I will be doing the interviews, and filming the majority of the content, as well as editing the piece. I'm not going to appear on camera. A friend of mine from my college video production class has offered to help me, and I may ask her to do so, because all of the filming is being done in the course of a week, because this film revolves around a week leading up to the team's first game of the season. I probably will acknowledge to the interview subjects that I will be narrating the film as well. For logistical reasons (and because their opponent has not been announced yet) I am doing this film from the perspective of one team, but I will try to be as objective as possible in terms of the narration, and the filming, at least during the game.
In terms of filming, I will try to film the game play, and maybe let my partner handle the reaction shots from the sidelines. If it works out this way, we'll both be on the sidelines, but I will be in another spot filming the game. Of course, I need to check with the coach, and if I have enough time with my schedule (assuming I don't have school) I will have enough time in my schedule to attend the coaching sessions, the practices, and to schedule interviews.
I've been wanting to watch some of Michael Moore's films, because I tend to fall in line with him politically, and even though he makes himself a part of the film by appearing on-camera, it is effective because of the research that he does, which helps him to make his points clearly. I will have to take a look at the others, especially Alex Gibney, because he has a new documentary about the incident during Game 6 of the Cubs-Marlins National League Championship Series where a fan interfered with a foul ball and robbed Moises Alou of a possible catch, leading to the Cubs losing the game, and eventually the series, continuing the bad luck of the Cubs franchise. It's coming out sometime next year as part of the ESPN "30 for 30" series. Thanks for the advice and suggestions.
