blog post 2

So far my group has filmed about twenty minutes of footage. we have one substantial interview with mrs.meyers the choir teacher. we have set up an interview with mr.carter the band teacher because he knows the most about the budget for the arts at SHS. We plan on interviewing mrs.sadler and representatives from spring board, an arts company in the cities. we havent had any substantial hiccups so far. all three of us work fairly well together and we all have worked hard and been able to put our ideas to good use.

documentaries influence many of todays films. the realness of a documentary can be created in a fictional film to make it seem like its real life. doing so can make the viewer feel like more a part of the story line. i was surprised to read that it is becoming more and more popular to make movies more "real" looking instead of to fabricate the picture. personally i like to watch movies to escape reality rather than feel like im more a part of it. granted, action films and such would be cool to see in such a real picture, the people want an escape, but i guess its all about what sells.
