Production- In Action

Film daysss!!

We had a couple of production days for our documentary. We first started with the student interviews during class. We went to the LIA room and picked out six students to interview. We had them step outside and asked them a few questions, and honestly, it was really entertaining to do. We had to set up the camera first and then start filming, and for a few interviews, we did two takes just in case. After that, we filmed some B-roll of the class while the students were working.

Our next filming day was in the morning when we interviewed Mrs. Rodriguez, the LIA teacher.!!!!!The interview went really smoothly (thank godddd). We set everything up first and chose the background, which ended up being the large LIA banner. The background worked perfectly and made the interview look more professional.

We also stayed after school a few times to get more B-roll. We stayed for a general meeting and got some footage. It was not the best, so we did not end up using much of it. The shots were too zoomed out, and we felt a little awkward filming people too close. However, we also stayed for a guest speaker, Catalina Fortich, and we were able to get really good footage. We mic’d her so the audio was clear, and we recorded her entire presentation, using clips from it in the documentary.
