Week of Spring Break

Even though this past week was Spring Break we used the time to get some filming in. We filmed with our third and final subject, Quincy. I think the interview went well. Quincy was very articulate and open to discussing herself and her art. I feel comfortable now with asking questions in a way that is good for us in editing. We also filmed some of Quincy’s art and Taylor took some beautiful shots of her paintings up close. You can really see the texture and colors on screen and they are beautiful shots. Also this week, all three girls had a piece of their artwork showing at their school’s art show. We went before everyone got there and filmed the space and each girl’s piece. We weren’t allowed to film during the show and it honestly would have been pointless because it was a small space and there were a lot of attendees. I did take some footage on my phone during the show but we’ll have to see if it is usable. While filming, we met Mr. Lovejoy the teacher for the girls AP art class and he was very nice and interested in what we were doing. He is letting us film one of their classes and said that he would be more than happy to let us interview him about the girls. I am very excited about the possibilities of filming the class and with Mr. Lovejoy. Quincy is also in rehearsals for a play and so we are going to most likely film her at rehearsals. I think that the more we have filmed the more the project has begun to take shape and I am excited moving forward.
