Revelations & Preparations

I've narrowed my "characters" list down to Charlie Moor (community), Binghamton Regional Sustainability Coalition (environment), A local business (local business, haha), and I have a handful of contacts from my meeting with the West Side Neighborhood Project (local Housing Market).

I want these to be my strong four story lines.

Problem: the more I learn the harder this gets! There is so much information to sift through it's crazy. Everything I look into expands like life is made of .zip files and I'm an unarchiving program.

Solution: what?

I've taken my issue of overcomplicated subject matter and have decided that's the opposite of what I want my documentary to be. It's overwhelming and disengaging to be confronted with so much information. This is why I need my four storylines to be simple but representative.

I get really excited when thinking about making the documentary. how I'm going to edit it together and everything! in my brain this whole process will be a rush of activity and creation but I know it's going to be a slow and cumbersome process... but I am totally o.k. with that. I guess that means I chose the right career for me :)


I need to make a storyboard by the time classes start back up (September 4) so I don't have to worry about classes And how I'm going to make this work at the same time. classes will definitely be slowing my process to a crawl.

BLEAAAGGHHHH I'm excited and hesitant all at the same time! I'm a ball of ambition and naivety and that's the way I like it.
