Three Minute Wonders

A three minute wonder is a television series on channel 4 that shows documentary's from young independent filmmakers to hopefully show them on Television. The aim and purpose of a 3 minute wonder is to make a documentary that is 3 minutes long


I like this documentary because it shows us some of the worlds events and Karl Pilkington opinion on life which are funny. I didn't really learn anything as it was only Karl Pilkington opinions on life however the events mentioned would still be going on off-screen which is what mostly happens in a documentary. According to Bill Nichols this would be an interactive documentary as the interviewer is present a lot within the documentary which is a key feature in a non factual documentary.




I like this documentary as it gives an insight into the problems that some people have with their lives and teaches us to be grateful with our own life. The things I learned from this documentary is what happens when doctors are about to begin a surgery. I also learned some of the effects of how we are put to sleep. The documentary type that is used is a expository documentary as we are given access to somebody's life to see the struggles of the individual.
