Film Progression

Spending the majority of time doing indepth research and developing our intial ideas, it is now essential that the filming begins. One of our group members has managed contact Jon Snow, the Channel 4 news reporter who has agreed to let us interview him on his thoughts and opinions on teenage driving. We have discussed this and felt that it would be a good way to incorporate elements of the media into our documentary and their effect that they have on the way in which driving is viewed. For instance, programmes such as Top Gear have made speeding become some what acceptable, particularly for boys, therefore it would be interesting to hear the views of someone who appears to be closely linked to the media and the representation that such role models as Richard Hammond may have on viewers. This is still an idea that needs to be confirmed, however, is another and important development in making our documentary diverse and something current within today's society.
