L/O: To explore the conventions and purpose of documentary film making
A documentary film is a nonfictional motion picture intended to document some aspects of reality, primarily for the purpose of instructional, educational or maintaining a historical record.
What is the purpose of documentary film making?
The purpose of making documentaries is to document important information about important events.
What are the common conventions of documentary film making in terms of imagery, sound, editing and mise-en-scene?
The common conventions of a documentary is/are : Images ( Moving and still ), Sound( Music, voice overs, sound effects ), Editing( Cut parts of the recording that don't fit or aren't up to quality, to put sound over the top of clips ), Mise-en-scene( The arrangement of the props/reporters on the screen )
Why is this particular documentary important in terms of raising awareness of the natural world?
This documentary is important because it explains how city's are changing the way animals live and this can be effecting them in a bad or good way, good because it is easier for species to find food, bad because they forget how to hunt for food and how baby turtles go up onto the beaches towards the city's lights in steed of towards the moons light.
Write a 150 - 300 word pitch for a documentary idea of your choice. It needs to be raise awareness of an environmental issue of your choice. explain where it would be set and what sort of things you would want to include.
My documentary idea is a 3 part each an hour long discussing what and where deforestation is occurring in part 1, where part 2 would go on to discus why and how and when it occurs and then finally part 3 would go on for 1 hour - 1 hour and a half, and would explain how we can stop it and help the environment by planting more trees and where to plant them, E.G. in 'Vertical forests' and in locations where deforestation occurred, why we should stop deforestation on a very large scale, and how small amounts of deforestation ( about 50 trees ) is acceptable, and finally in part 3 there would be by when we should have stopped deforestation E.G. What Year and what would happen if we didn't

Beach cleans/River Cleans?
This is one area where you can sign up to help out with cleaning up the local beaches and rivers@ https://www.sas.org.uk/plastic-free-communities/ Must get permissions to clean up the beach and fill out lots of forms. With the plastic free school you must fill out the for bellow and complete tasks in order to become a plastic free school:
Must send progress on being plastic free, Beach clean statistics show bellow:

The official AQMA( Air Quality Management Areas) Website webpage for Bodmin: https://uk-air.defra.gov.uk/aqma/details?aqma_ref=585 Which was Nitrogen Dioxide, Also Cornwall.gov.uk Website with more information about the situation in Bodmin town:
https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/environment-and-planning/environmental-protection/environmental-protection-air-quality/bodmin-air-quality/
All pollution was produced by cars and lorries according to Cornwall.gov.uk 's Website. This information is as of 2008 (Map of the area affected bellow (Green area with red outline was affected))
This survey of the area was completed 02/07/2008 which brought up the pollution situation which happened around the main town area, and Cornwall council reported on there own website saying the pollution was caused by the constant fumes ' pumped ' out of the exhausts of cars and lorries passing through the affected area. this air pollution is happening all over Cornwall in, St Austell again the nitrogen dioxide was caused by the exhausts of cars and lorries driving on the A390 and this was recorded in march of 2014, July 2015 Truro was recorded to once again be have nitrogen dioxide caused by cars and lorries exhausts that were travailing along the A390 and primarily at Highertown, St Austell's page : https://uk-air.defra.gov.uk/aqma/details?aqma_ref=1572

Cornwall council's Air Quality page : https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/environment-and-planning/environmental-protection/environmental-protection-air-quality/air-quality-management-areas/
Overview:
Bodmin has a pollution of Nitrogen Dioxide in the main town centre caused by the cars and lorries exhausts, Same for St Austell, Truro ... , There are no clear/Published plans at the current time (12th July 2019 ) for what has happened from 2008 - today, 2019. As of 12th July 2019 there has been no updated air quality reports on/in Bodmin or the surrounding area's. The Bodmin council monitor Nitrogen dioxide , sulphur dioxide, Lead and Carbon monoxide, these are the main concerns for the council, so there must be some more pollutants in the air which they aren't directly telling the public. This was found on : https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/environment-and-planning/environmental-protection/environmental-protection-air-quality/air-quality-faq/ , Last updated 05/10/2018.
Report Write-up
Although Bodmin is just a small town they still get large city's like problems, on 02/07/2008 the Air Quality Management Area's (AQMA) Produced a report on the quality of the air in Bodmin. The results shown that there was a large amount of Nitrogen Dioxide in the main town centre of Bodmin and into the surrounding housing estates, there was then a small report produced onto the Cornwall.gov.uk website stating the causation of the nitrogen dioxide was caused by the local traffic of cars and lorries that were exerting the nitrogen dioxide into the air from there exhausts, but was no problem to healthy residents, but could be harmful for people with lung/heart conditions, so had to be very cautious.
Then on 05/03/2014 the AQMA surveyed the town of St Austell, Not far from Bodmin, and they had discovered the same problem in St Austell as in Bodmin, high amounts of Nitrogen Dioxide again caused by cars and lorries passing through the local roads ( A390 + A391 ). After St Austell's air quality was tested, a year later on 01/07/2015 Truro had there air quality tested and to no one's surprise the AQMA found high amounts of Nitrogen Dioxide caused by once again cars and lorries driving on the A390, one of the same road that caused the pollution in St Austell.
Only last year (05/10/2018) , did Cornwall.gov.uk release an article about the Cornwall air quality FAQ, and mixed in with all of the questions and answers was a question asking about what kinds of air pollution do all of Cornwall councils monitor for, and they replied with Nitrogen Dioxide, Sulphur Dioxide, Lead and Carbon Monoxide. So this statement is showing that there could be more harmful gases around Cornwall which aren't in large amounts for the council or public to worry about. On the Cornwall.gov.uk website they have a 'Clean air for Cornwall strategy' intend to provide help the Cornwall commitments to improve the air quality, this was made public on the 10/01/2019 but there has still been no strategy attached since the first part explaining what the strategy was going to hopefully achieve, as of 17/07/2019.
