Documentary Update #5

Hey there! The photography unit of the documentary has been awesome! Check out a sample:

Now, is the final stages of filming and editing  unfortunately, I leave for exams soon so my partner will be left to edit solo, but I'm so grateful for her amazing editing skills! We're both excited to move closer to the final product!

Documentary Update #4

With mere weeks left I'm getting stressed! We've had an excellent plan from day one, but it seems things are easier said than done. Our biggest obstacle has been the cliche of 'technical difficulties'. Basically, it's been more than a challenge to get our hands on a camera, with a decent battery life, of a consistent quality. Despite the odds, we hope to have all the shots done soon, if there isn't much schedule collision with our 5 interviewees! We will be conducting one on one interviews as well as shooting moments very representative of their characters, which should come together nicely as a representation of the CB student body. By next blog post I should be able to share some portraits from the photojournalism aspect!

Documentary Update #3

      Today we were able to submit our final version of the podcast for marking. It turned out really well, my partner did an awesome job editing  as usual, and our interviews were informative and entertaining. I'm pleased we got a well-rounded collection of interviewees - an IB coordinator, an IB and non IB student's parent, and a CB alumni. Here is a link to hear the podcast!
    The next step in our documentary project, alongside our filming, is the photo-journalism aspect. This part of the project is what I've been most excited for as I enjoy photography, especially portrait photography. I hope to be able to convey our message through the images we will capture of CB students. Stay tuned for the photos and only a month until our film will be complete!
