For my second ancillary task I had to produce a double page spread of a magazine article from a listings magazine. At first, we decided to base the article around the main character of the documentary, giving a deeper insight into the life of Courtney (the ex drug addict). However, we then read some articles of other documentaries and they were more based around the topic of being behind the scenes of the documentary. Therefore, we came to the decision to base our article on the topic of being behind the scenes of our documentary. This meant we'd have a lot to include, such as descriptions of the equipment we used to film, the locations and the responses to the making of this controversial documentary. Additionally, we decided to add a controversial advert on the second page of the double page spread. This was because the other articles we looked at had adverts next to them, which is a method used to get the attention of the reader. This means our article may get more views if an appealing advert is placed beside it.
