Actuality = Real moments the crew keep up with but can't stage
Sequences = Staged, directed moments
Fact and fiction borrow from each other - retelling reality
Different genres involve different degrees of intervention
EXPECTATIONS OF INTERVENTION:
Watched: Hidden Kingdoms - BBC One
Re-tells reality by filming marmosets in a studio
Similar to recreating train set from Nightmail
More interesting than graphics
Can seem dishonest - producers usually include 'making of' to evade this
Current affair programming
Often reporter led, dealing with weighty subjects
Less observational, more constructed
Journalism and story over character and actuality
Freedom of speech and free press - reality shaping capabilities
Voyeurism vs public interest
