Progress So Far

Unfortunately I have a terrible memory and so completely forgot to be writing a journal of sorts in my blog describing my progress on the project thus far, but I will begin today. So far, I have had one two-hour interview with Clayton, the medical marijuana patient I am profiling... and I have another interview with him tomorrow. I have already gotten some really amazing audio (in fact, I already wish I could do twenty five-minute projects on him- I don't know how I am going to choose what to edit out!),and some good pictures as well. At this point, I plan on getting a lot more really good pictures and some video tomorrow and then will hopefully be able to put it all together Monday night for my rough draft.

I have already edited the pictures I took so far, and have done some audio editing, so I don't think it will be too hard to put it all together, mainly just picking and choosing what to include. I am also kind of conflicted about whether or not I want to use video, but I am leaning towards black and white pictures, which I feel would not work well with video included. Still, I am not sure if I definitely want to do black and white... I just think black and white photography really lends itself to stories with powerful emotion, which Clayton's story definitely has.
