It's been a while...

Recently, I've been working on my webliography; it has unexpectedly taken up much of my time these week, getting all the sources gathered and sorting through each one.

I've tried to get in contact with one of my dad's friends from high school, who is now a film editor for a soap opera (Young and the Restless I believe?). I think this will be a valuable source if I can get an interview with him.

No word back from the cinematographer yet coming to town. I'll still wait and see.

Yesterday, with the help of City High and the YMCA, I was able to attend a taping of the Steelers Huddle program at Heinz Field. It was interesting to see how they put the show together. It also showed me things I'll have to consider when taping my documentary.
Things like proper lighting (which I can find in several of my sources), microphones and sound, and organization. For example, at the taping they had note cards describing what to say and cameramen in the exact right position, along with what was going to happen and be talked about on each show. Though a documentary interview can't be scripted from the interviewee's point of view, it reminded me that I should create note cards of what is said so I can later organize all of it.

Maybe I should buy a cork board, index cards, tacks, and some yarn for all this later...
