For my video class we have to film and edit a documentary. We were asked to focus on something we are familiar with and something that the other classmates may not be able to bring to the table. Considering my dad is a truck driver and it is something I am mildly familiar with, I decided to follow my dad around with a camera. -In this assignment I learned to be prepared for the worse; 1)Converses do not make good cold weather gear 2)Gloves are a necessity even if it does make filming more difficult (it is more difficult when your fingers go numb) 3)You loose your batteries a lot quicker in the cold!!!
Ultimately, this was a great experience. I got to learn first hand how to frame and compose video and some of the challenges that go along with that. I get to show the world what my Dad does as a truck driver. And once I got back into my heated car it didn't take terribly long for me to get the feeling back in my hands and feet!
