3rd Documentary Ross Kemp on gangs - Poland

Ross Kemp - On Gangs (Hooligans)



This is my third documentary that I will analyse, the person I choose is call Ross Kemp is an English actor, author and BAFTA award-winning investigative journalist who rose to prominence in the role of Grant Mitchell in the BBC soap opera EastEnders. Since 2006, Kemp has received international recognition as an investigative journalist for his critically acclaimed and award-winning documentary series Ross Kemp on Gangs.


1.) What is the social issue being focused on in this documentary?

Ross Kemp travels to Poland to visit the Polish football hooligans who have become some of the most feared gangs in Europe. Ross joins an elite police riot squad as they escort a notoriously violent hooligan gang and travels to Gorzów, to meet the leaders of the brutal Stilon Fighters. They don't show faces on the front of camera, they want to keep they identity. The meaning of hooligans is basically football hooliganism or different Soccer hooliganism refers to unruly, violent, and destructive behaviour by overzealous supporters of association football clubs, including brawling, vandalism and intimidation.

Football hooliganism normally involves conflict between gangs, often known as football firms, and this from the British slang for a criminal gang), formed for the specific purpose of intimidating and physically attacking supporters of other teams.



2.) Summaries what happens in the beginning/ middle/end of this documentary.

Beginning
What happened on the beginning of Ross Kemp documentary is that he came to Poland for the reason to find out more about gangs which is means football hooligans which cause the violent, and destructive behaviour by overzealous supporters of association football clubs, including brawling, vandalism and intimidation. Ross went to a football match against Wisla Krakow Vs Lech Poznan and he was for all the time with the Police waiting for a opposite team supporters before they will arrive to the station and he see all the security steps what police is doing, what weapons they have with the such as shotguns, gum bullets etc.

Middle
Ross Kemp went to Gorzów Wielkopolski to talk to hooligans on stadiums and why they use name of Adolf Hitler on stadium? why they using the Adolf Hitler cross? and why they are so close to him and his life

End
The end of documentary Ross Kemp saying that, it is his third week in Poland and he come back from Gorzów to Krakow for the derby match Cracovia Vs Wisla Krakow and basically what is the distance between those team is just a small path inside the park and this is an example. The stadium which is on the front of this Picture is Cracovia stadium and the futher stadium is Wisla Krakow and they are basically most enemy is Krakow (Cracow) against those two teams.
Ross was very shocked because police is trying to push away Cravovia fans away from Wisla supporters and what he see is a women walking out from her shop and throwing a rubbish either fights are going around her shop. 


3.) What type of documentary is this? Conventions used?





4.) What techniques are used to maintain the audience attention?

The techniques which are used to maintain the audience attention is basically shots and camera angles which are showing the stadium vandalism and force of police to keep away supporters from home team, plus Ross show real gangs when he met them in secret spot and they choose the place where they want to meet and what time.



5.) What is the purpose of this documentary? What changes is it campaigning for?

The purpose of this documentary is focusing on gangs in Poland and football hooligans and I think it is to show a gangs and police and to know how to fight and stop this on different stadiums not only in Poland but around the world. That was another example of Ross documentary on gangs.





6.) Who is the target audience? Age/gender/interest/location/language etc. 

I think the target audience for this type of this documentary is audience at age 15 and above, the gender which this documentary is targeted is mostly male because the whole documentary is based on hooligans and gangs and we mostly see males because is all about fighting, and racism on stadiums or either outside and we have experience this in Ross documentary.
Interest of this will be people who like football, support they own team, like to fight and hating security/police.

Location is very clear which is mostly we see is happening on stadiums or on private spots where two different members of different teams bringing 15, 20 or either 30 people to fight where they only using fist and no any different weapons.

The language which is basically used in Ross Kemp documentary is in Polish but we all see English subtitles and this documentary is focused on Poles and Poland and all this which they said is mostly translate but not all of it because they might cover some of the swearing content etc.  



7.) How have they been targeted?
How the audience been targeted is about the content which is included in this documentary, plus in documentary the gangs saying that they coming to the stadium for the match from very young age and in my opinion the best age will be 15 and above.



8.) How the audience encouraged to participate in creating change

Task 5

http://www.ditchthelabel.org/uk-bullying-statistics-2014/

This report was found on 9th of Match 2015 at 12:12pm and in this report is all about statistic where are people get bullied in general what I mean is the physical and mental bulling that happening in schools, colleges and in some of work places.

Those statistic that I have found are from year 2014 and it was from "The Annual Surveys" which has all key findings such as in United Kingdom 45% of young people experience bullying before the age of 18 and that includes bullying mostly in schools etc.





http://www.theguardian.com/society/2014/nov/14/35pc-children-teenagers-victims-cyberbullying-fears-grooming-tinder-snapchat


This link was publish on Friday 14 November 2014 at 00:05 GMT

I found this link on 9th March 2015 at 12:31pm 

Here are statistic of number of children who are victims of cyber bullying which has doubles in year which 35% of 11 to 17 year-olds has been or they still been bullied online comparing to last year 2013 which was 16% has double and grown almost by 22%.


