Persuasion, representation, and emotional heightening: the ethical implications of music as a creative practice in the contemporary social documentary / Harriet MatthewsArticle - English -
Explores ethical issues arising from the use of music in documentaries through case studies of 'One of Us' (Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady, 2017), 'Notes on Blindness' (Peter Middleton and James Spinney, 2016), and 'India’s Daughter' (Leslee Udwin, 2015). Proposes a typology for documentary music ethics based around the three elements of emotional heightening, representation and persuasion/trust.
