Editing stages

I am currently undergoing the editing stage of my media project, which is giving me the confidence and aspiration to strive and to achieve a quality piece.

I plan to start my project with a newsreader cutting to not only the moment in parliament when the decision was announced but also that of the student riots. Through this my aim is to create a eye catching and gripping opening in order to captivate my audiences interest for the rest of the documentary.

I then aim to draw the focus of my documentary to how education is a right and that by the decision to increase the fees leads to them taking away this basic right.

The Times newspaper has the headline “Universities face closure as tuition fees rise favours elite”.

The focusing of the elite in it is a false statement as it does not even favour the academic elite it is in fact the economic elite which benefits from this irrational decision from the government.

I also have included several interviews with students with varying backgrounds for example Nicole, Abbie and Emily, who all have different academic situations as well as different viewpoints on the increase in the fees.

By doing this I aim to make an informed documentary that draws fact on this injustice and conveys just how much of an impact that the governments hasty decision is having on our lives and the students after us, as no one can be sure where the government will draw the line.
