. It is also the most commonly used font on the internet with the addition of Times.
Why -This is done to make sure the message is reserved clearly by the audience. This is important to the documentary as it covers the majority of the constraints i would have ran into such as strong language being aired before the watershed.
Who - No one would be shown in the section but a clearly understood male would do the voice over for the warning reading what is shown on the screen. I will be using John Calvert as my first choice narrator for this section as he has a very clear and understandable voice with good pronunciation of words. If he turns out to be unavailable my back up narrator would be be Mr. A. Philipson who has a strong clear voice that would also get the message across very well.
Location - There is no location for this section as it is a graphic with voice over.
Duration - This message is important and will only be shown as long as the voice over takes to read all the information making the time approximately 10 seconds long. (0:00 - 0:10)
Section 2 - Introducing the question
What - After Section 1 is complete it will fade to black and fade Section two in. This will be the presenter of the show explaining the study that is about to be viewed and the big question of the documentary, "Whats so important about sleep?" This recording will be done after the study has been completed allowing the presenter (me) to explain with more confidence of the angle and experience what is going to take place in the clips shown soon after. I will finished the section with the a question that the audience can think about during the rest of the documentary. This question could be something like, "How bad is it to have a small amount of sleep?"
Why - This section will quickly inform the audience what the documentary is about and by focusing on explaining the topic and angle is allows multiple questions for the audience to think about during the rest of the documentary.
Who - I am casting myself as the presenter as i want the mode to be participation. I will be best suited to talk about the lack of sleep as i would have went though it not long before the recording of this section.

Who - I am casting myself as the presenter as i want the mode to be participation. I will be best suited to talk about the lack of sleep as i would have went though it not long before the recording of this section.
Location - The first choice in location would be inside of a bed retail store as the environment links with the entire topic of sleep as i would be surrounded by beds left and right.
Duration - This section will discuss the basics of the topic and angle. It will not go in depth with each subsection that will soon follow therefore this should last approximately 20 seconds. (0:10-0:30)
Section 3 - Opening Montage of The youth of today
What - This section will consist start off with a montage section away clip where multiple teenagers are sitting up late on games, computers, mobile phones, clubbing and more. During this short montage i will be explaining how so much of today's youth stay up late and wake up early, reducing the amount of sleep they should get per night, (roughly 8 hours sleep). This will go along with the song, "Get Lucky" by DaftPunk. I will have a low volume while I explain the section then i when i finished talking about how it younger generations are staying up late at night, the song will get slightly louder but not too much. Once the montage is finished it will face into the next section. with me staying, " I went out to find out when teenagers actually go to sleep"
Why - This section is more of an establishing section for the next section. This keeps the documentary interesting and a little more lighthearted as i don't want to come out looking very strongly against or for sleep. I plan to be a neutral party.
Who - As a montage i plan to get a lot of people who are between 16- 20, male and female of all ethnicity. This gives me a large range of people that will get the message across that the majority of teenagers do stay up late. I will be narrating in the background as i am the presenter of the documentary.
Location - There is no location for this section as it contains only voice over and short clips and pictures of teenagers staying up late. These location of the small clips would most likely be in bedroom, their houses or clubs.
Duration - I would like this to last a fairly long time to clearly state the teenagers do stay up late in the UK. Therefore the time on screen would be 20 Seconds (0:30-0:50)
Section 4 - The youth of today
What - This section will contain a vox pop style interview where i would asked 10 to 20 different teenagers of all age, ethnicity and gender to answer the questions to do with their sleeping pattens such as, "When do you usually go to sleep?" or, "How many hours sleep do you think you get?"This would be a fast pasted section that would be filmed in various location i can interview the people such as in houses, the street and where ever i can find people to ask. I would get the interviews from people i know as well as the general public in a shopping centre. In the background i would have faint instrumental music that fits with the tone of the interviews.
Why - This section would back up or my statement in the previous section and the entire point of the documentary, teenagers go to bed late and that they should try get more sleep. This section will prove that they do stay up late, often past midnight as i would predict, therefore giving me more support to my observation.
Who- I would uses the general public for the majority of this as i would actually be conducting solid research the stretches beyond people i know personally, but i would also get a couple of people in the school to interview as they are the age group i am after to interview.
Location - There is no location for this section as it contains only voice over and short clips and pictures of teenagers staying up late. These location of the small clips would most likely be in bedroom, their houses or clubs.
Duration - Dependent on how many people will appear in the vox pop i would have to dedicate more time into it but as it will be fast past and are very short answers i would dedicate 20 seconds to this section. (0:50-1:10)
section 5 - Sharon Eden Establishing speech
Location - There is no location for this section as it contains only voice over and short clips and pictures of teenagers staying up late. These location of the small clips would most likely be in bedroom, their houses or clubs.
Duration - Dependent on how many people will appear in the vox pop i would have to dedicate more time into it but as it will be fast past and are very short answers i would dedicate 20 seconds to this section. (0:50-1:10)
What - From the last section i will first cut to me outside the building where i will be having the interview with Sharon Eden (her office), explaining who Sharon is and what this section of research will be benefiting the documentary. This short segment would be provide what information i am trying to gain from the interview and how it should benefit the case Study later.
Why- This will give the audience a clear understanding of what the next section will be about. It provides a back-knowlage so when the interview is taking place the audience will understand why this interview was planned and conducted.

