Production Log

Over the weekend I was able to get more footage for my documentary. My documentary is about my friend Austin. The documentary focuses mainly on his transition from high school to college. He also talks quite a bit about his diabetes and the struggles he has faced with it. His life has gone through a lot of changes since he moved from Idaho to Arizona and he talks about how he dealt with these changes.I focused mainly on cutaway shots this weekend. I was able to get a few different types of cutaways. I got a few of campus and inside the dorms in order to show his everyday life. I also did some close ups on his diabetic equipment. The hardest parts of my documentary are getting clean steady shots. It is also hard to eliminate background noise and find a suitable place for filming. I have used Movie Maker before, but I am trying to get used to it again. Overall, I have not faced too many challenges during this project.
