A cutaway of a fingerprint is used cleverly here as the documentary is about serial killers. This a good technique as the audience have an idea about the documentary before it have even started.
What was interesting about this documentary was that the interviewees pictures came up with there names next to them before their interview was played. This breaking common documentary codes but it works well for the documentary.
This cutaway is fantastic it is a recording of someone getting kidnapped, it fits in completely to the documentaries topic and is very captivating for the audience.
Although with this interview the name is featured at the side of the interviewee whilst the interview is playing. This is the common set up of a documentary and what we will be basing our documentary on.
Texted is used in the documentary it makes a statement as the reader is expecting to see more cutaways and further interviewees it makes a change in the documentary.
Old photographs of serial killers and reinactments are used within the documentary they work well as they aim to show the audience what it was like for the victims and to give them a further insight into what went on.
A fade is used in the documentary it is a transition that is probably the most common. It signifies that something new is about to be spoken about, it add an entertaining factor.
A pan is used when focusing on the house in the print screen above the music changes to an eery tone and the pan goes slowly from the left side to the right side of the house at this part of the documentary, hey are talking about a serial killer and this was where they were said to have lived.
