Documentary Film production ~ Filmmaking and Film Editing

Documentary films, as the name implies, are films produced with the intention of being an audio-visual documentation of a thought or event.

A documentary film is intended to be much more like a piece of journalism than a piece of entertainment or expressive art. There is typically a voice-over narrative going on throughout a documentary film with the narrator describing what's being seen in a businesslike way without any dramatic reading.

Documentary films are often made to more deeply contemplate a current events or history subject that has remained shrouded in mystery, been controversial, or in the thought of the film maker misunderstood or underexposed. Documentaries have also been made simply to narrative an event of personal interest to the film maker.

Biographies, sports and music events, a compilation film of collected footage from government sources, and so on and so forth all may be subjects for a documentary film. Documentary film makers are typically the writers, directors, and producers. Often they may act as cameramen as well.

Documentary films are most often made for Tv but in more modern times there have been more of them made as direct-to-video, made-for-video, straight-to-video, or straight-to-Dvd formats in which they were never first played on Tv or in the theaters but were simply distributed for home-viewing.

Some major motion pictures when released in Dvd format also come with bonus Dvds that act as documentary films of the production of the movie. Documentaries also often feature re-enactments of events that could not or were not originally documented on film such as historical events from the year 1776. There have also been "mockumentaries" made, in which a piece of comedy fiction is made but is done up in the same dry and uncomplicated format of an actual documentary. "This Is Spinal Tap" and "The Gods Must Be Crazy" are two of the most successful mockumentaries ever made.

To put together a potential documentary film, the filmmaker first begins by doing research, even if he knows the subject matter well already. The Main point of a documentary film is to relay facts and data from all angles.

Quality documentaries commonly consist of interviews at some point. This is a technique for lending authoritativeness to the film's producer by getting habitancy to speak from first-hand knowledge about the subject matter or an aspect of it. A documentary film also has to be well organized in an entertaining and logical format. Unlike with many fictional movie stories, a documentary should never deliberately confuse, mislead, or leave something mysterious. Many perspectives or opinions can be extremely sufficient at giving a documentary film depth.
