Graff posted:civilisation was pretty dope if you want something not science you should probably watch civilisation and the ascent of man together, the latter was specifically designed as a reply to the former. then be prepared to find 95% of things called "documentaries" made in the last two decades incredibly grating. i'm so annoyed by modern documentaries. they cracked the format years ago and your media studies degree isn't going to improve it. find a person who knows and loves their subject and let them talk about it, with whatever footage you need to back up what they're saying. works for everything from david attenbrough to that guy who does the lock-picking videos on youtube. bbc4 is amazing for this - i willingly watched a whole history of royal clothing because the presenter was just talking about the subject and telling me, the viewer, the things she felt were important and interesting. that's all you need. if your documentary has a presenter or a talking head who knows less about the subject than a random punter off the street (or at least is pretending to) you've hosed up. if your presenter spends more time talking about how they feel about the subject rather than what the subject actually is, you've hosed up. most of all if the first paragraph of your script includes the words "i'm on a journey" just delete everything and never make a documentary ever again.

LeftistMuslimObama posted:also necroposting to say i wish trve kvlt surf music was a real thing, because i find the actual versions of these songs intolerable. i want to love metal (and generally i love the instrumentals), but i really cant stand to listen to a man growl about rape and murder all day so the heaviest thing i can listen to is like nightwish which isn't really the same thing. you should listen to immortal or darkthrone or mayhem's "de mysteriis dom sathanas" iirc all that music is about "holy poo poo it's cold outside" or "man i'm lonely" or "go gently caress yourself"

epipen posted:the only benefit a documentary gets from a famous narrator, tbh, is being made fun of. I typed out a big effort post but somehow it ended up disappearing. Anyway there is defiantly a sub-class of documentaries where a famous actor actually knows a lot about a subject and really cares about it, plus they are obviously great on camera which can't always be said for many academics no matter how photogenic they are. Anyway I was going to recommend Peter Capaldi (Dr Who) on Scottish art and Simon Russell Beale on Sacred music. Obvs both BBC4 because who else cares about that poo poo.
