Whilst planning the documentary, we had many different aspects to consider such as the interviewee, location and the content of the documentary itself.
Firstly, we decided to interview Kayla as she was born in South Africa and moved her later on into her childhood. We thought this would provide a different perspective of mobile phones and how her "mobile life" progressed during her time in South Africa and also when she moved to England.
Also, we decided to film it in the media room as it was a simple, quiet place to do it. It allowed Kayla to express her ideas properly and thoroughly without being distracted by background noise. We also asked her to get her mobile phone.
For cutaways, naturally we decided to use mobile phones and different shots of students in the college on their phones to demonstrate how powerful they've become. We also decided to use shots from the internet or typing in, and also doing the same with a phone and speeding up the process to display a question.
We also thought a foot-shot would look good. This involves placing the camera on the floor and recording peoples feet and legs as they walk past to create the effect of a lot of people.
