Focus

Here is an outline of what I plan to include in the final documentary and what I will need to focus on or learn about for each part.

City High: High School @ Life Speed

  • History of the School

    • History of the founders - Interviews with Dr. Wertheimer and Mr. Zinga

    • How the school formed - Interviews

    • Early Years - Interviews with staff that have been here from the beginning

    • Events that have happened - Research on events the school participated in, or events that happened during the school's time.



  • Extras - Interviewing staff members that have had worked with activities around the school, as well as looking up information about them.

    • Robotics - Pictures and video from competitions. Interviews

    • Drama Club - Footage from past plays. Interviews

    • Digital Media Club - Examples of work

    • Tech Team (maybe ?)




These are just the rough ideas I've had. I'll have to cut some out and expand on others in order to narrow my focus.

If I have time this weekend, I'm going to set up a test interview in order to see if everything works as I have it planned out. I'll have to make sure that I can get the best quality audio for the interviews, otherwise they'll be useless.
