...Bill Nichols different forms of Documentary Film.
This clip from 'Planet Earth' exemplifies Expository in that it is a form of Documentary Film that addresses the viewer directly through voice-over. The speaker is never seen but speaks form a position of authority, conducting the images we see.

This clip from 'Super Size Me' exemplifies Performative documentary filming in that the filmmaker himself, Morgan Spurlock, becomes the subject of the film. I enjoy every type of Documentary film but I especially enjoy performative because of its ability to be personable. Allowing the audience to directly connect to the purpose of the film and what the point the director is making.
