For the documentary I will be creating a poster that will be displayed on a public service broadcaster which means it needs to comply with the ASA’s guidelines to be advertised.

These ‘actualities’ were created to show the reality that normal people live in. The term documentary was popularised by John Grierson in the 1920s and 30s and he defined the term as ‘creative treatment of actuality’ which builds on the foundation set out by figures such as the Lumiere brothers. This new definition of the term introduced narrative, structure and social purpose for creating documentaries, this is where the widely recognised view on documentaries started.
