FIRST SENT EMAILSINITIAL PLANNING

WEEK 1 + 2

As none of the members of our group are appropriate for the documentary and we feel we would rather concentrate on filming and editing footage, we have decided to ask someone else to be our voice over/ presenter (depending on target audience preference) As this person has a lot of experience in acting and it would benefit her too, I sent her an email to ask if she would be interested in doing it. If she is unable to, I will look into other people who could possibly be our voice over.

We decided to get into contact with a possible interviewee, who is a meninist and so it would be interesting to portray his opinion. It would be great if he could come into college and we could interview him.

We got a reply from one of the interviewee’s who has shown an interest in the idea of being in the documentary. However, he does not want people to know his identity or to associate him with Meninism and so therefore we will make sure that his identity is hidden from the cameras and so we will look into possible ways to hide identity. I will get back to him with a plan of the interview and questions I will ask him in due course.

We messaged Gillian Harthwaite, the head of the Feminist Society at Solihull Sixth Form. We would like to ask her questions about what she feels Meninism is and how it has been influenced by social media. Also, we feel that it would be a good comparison to the meninst, who obviously would have opposite opinions on the topic. We have therefore booked an interview into her schedule.

We sent a message to Touchwood Shopping Centre to ask them whether we could film in Touchwood and they messaged back saying no, but gave us an alternative Shopping Centre who we could ask.

We then messaged Mell Square and asked if we could film Voxpop videos there but they have not replied yet.
