Second Session

Recap of Sunday; January 22, 2012

Once meeting up for our second session, we started throwing out actual names of people to interview and explained the reasoning behind picking those individuals.  

Based on the story elements we tried to cover every angle and have a valuable source for each Act included within the documentary.  It is very crucial we stay true to our theme.  We realize that there may be some obstacles with finding people willing to be filmed on camera talking about their experiences but we're going to make it possible.  

The narrator or narrators we decide to choose could really make or break our approach.  What we aim for is someone with a voice that demands the attention of an entire room, so that you can't help but to listen to what that person has to say.  Whoever we decide on, we have faith they'll do just fine.  

Towards the end of this session we had collected a lot more information from each other and brought a lot of things to the table.  Rather it was research topics or potential questions we could answer in our film.  The main theme of our doc is what we'll be more focused on in the weeks to come, along with determining how we intend to structure the three different Acts.  We already have some nice ways on how we could build up the overall concept of our story.  

Next Session - Prepare more structure ideas, Finalize list of sources and people to interview, Think about the different elements each Act should contain.
