Proposal: "A Year in the Making" Film

"A Year in the Making" Film

For this semester's 20% time project I decided on making a video about my team for our banquet at the end of the season in June. Synchronized Swimming is something that we are all really passionate about, and I want to honor my team for sticking with it even if this year we had a really rough start. My goal is to bring my teammates to tears (of joy). I want to honor their dedication to this sport and all their hard work.
This film should be long enough to show our progression throughout the season, so I'm guessing it should be around 30 min long.
To film this I will be using a gopro (because it's waterproof) and my phone. To do this project I'm going to need to learn about film and editing. For the editing I'll probably use iMovie. 
The easiest part of this project will probably be the actual filming since all I really have to do is press record, and I also have all the materials I need for that.
The most difficult part of this project will probably be coordinating times to film during practice. I can't take too much of our practice time to do this because we have a lot of work to do with our meet coming up in March. The editing should also be fairly difficult since I don't really know much about it.
Most of the planning for this project will be done during the time given in class, but it will all be executed during my practices. My plan is make a video that shows how amazing everyone on my team is, and how strong we are for sticking together during a rough time.

  1. Definitely research what a documentary is, how they tell the story, etc. I have lots of resources from Comm Media.
