Wild Events
Wild Events is the third documentary that I had researched. The other two wildlife documentaries that I studied were both broadcasted on the BBC, however 'Wild Events' is boradcasted on Channel five. The presenter, Jake Willers, goes around the world and gives an insight into some of the most amazing wildlife spectacals in the world e.g. The Wildebeest migration, Bat cave, the Flamingo feast etc. The conventions that Wild Event uses combine both 'The Blue Planet' in the sense that it uses voiceover and explains the animals current behaviours, and from 'Autumnwatch' it uses a presenter, in this case Jake Willers. Example, during the Wildebeest Migration the camera interchanged between both the wild event and Jake explaining what is happening . As with all wildlife documentaries facts and statistics are given.

The use of constructing and editing the Wildebeest crossing makes more dramatic and was key in making this documentary successful. Also the use of sound adds to the suspense and tension as the Wildebeest cross the crocodile infested waters. Combination of close ups to see in detail what is going on e.g. Crocodile grabbing a Wildebeest and violentely hauling it down underwater to drown and long shots to show the size of the event e.g shows, as does the picture above, the number of panicking Wildebeest desperately trying to croos the Mara River. Again, the camera shots really make the event more spectacular.
