First off ill start by uploading the storyboard for the assignment. I intended to interview a club of people called the Company of the Dragon. They do medieval reenactment and western martial arts (SWORD FIGHTING!) Before anyone asks or thinks it, NO it is NOT like LARPING. Seriously, those nuts give us bad names! The Company of the Dragon use real metal weapons and though they practice the art as safely as possible, some serious injuries can still happen. The members wear armour that can range from 15 kg to 25kg full plate, wearing full faced helms and carrying steel weapons that weigh approximately 2-4kg each. This is no joke (unlike LARPING, which is a joke in everyone's eyes). I decided to interview this group because i was a member of a similar club in my hometown of Palmerston North, where i participated in Medieval Reenactment for about 7 years.
Storyboard:
I got the film (with the help of Josh Hargreaves) of the Company of the Dragon all in one sweep. I had about an hour and a half of footage to sift through and sort out so that the audio files from the recording device matched up with the video files. That was a fun fun fun job... took a long time and i have a few audio files left over that i cant seem to pair with any of the video.. But i have what i needed. The interview, once put together in Premiere will be just shy of three minutes, because im interviewing a group of people about a common hobby, rather than a single person (which seems to be a big theme). Somehow i feel like my interview will be easier to make longer because i talked to about 4 or 5 different people and got lots of different footage from the questions i asked.
