Documentary


1. Generate an Idea. Think of something that you might want to document on video. 

Well i would really enjoy making a video about Mr. Clarke, i feel like i would make a point valid in post production because he just has a lot of knowledge

2.  Brainstorm the information you know about this subject before filming.  

I know:
He might not want to do this at all
I should for sure have a back up plan
If he does do it, i want to just hear his experiences and where they have brought them
i dont think he will want to spill too much, but his perception of reality would be impressive
if he doesn't do it, i will just do crawford maybe but he might see that coming and sarah might use him
i would like to do some sort of person that is not a "star" of davidson, maybe a janitor or a lunch lady, just to show the importance of everyone and what not

3.  Make a rough outline of whom, where, and what you need to film. 

i would say i just take the h4 and go get his voice, with the other potential idea i would get b-roll

What is Creativity?

             What is creativity? Some people may look at creativity and see something that is blocked off from the world if you are not an artist or a designer of some sort. However my personal definition of creativity has many different forms within the own definition on account of the different aspects of life in which one can be creative. In my definition there is not one aspect of life in which creativity can not be one of the most top prized values in a person. To keep up in the world today you must be fast acting and have a variety of ideas to have the best results and have a positive difference on the world. You must also have the skill of composed creativity. What I mean by this is the ability to sit down and start from complete scratch and just go with it, even when there is nothing to go with. Sometimes thats when creativity is truly defined in a person. Taking nothing and turning it into something completely original and personal. Personality is one aspect of creativity that must be a part of it. I say this because if it is not your words or actions or whatever you happen to be working on, how could it be creative? That is nearly the opposite end of creativity, or maybe just hand-me-down-creativity. Because thats a real thing now.

              Creativity can also be mistaken for random thoughts or just a very smart idea. Anything that no one has ever thought of before can be seen as creative.
