UCTV EDIT STORYBOOK: DOCUMENTARIES

Documentaries are the most "free-form" of the programs produced. Often less rigidly structured than the studio and lecture programs, the goal is to present a topic in the most interesting and educational way.

Some programs can be part of a series with each program adhering to the "look" of the series, often established by the program opener.

Stand-alone documentaries should keep a consistent look within themselves. Fonts and colors used should match and/or compliment one another. As with all programs, people speaking on screen should always be identified with a lower third I.D. Full credits are given at the end of the program.
