Textual analysis of Reggie Yates: insider



In the documentary Reggie Yates traveled to Mexico to get an inside in to crime in Mexico. They started off the episode with establishing shot that shows Reggie yates in mexico, the establishing shot is a birds eye view of the mexico most popular city not being very popular. In the documentary the camera shots are not similar to other documentary there was no shot reverse shot to show the audience the style of this particular documentary thus making it very not very formal and scripted really giving the viewers the real inside scoop on the crime in Mexico. In the documentary they used a lot of diagetic sound to give you a real feeling of the mise-en-scene of the documentary. The voices of the people getting interviewed and Reggie Yates are recorded over the ambient sounds of the sea, the birds and people talking to give the audience a sense of realness in this troubled town. As Reggie Yates interviews civilians as each person talks they are given a close up of their face this connotes the real emotions of the people talking about their current situation.the non diagetic sound becomes more upbeat connoting fear and therefore increasing the audience idea of how dangerous  Acapulco is.

My textual analysis was helpful in terms of camera shot and how different shots can portray different but unfortunately it was no help for my production because of the fact of it being a documentary it didn’t fit the theme of my production which was a sci-fi, I believe the textual analysis helped me in terms of analysing films, documentary’s etc. The pre-production consist of the treatment, call sheet, storyboard, location recce and call sheet.
