Research Part 2

I have been doing more reasearch and have run across a few more things related to what im doing. I have been checking out blogs and other types of information trying to see what the moms think and what they need to keep balanced. this i think will help me better understand what i need to shoot for this video.

http://bluesuitmom.com/ this is a blog type site to help the working mom

http://mcdayjob.com/2008/09/03/a-day-in-the-life-movie-trailerwritten-by-directed-by-and-starring-sticky-fingaz/ this is a documentary not about what i want to do but about a day in the life of type of situation.

the following i found all on one web site and they are just how to help manage your day.

http://www.motheratwork.co.uk/default.asp
http://www.mothersmovement.org.
http://www.womenemployed.org.

After doing much reading and looking at all different types of day in the life of stories i have grown a better understanding of the different types of shots that needs to be taken and all the other interviews and B-roll that go along with it. I have discovered its going to be a challenge to make this video complete but i am up to the challenge and i continue to do more reasearch. I also would like to do reaseach on Documentaries and how to make the shots blend better together.

the only way i feel up to this task is i have taken video editing classes and already have a certificate from a college during high school where i had to complete a documentary in order to get my certificate so i have done some previous research on how to make a documentary a complete documentary and not leave anything out but i still plan on doing more research on this.

Semester 2- Project Research

This is what i have found so far. It is not easy to find things on my topic but i have found that these really help me better understand what is going on...
The following are web sites i found that will help and i have also included some books that i have read write ups about but none of them are exactly like what im doing they are more of a help guide for working moms and my idea is to try and show what moms do and how their daily life is different no matter what they have to do.
