Firstly, we chose to present our documentary in a role-playing format as we felt that it is an easier way to present the sufferings of the civilians. Furthermore, role-playing is also more interesting and also, we can directly see what causing the civilians’ sufferings.

In the introduction, we see Yuenice talking and then, walk up the stairs while i zoom into the top-right background of that scene, and then i add a “black-white” and “aged film” effect to show a transition from our time to the time during the Japanese occupation. The scene which shows the words scrolling up describe the starvation amongst the civilians. We used Leona Lewis’s “Better in Time” as we felt that its introduction was a sad one.

The next scene, which shows Cherie running from Kim is actually a scene depicting a Chinese girl not showing respect to the Japanese soldier, therefore, ended up being chased and shot. We added some humor to that scene so as to not let the class get bored.

Then we went on to the scene where Yuenice is talking about the Sook-Ching massacre. After that, we went on to take a top-down shot of Kim exchanging something with someone. He is actually using banana note to buy a sack of rice from the black market. The sack was a prop we got on the spot for $2! Kim bought it from the souvenir store.

For the credits, we used some pictures such as: execution of a pow(prisoner of war), surrender chanbers etc. We used a theme called “Reflections Black” to put all pictures used and come clips together. Clips include bloopers.
