I have began thinking about the route I would like to take with my documentary and have constructed a list of preliminary questions which could be subject to change. I have decided that my work is going to give the viewer an insight into this single persons life, almost like a 'fly on the wall'. Below are some of the questions I am considering asking:
- What made you want to ride motorbikes?
I will include this question if the response is interesting and would make good viewing. However, if not I do not have to use the footage.
- How old were you when you started riding motorbikes?
- How many have you had/what kind?
- Do you prefer riding in a group or on your own? What do you like about it or get out of it?
- Have you had any accidents? Or has anyone you know?
- What modifications have you made to your bike?
- What would be your response to people that think riding motorbikes is dangerous?
- What is the longest journey you have done on your motorbike? Is there anywhere you have always wanted to ride?
- What rallys do you attend? What do you like about them? What are they like?
There are many questions above and my main task will only be 5 minutes long. Due to this, I believe I will record responses to them all and only include those which I feel are relevant, interesting or fit together appropriately. I am also going to talk to the main cast member and find out if there is anything he feels would be interesting to discuss or any questions he would like to alter slightly. I am going to allow him to read the questions prior to the interview to avoid stammering, pauses or awkwardness on camera.
