Documentary Update

Even though our group had to change our original documentary topic, I am happy with the new direction we took and think that our message is a meaningful one.

We interviewed a Jewish couple who are friends with my grandparents, who are Christians. We also interviewed my grandparents about their interfaith friendship/relationship with the Jewish couple. We finished filming before Easter break and have almost 2 hours of footage. Based on this, I do not think that we will have any trouble meeting the required 10-12 minute time limit.

Our participants were really excited to help with our project in any way possible. We have a plethora of old photographs and it was easy to talk with all 4 of our participants. Our documentary group is ready to start editing footage. We plan to put our footage on an external hard drive and will start editing this week so we can have a rough cut done by the April 24 deadline.
