Considering the genre and typology of our documentary,
archive footage is crucial in order to give the sense of realism to an active
audience. However, the archive footage must be chosen correctly in order to
find the balance because too much won’t appeal to some audience’s. When
undergoing this concept, a selection process must take place to find this
balance between archive footage and shooting. As a result, an archive selection
list will be created to ensure the documentary isn’t congested with archive
footage.
The right amount of archive footage in any documentary will
turn a decent doc into a great documentary.
