Our documentary group is suffering from a lack of communication. I can't help but feel angry when Stacy doesn't seem to care, but then all of a sudden he'll do something without me and not even tell me, regarding our project. Joe is kind of in between, mostly because he's best friends with Stacy, they live together, and he doesn't want awkward conflict in their relationship, I think, but that he agrees more with my ideas. I feel like Joe and I are on the same page when it comes to what we want to be shooting and what story we're trying to tell, and Stacy isn't. It's nothing that will create serious problems within our group, personally, but I'm afraid the outcome, our documentary, will suffer. Joe and Stacy went to talk to Mr. Christy yesterday about when we can interview him, but the connection was never made, so we're going back tomorrow. Hopefully the interview will happen early next week so we can move on to the interview with Sam Graves and shoot more B roll so we can make a decent trailer. I'm still excited for the project, it's going to be a lot of fun.
I loved all of the questions we were presented with in the reading. I always feel like I have a clearer head when I understand questions that I am working towards the answer. My favorite part of the reading though was the 'Top' of the issue, the 'Heart' of the issue, and the 'Root' of the issue. I always have a hard time separating what I want out of something into groupings that specific, but it's going to be really helpful, especially working on teh documentaries. I'm definitely convincing our group to use that format.
