AV - Not in Nottingham Documentary

Just had a meeting with Deb to discuss what work we had completed so far towards our documentary. Now we have the initial ideas of what we are going to be doing for it down on paper, we have each individually seperated into our own roles to begin the full pre-production process. I am now generating the questions i'll be asking Jeremy Farrel as one of the chosen interviewees. Ed is breaking down he required paperwork for the proposal and each member will be taking a piece each to complete. Below is the rouch structure of the documentary taken from the AV Web board.

(ED WALSH)

We now have 2 weeks to produce our proposal and have a firm idea of the questions to be asked and how we will collate the information and the shots we have into the finished piece. A lot of the main bulk and structure of what we are going to be doing will most likely be fully decided once we have the interviews completed and we have decided what footage will be of use to us and the documentary. Much editing will be required and a large amount of the footage will be of no use as we are collecting a lot of reasearch to give us a better idea of what we can use to give Nottingham a better image. Loads of work!!!!!!!! Int milk brilliant!
