Final Phase
Over the course of this week leading up to April 17th, I will be preparing a press kit, finalizing the documentary website and doing the final touches to the production. It has been a long journey until to this point.
Learning how different the views of some people are and how they apply to their lives can be a scary thing, especially when someone's life is on the line.
From the G-Code, to black secrecy, to hazing; they all share some things in common. But at the end of the day we want our audience to focus on the stories that we have decided to tell and make their own conclusion as to how important it is to comply with authorities in the wake of uncertainty and negativity.
Three different cities, multiple touching stories and one strong attempt to educate the masses.
This will be a 15-min. documentary entitled: The G-Code: Black Silence.
I hope you enjoy this production and acknowledge the amount of time and effort that went into making this project a success.
Stay tuned...

Next Phase
Now that the script and log are both complete, I will begin to edit and get a feel for the entire vision of the final documentary. Once all the voice overs have been recorded I can start to get a sense of what is missing and what needs the most attention.
I'm very happy with the footage we've received over the last couple of weeks and I can't wait to see how it all longs once it is together on the timeline and closer to the production that we have been planning for since January.
I hope you are looking forward to the final product of my first documentary as much as I am. From this point it is going to take careful editing and putting my creative juices to work.

Tally Experience #1
Since it was difficult to get in touch with any of our official contacts we decided to take a different route and include the information but get the feedback of those directly affected by hazing and the new changes being implemented at Florida A&M University to monitor student organizations intake process.
We decided to take it to the streets and get feedback from concerned students and those already in on-campus organizations.
Some people were blind to the concept of hazing, others said they would never tolerate it. The main point that everyone tried to stress was that no one is going to do anything to you that you didn't say was okay. A lot of students perspective was that those that get hazed don't like to tell. They go through it to try to fit in, not realizing that the secret code within organization are currently having a negative affect on the university as a whole.

Philly Experience #2
After getting the perspective from a younger generation about the G-Code, we turned to a undercover Philadelphia Police Officer that took us on a tour of the hard streets of Kensington, PA during the prime hours of prostitution and drug dealing.
He allowed us to take a ride in his vehicle with him as he spoke about the importance of people sharing any and all information with authorities pertaining to crimes.
He allowed us to take a ride in his vehicle with him as he spoke about the importance of people sharing any and all information with authorities pertaining to crimes.
The officer has been a cop for over 20 years and has dealt with issues of people not talking frequently ultimately leading up to crimes not getting solved. It doesn't just affect those involved in the case but the community as a whole because the offender or suspects get to roam the streets freely because citizens are afraid and typically living in fear.
David and Chopz both agreed that snitching comes with dire consequences, but when it has something to do with you directly sometimes you're left with no choice but to speak up or hold inside of you a secret that may slowly burn within you forever.
The undercover officer spoke about personal experiences he himself had to endure and said that the police always needs the publics help in order to put a serious dent in the amount of crime that occurs in and around the City of Philadelphia.
