1. My initial selection of jerseys was this one, which was simple and black and white with a VTRN logo buttoned collar.  2.

  I have been watching a lot of documentaries not just because I have to to get the grade but has always been one of my favourite film genres, I was watching this short documentary on YouTube recently about running (tried to step outside of the zone I set and look into other sports) and a few little details stood out to me that I would love to integrate into my blog  1. I saw this and was very intrigued , it draws the audience closer and draws them to the title of the film , i think It is also a good way to educate people  2.  this seems simple but I thought this was the part that If I had to choose a part to add to my documentary it would be this  the director first interviewed the athlete first and created a miss-en-scene for the audience to root for him and feel for him for all the hard work he has put in ,but the thing that stood out for me was the use of an overlay/l cut  where there was a cut to the next scene of him running but the dialogue still con...