Why this has been double because thousand of teenagers and included 15 or under using messaging service such as Snapchat and dating app such as Tinder everyday and that is the social issue. The community affected by the issue because anyone can uses those apps, every teenager has apps such as Snapchat because is most useable app on smartphones.

http://www.nspcc.org.uk/preventing-abuse/child-abuse-and-neglect/bullying-and-cyberbullying/bullying-cyberbullying-statistics/


Here is another statistics showing who has been bullied mostly in schools, males or females. Some of bulling has not been mentioned which is 1,686 and 443 has been mentioned for females and 1,765 for males 377 has been mentioned. This show that bulling don't want to be show off and what I see is that bulling want be hide by students in school because they scare to tell anyone to let them help to protect against bullying, and what students do is just hiding physical and mental bullying

1.) How did you demonstrate that you were listening?
In my interview I have demonstrate that I was listening to me interviewee by using eye contact asking a interviewee question and expanding on the topic and plus I was nodding that let them know that I am listing.



2.) How did you adopt your question/style to suit the interview+interviewee?
By asking the interviewee the first question I already know that interviewee already know something about this topic which bullying and cyber bullying and I was asking an interviewee easy question then I was cutting to the difficult question such as , personal question but before that I asked the interviewee if will be able to give some example if they wish I didn't force them to answer if they don't want answer this type of question.



3.) What have you learned today?
I have learned a lot of this practice exercise because it gave me some clues which I might ask interviewee in the future interview or either documentary and tips which such as eye contact and make the interviewee more comfortable to the question such as, talk for a bit about something which is related to the topic but do not ask them before you will not know if they know something about the topic.



4.) How will you improve to ensure professional standards are met (consider interview techniques/use of camera

Summary of challenging interview 23/02/2015

What I have learn in this lesson is about challenging my self in different types of situation I can be when I will interview the interviewee and I have to be prepare into different situations that can happen during the interview for my documentary. This lesson we have watch couple of different types of interviews and how they using interview techniques, I have learn that you have to have good communication with interviewee and make him/her feel comfortable and then I ask him/her question during the conversation and also make the conversation very light and easy to know more about interviewee.

If the topic in my documentary will be very intense I have to be calm and make the topic easy to make interviewee and prepare my self for any situations that can happen such as the interviewee can cry and can be very aggressive to me, in this situations I have be calm and still asking the same question to find out information related to my topic.

Also what I have learn from this lesson that interview questions have to be easy for interviewee to make him to understand the question and the topic matter.

Vox Pop - Review

Through carrying out the vox-pop about bullying in School/ Colleges I was trying to find out from the audience how they experienced the bullying, why the bullying is happening and try to get as much feedback and informations from my interviewee and test out few questions that I might ask in my real documentary but this was only practice that I can try to find out what answers I might get from different people if I ask the similar questions to them.

The effectiveness of my vox-pop is basically the camera angles that show we are in the class room and it represent we are in school and plus I think the effectiveness of my vox-pop was questions because one of the question been personal/private questions about if you ever been bullied and how did you experienced this type of bullying and how did you feel.

I was also hoping to used establishing shot and mid-shots and the angle to understand what the best outcomes will be and what I think would be the most effective relating to my topic. I am happy what I done for this interview practice because it gave me some clues what I might used for my real documentary.

Analysing Interview Techniques - Lady Gaga - Jonathan Ross Interview

The person I will focused on is the Interviewer call Jonathan Ross he born on 17 November 1960 he is an English television and radio presenter, best known for presenting the BBC One chat show Friday Night with Jonathan Ross during the 2000s and for this show he has interviewee Lady Gaga.

Jonathan Ross his aim is to found out from Lady Gaga the all costumes, dresses that she has it, he want  to find out why she dresses like that, what people will think about her, where she keeping all costumes.
How she inspiring people by dressing like that, she want to be different to other artist. Lady Gaga is more preferring sad fashion and how she inspiring people.

The purpose of the interview is about expressing opinion about her fashion, how she want to inspiring her audience, Jonathan Ross asking Lady Gaga mostly open question and close question and she is answering very open, she got her opinion about her style and she want be accepted. She doesn't have any friends she got friends around stages in concerts.

Structure
The introduction of the interview was very open, Lady Gaga has answer mostly questions, Jonathan Ross was very nice to her and she either prove this in his interview, the development question that he was asking her was very open but when he want to ask about her personal life she didn't either answered and that was closed question.

Jonathan Ross want to build with her good connection and what this call is (Building Rapport) and this how Jonathan want to be confidence-building, when he is asking about her personal life, Lady Gaga want prevent before she going to answer a question and she is picking up her telephone which is basically her hat.

Communication skills 

Jonathan Ross want to build with Lady Gaga good connection between them (building rapport), The way he did this is asking her question relating to her costumes, with people she works and what she experience on stages (concert) and how she feels about it and what fans thinks with her.
Body language of Jonathan Ross was very good, he been pointing on Lady Gaga costumes, he been joking with her.




Comparing Ross Kemp and Jonathan Ross interviewing skills which they presented are very different and each of them got different style of asking questions. After watching Jonathan Ross's interview with Lady Gaga we can see that he ask her multiply questions and in some instance he disrupts her while she is talking to either make a joke or add a humour effect.
When interviewing Lady Gaga Jonathan Ross uses a lot of hand movement when making a point such as pointing at her when saying 'you' similarly  Ross Kemp  also used similar hand movements when interviewing his interviewee but I believe Kemp uses this to make sure his  interviewee  who understand him (able to communicate)  due to the interviewee not having English as their first language.

Sitting position
Body language
Empathy / sensitive towards
Jonathan Ross was not serious to Lady Gaga, compering him to Ross Kemp was more more serious to prisoner and he wasn't disturbing him when he was interviewing him.
