We shot our Vox-pop again in a new location on the college grounds but kept our interviewees the same as they were all students, we still need to film more for this part of our work but we have another time slot for that. An issue with the vox-pop could be background noise.

We then went up to Hillcliffe church to film an interview again that we had previously done in order to improve the Mise-En-Scene and the camera angle, we filmed John Harper, who is a youth worker that runs a project for teenagers but sometimes finds drinking an issue around the project. This was our strongest interview to date as the camera angle was perfect, we also filmed some cutaways up in the area and got some impressive shots from above Warrington.

We filmed our interview with a teacher:



The answers to all of the questions were detailed and he sentenced it so that it appeared we didn't ask them.
However, the set up of the camera is too zoomed out and there is too much background around him.

21st November 2014

We contacted a corner shop about an interview but they did no sell alcohol so there was no point arranging an interview with them.
We then looked online for close supermarkets and found the number for Morrison's round the corner from college so rung up and they agreed to take part in our documentary. We need to get back in contact to arrange this.
We also have arranged an interview with a teacher on the subject which will take place on Monday at 1pm.

18th November 2014

We filmed the interview with the underage band about them drinking before gigs



the mise-en-scene works well because they are in a recording studio

the set up was difficult as there is 3 of them but works well as they are all in it

they answered the questions sensibly and truthfully about underage drinking

17th November 2014

We have arranged an interview for 5.30pm tonight with a club event organiser.
We have also got in contact with an parent to discuss underage drinking when she was young and are waiting for a time and date to do the interview.
We have an interview on Thursday at 2.30pm in Birchwood with a nurse who deals with addiction.

We carried out the interview with the club promoter, set up in Jacks kitchen with alcohol in the background, however the microphone didn't work so we cannot use the interview.

14th November 2014

We have arranged an interview on Tuesday of next week with an underage band who drink before, during and after their gigs even though they are not 18. We are yet to hear back from most of the people we want to interview so have send another e-mail to each one saying it is urgent they get back to us soon.
We also have an interview on the Wednesday with a parent on her own children underage drinking and we have arranged to do our vox-pop on the Wednesday as well.

10th November 2014

We have spoke to a counsellor and the police who have both agreed to carried out interviews for us, we just need to get back in contact and arrange dates and times in which we can do this.

5th November 2014

Today we filmed two of our interviews and the cutaways we will use for our documentary.
We interviewed John Harper, a youth worker who set up a project for teenagers on Friday nights and has dealt with a lot of underage drinking. Also an elderly resident who discussed what underage drinking was like when she was a teenager.

Elderly resident Interview :



the set up works well as she is not central but not too much to the side

the lighting was strong

the mise-en-scene works as there is old pictures in the background

she gave detailed and relevant answers

 

 

 

John Harper Interview:

 

 

 

he is too far over to the side

the background is a bit messy and doesn't link to the topic

his clothes are related to the topic 

during the interview he kept looking at the camera

however his answers were very detailed and told us a lot about the topic
