Mockumentary

The ideal image of ‘nuclear family’ used to be described as a male husband, a female wife and their kids; however, in few decades, the term family has become diverse without any blood-related relationships. Because of this recent change of family values, it is easy to find that present television shows also reflect the new concept of family and influence the recognition of the viewers at the same time. Among many TV programs such as ‘Simpsons’, ‘F is for family’ and ‘How I met your mother’, ‘Modern

In the Netflix mockumentary series, American Vandal, created by Dan Perrault, the main character Dylan Maxwell, an 18-year-old senior at Hanover High School was held responsible for performing vandalism on 27 cars causing $100K worth of disfiguring. Everybody believed that Dylan was in charge of the destruction, despite the fact that he claimed innocence. Instead, they thought Alex Trimboli, the "eyewitness," Ms Shapiro, the Spanish teacher and everyone else that claimed he was behind the vandalism

conversations on matters that are often too sensitive and/or controversial to talk about in “normal,” non-comedic settings. In my opinion, there is no better example of this satirical comedic approach within our popular culture than the highly successful mockumentary sitcom, “The Office.” Within this show, the rather satirical approach to sensitive topics, such as race, gender, and sexuality (just to name a few), are consistently and creatively explored, especially within the episode, “Body Language.” However

All of us love science, space, and technology at least a little bit. There's a reason why pictures of landscapes are so alluring, why we look up to the sky at random points of the day, why we can't let go of our handheld devices. Certain reality sci-tech TV shows explain why, and here's ten of the very best out there. 10.

The Visitor is a feast for the eyes. The seamless placement of this other worldly being to earth is realistic and effective to the story telling. The film takes on a District 9 feel in the way that it is a both a story happening in real time and mockumentary style. Most of the film has a traditional documentary mood and we are formally introduced to the three characters. The researcher Raymond Davis, (Karim Saleh) the clinical psychologist Dr. Emily Field, (Julia Cavanaugh) and the retired consultant

That mocumentary Razzle Dazzle directed by Darren Ashward and the documentary First Position directed by Bess Kargmam effectively explores the world of dance in numerous different ways. The characterization throughout each film is tremendously different as they focus on different personalities and physiognomies. Though the film techniques on both Razzle Dazzle and first position both share similar camera angles and features throughout the films. Both the documentary and mocumentary paints a dazzling

helped define rock’s identity in the early years. 3. This Is Spinal Tap When This Is Spinal Tap first hit theaters there was a lot of confusion as some people thought it was a real documentary about an actual band when in fact it is a rock music mockumentary. In this "rockumentary," a filmmaker interviews the members of a hard rock band that's had better days. Even though Spinal Tap started out parodying rock music, it became rock ‘n’ roll itself. They did become a real band releasing three legit albums

Here comes another great divide. After Gwen and Gavin, Affleck and Garner, and, most recently, Malik and Perrie, we bear witness to yet another earth shattering breakup in Hollywood. Prepare to despair because one of the most beloved couples of our childhood, Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy, is no more. The couple announced their split via facebook yesterday. Both muppets released their respective statements on the matter, similarly asking their fans for understanding and respecting their privacy

I filmed a “mockumentary,” titled Pilgrim’s Progress: Fact or Fiction. It was produced by, “The London Anglican Literary Society” – an organization created specifically for this project. The scholastic contributors to this educational video are as follows: Ryan Ferries (as Dr. William Havelstone & Mortimer Applesberry), Charlie the ceramic figure (as Je-Suis Charlie & Jean Claude De-Gaul), and Conall Doss (as Edwin Pimberton & Not Edward Snowden). The main thesis of this short video is to view
