UNIT 17
This is my final piece for the Everyday people Project. We set out on this project to find someone who may not get the gratitude they deserve for a job or hobbie they do. I chose to focus on busking and soon learned that in the rain of November it's hard to find many buskers performing in the streets willing to be filmed in front of a camera and interviewed. I was then told about Georgia by a boomsatsuma director got in contact and the rest is history.

LEGAL AND ETHICAL ISSUES
Some legal issues to be aware of would be when filming in locations such as Cabot Circus is not to specifically focus on shop fronts as well as brands.
Ethical Issues to be considered are some Buskers or people in general may not want to be filmed for various reasons so approaching and asking them is the best way forward.

The film was created by UNI students in the local area which has a busking presence. The meaning of this video is to start in some cases of spead the conversation on whether busking is and should be seen as a art form or another way of begging. To do so the filmmakers interviewed two young buskers and got their views and opinions on busking in an open non hostile manner, as well as getting the publics varied opinion on busking.

Gnere: The genre of this video is a short film in the style of a documentary.
Target audience: The target audience of this documentary is at the bedrock of it anyone who is interested in busking as a social action and want to listen to and watch a piece of media covering the topic in a broad way.
Frequency: Online media video, audio and visuals contained.
Production Proccess: The production proccess would have involved location recces for the filming locations. Risk assesments for said locations. Shooting schedules, rushes logs a treatment as well as a storboard. These would be the fundimental aspects of the production proccess.
Reasons for choosing this audio/visual piece: I chose this video to analyse as for the project I have to do busking would be a great option as Bristol is somewhat known for it's busking presence ot at least it's street art. The video as well is made in a simple style which gives me something realistic to use as a reference to go back and forwarth between.
Project Pitch/Treatment
(click Robert's pitch)
Useful Feeback: Get in contact with the busking community, reach out on social media/ standard media i.e magazines.
The potential market position varies as it could be recieved very well by the Bristol area and busking community or it could get lost the the huge amount of other videos that have come before in the scene.
