Moving into weeks 4-8 was a bit more challenging. We started our first interviews and now we are able to actually see where we are going with our documentary. One set back we faced is not being able to get the permission in time to schedule shooting on Chapel Hill's campus. We were strongly suggested to include more campuses in our research on hate speech but it took over a week to get in contact with the person who was in charge of UNC's on campus permissions and when I finally did, we couldn't do it over spring break like we hoped.
After talking to my group I think we can still make a powerful documentary if we still focused our attention to UNCW. These next couple months will either make or break our doc. We still have interview subjects we need to schedule and possible on-campus rallies, or public speakers we can shoot to get more of a feel for the "free speech" aspect of our film. Overall, there still needs work to be done but I think we've come far enough to be able to finish strong. We are used to having to make changes to abide to our schedules and production, so we should be able to stay on track
