A short documentary on a young man whose an actor and aspiring singer, trying to make it big in the music

My short documentary is going to be on a young man named Kieran Alleyne. He is currently an actor on a CBBC show and

he's trying to make it big in the music industry by producing music and showing it to fans on sites such a

youtube and sound cloud. So in the documentary my aim is to film key elements of what he's doing to achieve his dream, including a few interviews of him answering questions.
