Mockumentary

When it comes to My Name Is John, one of the projects I am am working on Sarah who pitched it wanted it to be a documentary so I decided to look into what that is so I can get a better understanding when it comes to filming it.

A basic term for a mokumentary was this: 


A television programme or film which takes the form of a serious documentary in order to satirize its subject.

When it comes to mockumentaries one aspect that you would need to get right is making it feel like it is in reality even though it isn't. One way to pull this off is to partly or even have the whole thing improvised as it keeps the actors able to keep up to pretence of reality.
