Voice Over:




For the opening sequence of our documentary, we wanted to introduce the meaning behind our work by stating a few interesting facts about the history and popularity of tattoos for our viewers.

We researched and scripted this opening section, finding out statistics about the amount of people who get them done, the origins of the word 'tattoo' and the history behind the artistic form which has grown to become much more acceptable and appreciated as a contemporary innovative expression.

We decided to use Matt Burge's voice as the commentary for our opening section, although we are contemplating using a voiceover later on in our documentary also.

We used Matt as he has a clearly spoken voice and an accent which murges well with our London shots of Camden.

We used the Yeti Microphone to record the facts over our footage, so that we could then adjust and cut the length of the voice-over easily, and further place it exactly where we thought necessary.




We recorded six facts individually and then added our music which we chose to be 'Hometown Glory (High Contrast Remix)' as a background track for this section, ducking out the sound slightly when Matt is talking.
