Script and shooting script. Gemma Whipp

Over the weekend i asked Scott to do a script while i carried on thinking about the shooting script, the result of scott's script proved for this two people need to be together since scott did forget about a lot of things that needed to be included and he focused a lot on the college which is not what i wanted, In-between helping Lizzie and Sam with their filming i've been in a fighting battle to try get scott to be more pro-active in this project which i am finding difficult he wants to be told what to do instead of thinking about what needs to be done.

The shot list is almost complete i am just trying to fill in some small gaps without using cut away shots i was going to use Kathy's video diary to help build the story more on the more personal level get my audience right in there kind of like a nick broomfield interview where he is always pushing the boundaries more and more.

Some of the documentaries I've been watching are:
Kurt Cobain- For the drug usage in this doc they are quite open to talk about their drug uses which Kathy is finding difficult to talk about she didn't use the drugs to get high she did them purely help ease the pain when in her early stages of her M.S
Festishes- the reason i watched this one was to see how i can talk about difficult subjects in interviews things that can happen with MS that cant be helped are always quite sensitive and in this film they used lots of different ways to show this with clients and the mistresses in the film. They interviewed the mistresses in their homes as well as in pandoras box, they concealed clients identities to get better interview responses all these things made its easier for the interviewees to give good answers.

Watching Nick Broomfield has helped me a lot to understand how to talk about certain subjects and to understand there are ways to get the answers you want by the way you word things.
