Right, well after an eventful weekend, I've come to some establishments regarding my short film...
So I've become quite flexible with this project now. My visions of the perfect Wind farm scenery and pollution from power stations went out the window a few weeks ago and I'm being more realistic and trying to aim on what I can actually acheive so I'm looking at waste, recycling and local renewable energy schemes. I made some phone calls this morning and I have 4 possible places for interviews but all of them have just given me a response of 'we'll get back to you' in some shape or form so I'll need to keep pestering them every couple of days to have any fighting chance. I am genuinely looking forward to this next week, I think it'll be good fun and I really need to make an effort to try and be as nosey as possible with questions and to make sure everything's set up perfectly.
I've had to update the time plan I have for this project as I can't begin my storyboard until I know what video footage I have. There are also a few more processes that need completing and as I have next week off for half term, I will try to cram more work in then as I should have my video footage all collated. I found a template for release forms on the four docs website which I've slightly modified to use for next week and I found some good tips to bare in mind about how to treat the interview and such. I will also start an every day diary today about the status of these phone calls so I can reflect and review if it's starting to look negative at the end of the week and try an alternative approach.
Everything is starting to close in now, and it's all on a slippery slope, so fingers crossed that we start getting some phone calls!
