Our shooting schedule one is a relatively simple one for a relatively simple film, but there were some changes in plan along the way of preproduction. We originally intended to interview a staff member from the Black Cat Shoppe, and we had written the questions for her and planned out some B-roll shots. But because the Black Cat Shoppe was in the process of opening another store in early February, they were very busy and unable to follow through with the interview.
Because of this, we needed to quickly find someone else to interview and a location as well. After we each contacted a few people, Victoria was able to arrange an interview with a staff member in the Cotton Exchange shopping area in downtown Wilmington.
The new production schedule is as follows:
-On Wednesday, February 19 we drove to the Cotton Exchange downtown with our equipment and we filmed the majority of the B-roll and vox pop footage. After setting up the camera and audio equipment we filmed various B-roll shots of the exterior of the building and the surrounding area, and we filmed most of our vox pops. We discovered after a few street interviews that some of the people might not know enough about the location for what we need, so we decided to ask people on the street what they know about the Cotton Exchange before asking for their interview. We also decided to get vox pops from employees in the shops there, as they were guaranteed to know a good deal about the area. This idea proved very effective for what we sought.
-On Saturday, February 22 we will interview our contact in the Cotton Exchange downtown at 12 noon. We will have questions ready and be prepared to set up for the filming.
-We may also film some additional B-roll or vox pop footage on Saturday as we see fit, but we will film most of all of that on Wednesday.
