For our first story Jessica and I chose to interview the owner and customers of Home and Planet, an eco-friendly furniture/jewelry store. We asked the owner about what the store specializes in, what the demographics of his clientele are and how he got the idea to create the store. We included several voice overs with b-roll to better explain the story. We also included two or three soundbites that were visually appealing and fit in well with the rest of the footage. To introduce the story, we made a standup followed by a voice over to guide the viewers into the store as if they were walkin into the store themselves.
Probably the hardest things to accomplish were getting people to talk to us and being able to film the standup outside the store in E 3rd St. with all the traffic roaring by (it was both distracting and hard not to laugh).
Also, keeping the camera still seems to be a recurring problem with all all of our videos. Throughout our videos there is visual progression. We'll just keep practicing at it.
We chose this location because we had never heard about it so we thought it would be a good way to start our tv reporting skills.
