When it was time to start actually producing our documentary, we started filming on the day that Mrs. Stoklosa wasn't in class. We were supposed to talk to her about our project but we had to start filming ASAP because the project's deadline was approaching. So, our first stop was the cyber security classroom. We wanted to interview a teacher so that we could demonstrate gen z slang through the perspective of a teacher, but the teacher for cyber security didn't want to be interviewed so we just let some of the students in the cyber security room volunteer for the interview. We couldn't interview the students in the class immediately because they were going to take a quiz so we had to go back later when they were finished.
So, in the meantime we filmed some b-roll of Cypress Bay. We filmed some b-roll of the 900s building, and specifically where it said Cypress Bay at the top. We also asked permission to film outside the school to get an establishing shot of the school. The security guards let us go outside for a few minutes to get the shots that we needed which was great. We thought they wouldn't let us but they did! So, we filmed three still shots, one of the stone sign that says cypress bay in front of the school, one of the grass that has the Cypress Bay logo imprinted on it, and one of just the school. After that we went back into school and filmed another shot right under the catwalk.
When it was time, we went back to the cyber security room to film the interviews we needed. In total, it was three students that we interviewed in there. There was going to be a fourth but we ran out of time to do another interview unfortunately. Each of the three students had a different perspective to gen z slang, which was perfect. Alec and I were hoping for a variety of responses, we weren't really looking for the same answers to our interview questions. So, I thought that those interviews went really well and that we got good information. When the bell rang I filmed a pov shot of me walking through the hallways on Alec's phone.
Later that day, I filmed another interview during my lunch. I had interviewed my friend Tomas, he gave me good answers which was great! I had also filmed some b-roll on my own after school during dismissal. I filmed two shots while I was waiting for my bus. When I got home, I filmed an interview with my younger sister. The quality of the shot wasn't as great because my camera quality isn't that good compared to Alec's camera quality. However, my sister did give me good responses!
