Evaluation of my questionnaire

From my questionnaire I found out that most 17-21 year old have at least one social media such as Twitter, Snapchat or Instagram. Also that most people haven't been bullied on social media or text which can mean that they are being careful on their own social media but also they are too scared to say if they have or not. Even if they have been bullied they might say that they have stopped but it still means that they have. From my results the most frequent social media which gets a lot of hate is Snapchat and Facebook and that they are saying mean things or sending inappropriate things to someone else. Not many people don't know that has experienced it or even themselves. To stop the bullying or minimise it is to campaign and raise awareness about this issue and not many people might be aware but also might not be bothered about it. Also the sight or the app should have a place to complain and they should actually do something than reporting or block and them not doing anything about it.

awareness about the issue and how it effects community

Social issue

Some social issues is that children in school are introduced to new things which they never knew about and that they think they are fun to use and also they won't know any of the dangers about them. Some signs of social media bullying is:

• Not interested in what you used to passionate about

Summary of my idea

My social action documentary is going to be about bullying because it impacts a lot of people in many ways. The type of bullying i will be basing my documentary on social media and texting which teenagers get or send everyday because it impacts them a lot. With my documentary i want to achieve that there would be less bullying on social media and texting but also change people opinion about it and try and help them to stop. Also i want to give people information and show them how much it has impacted teenagers but also how many deaths there has been from this.

My initial idea for documentary

My initial idea for my documentary is bullying. The type of bullying I will be doing is over the internet with social media but also I will be with texting as well. I am interested with this topic because that know one should be allowed to be mean to someone over the internet especially when they don't know the person or even met them. It effects them really bad emotionally and physically but also some can lead to suicide. Suicide shouldn't happen because it will effect more people who you know and they will feel bad as they didn't know but also they weren't supportive or tried to do something about it. I am trying to get people aware about this and they should always be careful and also try get to know someone online and you should be able to trust them because on social media there isn't some nice people. You should always be aware of what you are doing and you should feel safe and not get bullied This happens all the time and some people aren't brave enough to tell anyone as they are too scared and think they are able to handle it by themselves ever though they can't. Some key issues relating to this topic is that some can lead to death as it has impacted the person very hard as they don't know what they have done wrong. Also they could be having a really hard time in their life and someone has just made it even worse. Another key issue is that they don't know who to tell or they might just be too scared. This is a big issue because without telling anyone it can get worse and lead to something bad. Some people don't know who the person is and they just leave their name anonymous. The person who they are targeting won't let it go and they still just go on their social media as they feel like it. With texting they will actually know who you are as they have your number or even they just found it and keep annoying you. You should just block them. The 5 group of people I could interview are a student and another student which is younger so it could be a brother or sister. A Teacher and principal and you could interview your parents. I believe these are good people to interview because with your parents they look after you and they won't be angry what you tell them. A student will be good because we are always on social media and there are many types and finally teachers because they are here for you during the day when you are college/school and you can tell them if you can't tell your parents.

Analysing Interview Techniques

The name of the interviewer was called Krishnan Guru-Murthy and the person he was interviewing was Richard Ayoade. The context of the interview was to talk about a particular subject and as an interviewer to ask questions to the interviewee about how they are doing and the particular reason they are on the show. The interviewee wasn't really playing the role as he was suppose to because he was asking the interviewer questions and it sounded like that he didn't want to be where he was.

The purpose of the interview was to inform you about his new book but for broadcast reasons he wasn't allowed to. The interview wasn't informative because that they didn't really give much information and he just talked about random things and why he doesn't like interviews. He was trying to justify himself and he didn't want to be interviewed. The interviewer asked him some serious questions. The types of questions he asked was closed and he was able to get a straight answer from him. Some questions were personal such as do you think more norwegians should be in Britain. Also Krishnan asked some suggestive questions and he gave his opinion. There wasn't any structure to the interview because he said his name and then went into asking how he was and that he wasn't able to talk about his book. Richard gained more confidence and wanted to justify his reasons and he was trying to interview the interviewer but also talk about one of his interviews. The communications skills which they used were body language, for example they were sitting up straight and most of the time they were looking at each other. Also their tone of voice from the interviewer was calm and he thought he was just having a normal conversation with him. Also they kept on changing topics and they never got a conclusion.

Social Action Documentary

The purpose of this campaign is to raise awareness about special needs and to change peoples attitudes towards them but also to give people more information about the campaign. Also the purpose is to realise that everyone is different and even if you have special needs they are still able to do things like others but in a different way. This social action documentary is effective because it gave some quotes which is inspiriting but also they showed some photos which can touch your heart and that there was an emotional side to it because of the background song they had. In the documentary they had interviews which 2 people and one of them shared a real story and how it effected her. My response to the social action documentary is that it gave good information and that in the interview asked some very good questions which had to make them think a bit. With the real story, you touches your heart because someone is going through such a hard time and the photos they showed of some young kids. The clips in the beginning said something and its true because anyone shouldn't say mean words to someone who is different than you. They showed the girl from glee which has special needs which I think was good and interesting because in the show at the beginning they made fun of her but then throughout the series they didn't and they were fine with it. So overall it was a good social action documentary and that it gave good information and that it had a moral to the video at the end because everyone should be treated the same no matter what. Also it gave you ways that you can complain and how you are able to stop people saying mean things to them.

Kony 2012

The purpose of this campaign is to raise awareness about the Kony crimes and what children in other country have gone through. Also we want to try to stop this and for people to be aware of these situations and the things the kids have gone through and what they have witnessed with their own eyes.Also this is to help to stop Kony for making African children into doing crimes and witnessing them.  This is a global change and it has a impact on loads of people.  This social action documentary is effective because it shows real stories of what children such as Jacob has gone through and how people have helped him. When you watch it you have loads of emotions going through your mind and a good social action documentary is suppose to do that so people are aware of these things and should be proud what we have.It brings everyone together and we are able to help and there will be a end to this. It ends on a positive note but also it makes you think as you don't want more people to go through this.  When I watched the video I was shocked and scared for the children because they have put up with a lot and something needs to change. From this loads of children has lost their lives and gone into doing bad things. When they shows the stories I couldn't believe what they have gone through and how they recovered afterwards with education. They showed so many kids lying on the floor which was shocking and heart felting. And watching this I understood more of what was going on and what they are trying to put across to the audience with the facts and the situations. Finally I am glad that there are ways to help and support this campaign so people are aware of it and there will be a stop to Kony by donating and tracking on how everyone is doing online and what people are doing to help. These ways are easy and it doesn't cost much.
