During this unit, we were given the task of portraying either a person, place, idea, or issue in our community creatively and truthfully. For the paper that we wrote in English and the documentary film that we created, we chose a stance on our subject and then built our work off of that angle statement.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For the Junior Documentary Project, we gathered primary and secondary research sources to develop a distinct perspective about our subject\u2019s significance in the community and even in the world.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Lilia and I were interested in the creation of online video on a popular platform that I’m sure everyone has heard of: YouTube.\u00a0 We decided to get more of an inside look on YouTube and how it functions, while exploring how it has provided a new network of careers and communities.<\/p>\r\n

DOCUMENTARY RESEARCH PAPER<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As an Honors student, I was tasked with writing a research paper that was 8-10 pages long, including important information that I gathered during the interviews that we did and academic database resources. In the paper, I focused on why YouTube is relevant in our world and how it is altering and impacting our society.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

ELECTIVE CLASS PRODUCTION<\/h2>\r\n

We kicked off our Documentary unit by dedicating one film class day to the creation of our Mockumentary film.\u00a0 This was our first official day of documentary work and we had just listened to a lecture on documentaries, so we were now prepared to go out and film one.\u00a0 Our task was to come up with a fake documentary topic, film it, and then edit it.\u00a0 In groups of three, we split up and scoured the Freestyle campus to look for locations where we would be able to film our ideas.\u00a0 The Mockumentary gave us the opportunity to exercise the documentary skills (composition, lighting, using LAV mics) that we had just learned as a practice for our official documentary film.<\/p>\r\n

Our Mockumentary is about a big secret that Mr. Greco, our English teacher, has been hiding from us!\u00a0 Watch the film to find out what happens to Ryan, Bella, and Isabel, the set crew of the Mockumentary \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t
