Voice over script for the documentary

Here is the voice over script that the group created together for our documentary. We went through our running order and found appropriate places for some voice over clips.

 Montage of tattoos from people participating in interviews
 Tattoos are more popular today than ever before. They range from the small, relatively modest designs which are increasingly popular with young people, to the colourful, full body designs favoured by the hardened tattoo enthusiasts. But how does the process begin? (14 Seconds)
 Weird Tattoos
 The process is actually quite straight forward but sometimes the designs clients want, are far from it. (6 Seconds)
 Popularity
 Tattoo’s are now an accepted aspect of popular culture but what was it that lead to more and more people wanting to subject themselves to the tattoo artists needle. (10 Seconds)
More Tattoos
 For some people having one or two tattoos is enough, but for others their passion for getting inked means that their body is a blank canvas that needs to be covered. (11 Seconds)

Radio trailer script

Here is the script for our radio trailer.
 More and more people are embracing the permanence of body modification by way of ink.
 “Tattooing has really hit the stratosphere”
Tattoos tell a story; an individual, unique and cultural story. However not everyone follows the conventional ways of tattooing and tattoos are getting weirder and weirder.
 “Stickmen on bum cheeks”
“So it was like a confused snail”
 “Wanted bee’s on his knees”
 What some might consider art, others see as a massive turn off
 “Ew no”
 “That’s quite weird”
 “Awful”
 “Too much, way too much”
 So it would appear that when it comes to tattoos beauty really is in the eye of the beholder. Beauty of Beast? Permanent Ink; 21st of January, 9 o’clock, Channel 4

Email to Atlantic records

We emailed Atlantic Records in order to ask for permission to be able to use the song Highway to Hell by the band ACDC. We didn't receive a response however here is the email that we sent.

Music research

As a group we searched for different instrumental songs that we could use in our documentary. We will use instrumental as we dont want the singing to interrupt with the dialog from the interviewees. When we conducted our audience research questionnaire, we saw that Rock music is the most popular genre of music so we decided to use rock music in our documentary.

At first we found this song (Tattoo by Van Halen) and we wanted to use this in our documentary as it connects to the topic and it is a rock song.






We than had the idea whether or not to use a Queen song as they are a rock band and we believed that their music would fit in with our documentary target audience.





Than we found the song Highway To Hell by ACDC and we thought this would be the perfect choice for our documentary as it matches it well and matches the target audience.
