Three of the ideas that I have for this final project in my theme of sports is to interview people about bad injuries that have gotten while playing sports. Another idea I had was so have people tell the story of their best memories while playing sports. My third idea was to have people talk about any of their worst memories they have of sports.

I am not sure which topic may be better between having people tell the story of their best memories they have from sports or having them tell the story of their worst injury. I want to choose the one that will get the most emotion.

The topic that I am leaning towards is having people tell the stories of their best memories they have from sports.

I am choosing this idea because I have a lot of great memories from sports. I want to get emotion from the people I am interviewing and I think it is easier to show they are happy than sad. I am also interested to hear about what other people think of when they think of sports since most people think of their best time when they think back on them.

The locations I was thinking on shooting this footage in was either outside in a grassy area or in the different peoples rooms. I am not sure which I would rather do yet. I am leaning more towards doing it outside.

If I end up shooting outside I will have to be aware of the sun and where it is in the sky. It is not good to shoot when the sun is behind someone of straight above. I was thinking that I would shoot the people talking from straight on as if we were having a conversation. I may explore more how it looks when leaning the camera up slightly at them.

For the places that I want to shoot I do not be permission from people to shoot there because they are my friends rooms or outside in public places.

Potential problems I may have is a lot of background noise while shooting outside. If I were to shoot inside I may get better sound. I will test run both places and see which works better. Shooting outside could also lead to difficulty with weather. Another issue I may run into it not getting the emotion from people I was hoping for. I may need to try different ways for them to show and talk about what I want them to.

I am going to find out all the peoples schedules that I am planning on interviewing. I may end up recording inside incase the only times we can meet is at night. I am planning to record at least one to two people every time I record. I will then listen and watch the recordings and decide what ones I want to keep if not all of them.
