London

George, Calum and myself went to London to film the opening shots and fill shots of our documentary. We filmed outside Parliament and on South bank with the Houses of Parliament in the background. We felt that this linked well to the theme of governments that is predominant in our documentary.



I was in front of the camera and asked passers by questions about the Wikileaks news story. These questions included:

What do you know about the Wikileaks news story?
What do you know about the sexual assault charges that Julian Assange faces?
Do you agree with these charges or do you think governments may be making these up to keep Julian silenced?
Do you think the Wikileaks news story shows that the government has lost control?
What effect do you think these leaks have had?

Calum and George filmed these questions being asked. George filmed the main interview whilst Calum used another camera to film some fill shots such as long shots and close ups of hands.



After the interviews, we filmed the opening of our documentary. The script for this part of the documentary can be found below:

With over 1 billion people exposed to the internet world wide and a massive 79% of all websites being created by the public, it is no wonder that governments' control over the world wide web has been questioned.
Take a look at one of the most prominent stories in the news today; with over 600 000 followers on twitter, 250 000 leaked cables and 40 million unique hits a month, it is no wonder that Wikileaks has shaken the foundations of governments' world wide. But have these recent breaches finally caused governments to loose control over the internet and its users?

Whilst filming this section of the documentary, Alistair Darling walked past us. As our documentary was about governments, we took the opportunity to try to ask him some questions. Unfortunately, Darling was not willing to give us an interview and we were unable to film the encounter.
