Blog entry, march 31st
After reading about the six modes of documentary films, I came to the conclusion that any film on any subject can be seen in many different ways. The ways in which we interpret the film to be is soley based on personal likening and interest. The ways in which the director portrays the topic in the film plays a major role in out opinion. For example, a director making a film on the downside of the food processing plants and how they are poorly run will change the way the film is set up. If the director is against the food processing plants, there will be a lot of one-sides arguments and many negatives about them. But, if the director were to be in favor of the plants, the film would be seen in a whole different perspective. The six modes, which include expository, poetic, observational, participatory, reflexive, and performative, all expose different ways film is looked at.
