My participation thus far in the production process has varied. I have been taking production stills at each of the shoots as well as operating the video cameras. I feel that in the group we all trade off on all of the roles so that everyone has an opportunity to participate in all aspects of production. We discussed what we wanted to cover for the research project and how we wanted to arrange our footage for our video in progress screening. I have agreed to help in researching our topics and compiling our powerpoint as well as come together as a group to make the video in progress edits. I believe that are group is on track although we are finding it somewhat difficult to represent the ATP students in a good light. We have tried coaching them through the interviews but we are still struggling to have them answer questions in a way that makes them editable. We are working on making them feel comfortable with us so that they will be less nervous. I think that getting feedback on what footage we have thus far will help us head in the right direction.
