Inspirational Documentaries: Long Live the Kings

From looking at Louis Theroux I had found inspiration in terms of interviewing however, I was not a fan of the cinematography and editing in these documentaries therefore I looked at some short documentaries to help me. Above is a short documentary called 'Long Live the kings' and is about motorcycles and good-company on the road. The visuals of this piece are very appealing to the eye and have given me an insight into the sort of shoots I should be aiming for in my documentary. There are a lot of cutaway shots from different angles and shot in different ways, this is what I think makes this piece so attractive. Below are some shots that I believe are very successful and will try to replicate in my own documentary.
