Michael Moore uses typical documentary techniques, such as he's not in the shots he uses voice overs to explain if there is a change in the storyline or something happens.

Louis theroux-

Whilst watching Louis Theroux' documentary you can see certain characteristics that he uses whist doing his documentaries. He is normally in the shots and you can hear what he's saying to the subject. Sometimes he uses voiceovers if there is a change in the storyline or something happens, but is normally included in the shot.

Research and planning

So far we have researched some different documentary makers, including Nick Broomfield, Michael Moore and Louis Theroux. We have researched them and watched some extracts of their work.
