This is where the film maker stars in the documentary about thoughts or opinions so try to get agree with the same thoughts maker is subjective aims to get audience to feel and experience.

Expository:

This is the film maker is the voice of god its an authoritative. Image and voice match interviews they support the argument of the film there is a conventual narrative structure Bme (beginning middle and end) it is what we call didactic- giving info this is the most classical comment type of documentary.

Observational:

Fly on the wall style to see what life really like camera works is important in this documentary not much speaking.

The film maker is involved, lots of different view points, lots of formal and informal question, a logical development to the argument to the argument, at the end the audience s left to decide what there opinion is.

My mind map on Does 4 lions glamorise terrorism

Proposal (Does 4 lions glamorise terrorism)

I think i should do this film because i want to show people that this film has glamorise terror.

The cons of the film is that i will not be able is to get the produce and wright of the film in to interview. I will need to have lots of information of the film and how many incidents of terror have been done after the film. Plus how many incidents have been done at that time of year but 2 or 3 years ago.

The pros of the films are that all the reacherc i do will improve my grades

Propoasl

I think I should do this film because it is a good topic to do and it is interesting and engaging.

The cons of this film is, all the people that have Facebook will go against it this and it will be biased. Plus it will be hard to conduct lots of people to interview and this will be bad because I will not have that much opinion to have a fair film.

The pros of this film is, it is engaging, interesting and every one has a Facebook account so it will be easy to interview them.  Many people have made friends and got bullied in this school because of Facebook.

Arab Revaluation 

The Arab Spring, otherwise known as the Arab Awakening, is a revolutionary wave of demonstrations and protests occurring in the Arab world that began on Saturday, 18 December 2010. To date, there have been revolutions in Tunisia and Egypt; a civil war in Libya resulting in the fall of its government; civil uprisings in Bahrain, Syria, and Yemen, the latter resulting in the resignation of the Yemeni prime minister; major protests in Algeria, Iraq, Jordan, Morocco, and Oman; and minor protests in Kuwait, Lebanon, Mauritania, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, and Western Sahara. Clashes at the borders of Israel in May 2011 have also been inspired by the regional Arab Spring.


The protests have shared techniques of civil resistance in sustained campaigns involving strikes, demonstrations, marches and rallies, as well as the use of social media to organise, communicate, and raise awareness in the face of state attempts at repression and Internet censorship.

Many demonstrations have met violent responses from authorities, as well as from pro-government militias and counter-demonstrators. A major slogan of the demonstrators in the Arab world has been ash-shab yurid isqat an-nizam ("the people want to bring down the regime").
