During my research into The Vinyl Revival I was fortunate to discover a documentary called 'Last shop standing.' The documentary details the initial decline of independent record shops, the recent revival of records and the subsequent effect on independent record stores. It has been based on a book of the sane name, written by record distributor Graham Jones.
I particularly found a number of the clips useful as they use a mixture of montages and interviews and have a nicely chosen soundtrack. I would like to do similar types of takes in my documentary and feel that 'Last shop standing' has a relaxed, slightly edgy vibe which I have taken inspiration form and would like mine to have a similar atmosphere. the interviews are quite relaxed and intimate but done in interesting, raw locations that reflect the topic and add realism to the documentary and make the interviewees quite relatable. It has also emphasised the importance of a good soundtrack to add to the mood and message that is being put across to the audience.
