First Week of Filming

This was the first week we filmed. We went to three of the girl's houses and filmed their art work and items in their room. I discussed the idea of identity with them through their art and through their everyday life and they all seemed excited about the prospect. They were all outgoing girls who seemed comfortable talking to me, even with the camera in the room. It will be interesting how they respond when the camera is on them, not just their art work or rooms. The shots of the art work turned out well. These are some really talented girls and I can’t wait to explore their talent and modes of expression further. We'll probably do some reshoots though of the art work we really decide to show and try and get some more stationary shots. Some of the shots were of sketch pads and some were of canvas paintings on an easel. I feel that the shots of the easel looked better, so we might re-shoot all of the girls artwork on an easel when we get a chance.  It will be interesting to see how the art will be incorporated into the film but just based on the b roll footage we got I am excited about the possibilities.
