Documentary Viewing Guide: WWI

After watching a couple of YouTube video clips on world War I, It has given me ideas to use quotes and still pictures, along with video clips every now and then to make it interesting and keep people watching. I was also thinking of having a voice in the background talking while the still pictures are slightly moving in or out. For the Interviews I plan to do it like in the Why We Fight Documentary. I don’t want to do just still pictures, just video clips, or just voice over’s and Interviews, I want to do a combination of all of them. I would like for the Interviews to be chopped up as well, not just of them talking for like 5 minutes straight. Most importantly though I would like for the introduction of the documentary to start with a bang and end with one as well. In addition, I want it to overall be powerful and not be overly education like covering every tiny bit of what happened during the war, but talking about what happened overall and also focusing on a specific event that happened as well. Possibly covering like three specific events and going into more detail than the rest of the Documentary. It is unfortunate that I could not find a documentary on World War I but I have always been interested in documentaries and have a good idea of what to do. I have also had good experience in editing videos.
