This is a few

Here are a few images gathered from the internet and also a few from my cousin regarding the type of uniform they wore and the patterns in which they included. I researched this as i will need to be familiar with the type of pattern especially if I would like to show its distressed state in my film. The Us Army wore a mixture of different coloured/patterned camo. This would also be dependant on the type of environment they are operating it. For example in the first few images soldiers are wearing a sand ‘Desert’ camo as they are operating in the lands of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Zuckoff, M. (2014). 13 Hours: The inside Account of what Really Happened in Benghazi. Ebury Press (UK) & Twelve, Hachette Group (USA)

I chose this book as it is an accurate account of a military event that happened in Benghazi which describes what it was like for the soldiers taking part. It describes sounds of things like gun fire and explosions. Something I plan to include in my research about documentary film. I will focus of real-life events and the people who are involved and their experience.

Luttrell, M with Robinson, P. (2007) Lone Survivor. Little, Brown & Company and Sphere

I chose this book as it is a real-life account of an event that had happened in 2005 in Afghanistan including a team of Navy Seals. This event has been considered one of the most tragic military events in United States Military History. We get a first-hand account of one of the soldiers involved Marcus Luttrell: who describes his experience throughout the operation. It touches on character emotions such as pain, violence and weapon sounds.

Honess Roe, A. (2013) Animated Documentary. Palgrave Macmillan UK.

I chose this book as it will give me an insight of how animation documentary can make an impact to the film industry and its important. Especially as this was written by a student it may shed light of areas, I may not have thought of.

Marfo, A. (2007) The Evolution and impact of Documentary Films. University of Rhode Island.

I chose this article as shares a first-hand study of the evolution and impact of documentary film from the early/mid 2000’s. it touches on different types of documentaries and their impact in society.

Aufderheide, P. (2007) Documentary Film: A Very Short Introduction. Oxford Press.

I chose this article as it goes into detail to why Aufderheide chose to go into documentary and why she enjoys it. She goes in-depth into the world surrounding documentary film. Therefore, I feel as though it will inform some of my ideas while carrying out my own research.

Tianqi Yuh, K & Lebow, A. (2020) Feminist approaches in women’s first person documentaries from Eat Asia. Published Online

I chose this article as it touches on current social subjects such as Feminist, and their approach to documentaries. As we know the Feminism is now being widely acknowledge however controversy has surrounded it and its extremities. I feel as though this could give me a few abstract ideas.
