First week of shooting

This week we finally started shooting and it was great to meet our subjects and to start getting an idea of what the film is going to be. The girls all seem excited about being a part of our documentary and willing to share insights on their creative lives. So far we have met Quincy, Morgan, and Natalie. We are still waiting to meet our fourth subject, Sarah. Natalie and Morgan live in Wilmington while Quincy lives in Leland. All three of the girls are interested in art and know each other from going to the same school. Our assignment for this week was to shoot some B-roll and edit it down to a two-minute clip. We got shots of their artwork, some of them being in sketchbooks, hanging up in their rooms, or placed on an easel. Quincy has decided on going to school for journalism and shared some of her writing with us. We got some shots of her diaries that had a mixture of art and writing. I’m excited to see what were going to learn from these girls