Location - The location for this section would be outside of the Interviewee's work place. This would most likely be outside the building of the office or possibly at her house if she prefers to have it done there.
Duration - This section should not last long at all as it just establishes the interview in the next section, i therefore gives this around 5 seconds of air time. (1:10 - 1:20)

Section 6 - Interview with Sharon Eden
What - This section will consisted of me and Sharon Eden having an interview about the general risks of sleep and her recommendation before i take part in the study. This section will have the graphic in the left bottom corner showing the audience the label of the interviewee. The camera will uses shot reverse shot, where the camera will jump between the Mrs Eden and myself. I would include a few cut aways so i can sew the interviews together to relevant information.
Why- This interview is more for me to get the knowledge and tips for the study than actually for the audience, but this would give the audience a better understanding of what i am planning and the expert advice of the study, giving the audience a great understanding and prove that i am taking the study seriously.
Who- Myself the presenter as well as the interviewee, Sharon Eden.
Location - The location would either be in the office of Sharon Eden's or at her house and she decides where the location will be to suit her best.
Duration - This section is an important section that i would like to be quite long to get a lot of expert advice out of it. therefore it will last around 1 minute (1:15-2:15)

section 7 - Explanation of case Study
What - For this section i will be talking to the camera in the environment of the study, (my bedroom/house) This will be a short section that explains how what i am going to do during each part of the study shown in the next few sections. I will use multiple graphics on the screen to help explain what i am talking about and possibly animation if i can find some i can use or if i have to to create one myself. The section will hit the following points; What the case study includes, who is taking part, how long the goal and final the rules and conditions of the study.
Why- This introduction main goal is to establish the any question the audience should have on the case study such as the rules and reason behind certain set ups such as having 1 male and 1 female.
Who- During this section i will be the only person involved with the possibility of having the other case study participant shown.

section 8 - Day 1 No sleep effects (Male)
What - This section is unpredictable but will be filmed in the style of video log, therefore it will be hand held or put on a still tripod. This would make the footage more real but it would also be easier to record spontaneous moments. I will also possibly have a time-lapse of the entire day in the room if i can set up a camera. The time-lapse would last about 20seconds but then cut into the main video log segments of the day. Graphics will appear in the bottom left corner where it will show the time of day it is and how many hours has past without sleep. I can not mention what will appear in the section as this section is completely observational.
Why- This is the main part of the documentary that will first hand prove the effects of sleep deprivation as you can see the development though out the section to see how sleep deprivation actually effects a male teenager.
Who- During this section i will be the only person involved as this part only shows the male participant.

section 15 - Interview with GP, "Hallucinations and odd behaviour"
What - This section will be focused on explaining the side effects of sleep deprivation, I have researched that hallucinations and unusual behaviour is a side effect that often kicks in on the 50hour mark. This would mean that it might happen in section 13 and/or 14. The lay out will be over the shoulder shot while interviewing the GP in his office. I will contain multiple cut aways to keep the footage interesting as well as adding in the graphic i have used for the previous interviews to explain who the GP is.
Why- Having an interview non the less about the topic will explain to the audience what has happened in the last sections and if not, still give them a warning of possible harmful effects.
Who- This would be between the GP and myself.

section 16 - Stop the Study & Why
What - By the end of the 3rd day the case study may be stopped due to the risk of the participants health. When this happens i will be explaining why i stopped the case study and what my experience was like. Overall this would be a summery of the case study and what i personally have learned. This would be done with a mixture of Video log style filming using close ups and mid shots to capture myself talking to the camera, but also have some footage from the pervious sections when i am talking about certain parts of the study.
Why- This will make the case study look much more real as i can explain to the audience who it really made my feel and now that i am well rested i can explain what it was like so they don't have to do it themselves.
Who- This would only include me, (the presenter and the male participant)
Location - My bedroom would be most likely location as it fits with where the case study was held in and keep the footage consistent.

section 17 - Conclusion of the entire documentary (Wrap up)
What - This would be a follow on from section 18 but will be based around the entirety of the documentaries angle and topic. Explain and concluding the final results that i have found out. This would be done very similarly to section 18 therefore the conventions would be similar too, but will contain more motion to make it more professional.
Why- This nicely wraps up the documentary with a conclusion for the audience that will allow them to know what information they should have gained from watching the video.
Who- This would only include me, (As the presenter0
Location - This will most likely be in the same location as section 2, a bed retail store, as it nicely tires the story to a close with the beginning question being answered in the same location at the end of the documentary.

section 18 - Repeat of Warning message Graphic.
What- This section is a complete repeat section 1. At the end of this section the screen will fade to black and end the documentary.
Why -This is done to make sure the message is reserved clearly by the audience. This is important to the documentary as it covers the majority of the constraints i would have ran into such as strong language being aired before the watershed. By repeating this at the end of the film it will ensure they will not forget straight away after watching as it is the last thing they see.
Who - No one would be shown in the section but a clearly understood male would do the voice over for the warning reading what is shown on the screen. I will be using John Calvert as my first choice narrator for this section as he has a very clear and understandable voice with good pronunciation of words. If he turns out to be unavailable my back up narrator would be be Mr. A. Philipson who has a strong clear voice that would also get the message across very well.
Location - There is no location for this section as it is a graphic with voice over.
Duration - This message is important and will only be shown as long as the voice over takes to read all the information making the time approximately 10 seconds long. (8:20 - 8:30)
