Concrete Circus

The concrete circus is a documentary about a group of athletes  all over the world like for example Paris, London, Wales who don't do normal sports but street sports such as free running, style bicycle and skateboarding. But the way it has been presented is different from most others as it uses wild footage for example footage of free running and skateboarding and style bicycle how the athletes run from different building jumping over buildings and climbing up buildings.
they do the most  amazing things we would dare to do like super human things from taking the extra mile and they have a narrator who explains everything in key detail about the background and life style as youths and how they started their hobbies and developed in them and made it their life. 

During the documentary, music was used a lot to create a mood and to fit with the activity of the scenes portrayed like fast music and edgy music. 
while watching this documentary i noticed there were many different camera shots and angles which is used throughout documentaries,  this  is so that you can  viewing things form a different point of view. 
These are some of the shots i found:
  • Wide shots
  • Panning
  • Tracking
  • Close ups
  • Mid close ups
