Final version of project proposal:

Proposal for “Gluten free” documentary

By Matthew Wheeler

Product Proposal:

Content outline of documentary:

›  Will be talking about what “Gluten free” is.

›  Will be discussing who is affected by Gluten. (who has to be on a Gluten free diet)

›  Will talk about what kind of effects people have when they eat Gluten? Some being more severe than others.

›  What people who are affected by Gluten are doing to try and counter the effects that Gluten has on them.

›  What are experts doing to try and cure this problem?

Why you should invest in my production:

›  This documentary topic is unique from most documentaries you find on TV these days.

›  It is an informative documentary which people (affected by Gluten or know someone who is) will benefit from watching.

›  From market research, I have found that there are barely any market competitors who have touched the same topic for a documentary. This makes my documentary stand out in the market from other market competitors.  

Target audience:

›  My target audience is people who are affected by gluten. This is a large target audience due to the fact that every one in ten people in the UK is diagnosed with coeliac (an illness which has effects on the person when they eat Gluten). That gives me a large target audience/ market to reach out to with my documentary.

›  I would aim for a younger aged audience (14- 18) year olds because in the documentary we will be discussing how it can be difficult for young GF sufferers to eat Gluten free with friends ect and how it can make them feel out casted in a way.

Resources:

›  Filming equipment: I have found a website that sells all the filming equipment I would need, as a bundle package. http://www.newdaypictures.com/Video_Camera_Hire.html

›  Editing suite: The same website I am using for camera hire also has a editing suite which I will be using. http://www.newdaypictures.com/editsuite.html

›  Interviews one: I have been in contact with the doctor who first put me on the “Gluten free diet” and monitored my progress and helped me with problems when I started on the diet. Dr John Richer has agreed to be interviewed.

›  Interviews two: I have spoken too two celiac community groups asking them if any of them would be prepared to be interviewed by me.

Cast and crew:

Cast:

›  I will be part of the cast for the documentary, because I will be conducting the interviews and also talking too the cameras a little about my knowledge and stories of being Gluten Free.

›  Interviewees will be the remainder of my cast who will be the documentary. One of them being Dr John Richer.

Crew:
