So, to start off; my project will be about student activism. Specifically I will be documenting a particular student who not only is a student activist, an active student socialist, sociology major, but who will be running for the presidency of BSU. I plan on documenting this journey in my documentary.
I can honestly say that this particular shoot seemed to be a lesson in DIY ethic. I say this because, in my time creating videos and such, I have always had a crew who can worry about the other aspects of shooting and obtaining footage because I was primarily concerned with the cinematography and writing of the treatment etc. With this shoot, I learned to be more prepared and organized this time.
Although the subject was seated in a place that was not visually stunning; what seems to be the most interesting is what he has to say; It is very interesting and very refreshing to find someone who is a fellow peer, trying to make a difference in his community and in the world.
