Blink 182 Documentary (Rockumentary)





I found a documentary about a young university student filming the skate punk band Blink 182, showing the public what is like to be a film maker working around famous musicians and how life changing it is to be on tour for months on end filming the people around you.

Mike Millette has been set the task of filming a behind the scenes look of what goes into making a Blink 182 gig as well as showing his experiences on the road for two months. this is what information Mike found out:

  • Crew count:80
  • Number of truck (for equipment): 9
  • Time to set up each venue: 6 hours
  • Time to tear down the venue: 2 hours
  • Length of show: 90 minutes 

When interviewing the different crew members about their jobs i thought Mike was very professional in the way he went and did it for instance i thought he made the interviewee very comfortable and they did not seem nervous. Also the questions Mike asked were not one word answers and required thought.

 Overall i thought this was a good documentary as the interviews were to the point and direct. Furthermore i thought the different types of shots that were done were very artistic and varied as well.
