Short outline of our project

For our practical production i will be working in a group of four (Kunal, Nikki, Sonia and myself) to produce an informative/investigative documentary with a working title of 'Dot Com'. Our documentary will explore the recent fascination in innovative websites such as 'You tube' and new social networking sites including 'Hi 5', 'Bebo', 'Pictari' and 'My Space'. Our documentary aims to highlight and present some of the negative implications brought about by abusive use with these sites as well as to educate the target audience on its safe use and other positive aspects. Our primary target audience is teenage girls and boys (aged 12 -17) however, we will mainly focus on teenage girls as statically females are more likely to be effected by some of the issues that we will be exploring. Additionally, we have identified a secondary target audience of adults (parents) whom we aim to appeal to through educating them and creating a moral panic.
