1.      Source identification:

a.      The tittle of my film was “Twenty eight feet” and it was A SHORT DOCUMENTARY ABOUT DAVID WELSFORD, WHO HAS GIVEN UP THE LUXURIES OF LAND IN SEARCH FOR HAPPINESS AND ADVENTURE ON A 50 YEAR OLD WOODEN BOAT HE RESTORED FROM A SCRAP HEAP. This film was produced by Ivan Kender and the Url was http://www.shortoftheweek.com/2014/05/20/twenty-eight-feet/

2.      Aspects that make it a good documentary:

·         The music was relatable to what they were talking about.

·         They provided good information about David’s present life and why he is doing what he does.

·         The whole video was super interesting therefore I was paying full attention the whole time.

·         It kinda serves as a lesson in the way that they show us that money is not everything.

·         It seemed like everything they provided for us was accurate and truthful.

3.      Improvements that could be made:

a.      The only thing that I would say that they could have done better was that they never really provided any information about David’s past. That would have allow the audience to relate more to him.
