Research Into Documentary *Kobe Doin Work Documentary

During my research on Documentarys and short films, I already had an idea of what I wanted the Documentary about, which was Basketball. Searching various Documentarys such as Michael Jordan's *Air Time" as well as his others, I came across a much more modern Documentary which focused on Professional Basketball player Kobe Bryant. As I watched this Documentary, I realised the techniques used such as background music, footage, lighting and the commentary that was used throughout the Documentary.
What I found effective was that this Documentary had the commentary of Kobe Bryant himself discussing what he was doing in the footage as well as explaining how he felt in the matches. In addition the commentary also helped the audience to engage in a personal insight to Kobe's experiences on the court, along with how he has grown since he's been in the NBA.

I have come to conclusion that I will be using this Documentary for modelling purposes such as following the conventions of the Documentary however include my own features such as interviews with experienced players, coaches and friends. By adapting a Basketball Documentary into my own, I will be aiming to put across a message of my opinion on Basketball and how its changed over the years.
