As I mentioned before, I've been thinking about this project since the beginning of the year. However I couldn't start coming up with ideas for I until we did our documentary project in class. I kind of knew that I wanted to do the documentary "package" for my portfolio project because I've always loved documentaries (especially animal ones hehe) and hearing stories, people fascinate me and documentaries work perfectly with my passion of giving people a voice.
So, as the year went along and I came up with ideas I think could actually work, because there were plenty that I immediately shot down, I'd write them in the notes app. I named the note FILM IDEAS.
The following are the ideas word for word on my notes app (sorry if they're a little all over the place):
Documentary #1
Subject: dance
Interview: dani, luisa, manu, Andre
Narrate: me (use own experience)
Make it sections (acts)
Act 1: beginnings (baby dancers)
Act 2: growing with dance
Act 3: hitting rock bottom (losing motivation)
Shot ideas
Filming me on tv screen when I was little dancing and then my mom saying I was so cute (spanish w subtitles)
Sitting down and talking to the camera
Interview luisa and manu with b roll footage of them at the bar (dancing)
Other ideas
- music
- Losing motivation in gen
Documentary #2 (episodic)
Subject: Something surrounding Hispanic culture in America (immigration, kids of immigrants, Language)
Interview: Family, anyone Hispanic in school (deem worthy)
