This short film is based on deaths and injuries committed by young reckless drivers at sealing beach in Doha, Qatar. The documentary portrays the concerns of younger people being killed specifically at sealine beach and informing the audience on the dangers of such careless acts.
Editing in this documentary is relatively slow. This is very clear because the cuts occur during the interviews whereby the interviewee would provide knowledge about the topic later cutting into an example of what is being described. This showing that there is not much suspense when it comes to the genre and how the editing of the shots have been done. Another aspect of the editing was nthe use of faded transitions going into information added on a black screen. Using straight cuts allows the documentary to seem more serious and let the information intrigue the audience watching it.
The documentary is very informative considering because it is being portrayed as slightly adventurous and also due to there being very clear explanation throughout by both paramedics, witnesses etc. Lighting is both high key and low key making it conventional because it shows both emotion and perfect exposure of the interviewees to allow their expressions to be more clear. There isn't a set costume or even prop theme due to having all shots be realistic rather than reconstructed. These accessories are unnecessary as they would make the documentary less gloomy. Although the camera work was very simple throughout and there was a constant use of mid shots. This is sen because the interviews need to be clearer to show all the body language to explain the stories in more detail. The footage used in Sealine were all in wide mode and even mid shots to bring out the atmosphere and life.
In conclusion the documentary was created not for professionalism but for the sake of saving peoples lives therefore allowing the editing to be less skilled than usual. The documentary overall has a variety of shots in different angles of each perspective of the environment. The cuts between each shot were quick and sharp allowing it to be more efficient.
