Feature story #2

In video, we created a 2nd feature story. The concept for my feature story was The life of an ONW football player. So i really just got into what its like to be a football player, what the pros and cons are and how it affects his life.  The whole theme for this feature story, was to get a better understanding of what its like to be a football player at Olathe Northwest High School. I combined the narrative lead and nut graph into one statement, but it helped make my feature story better because it really started it off right and made everything else flow easier. I interviewed ONW football player Jon Bowman and his football coach, Coach Sherman. These two really complimented each other and i think just went perfectly. Jon shared how much football has impacted him and what he loved about it, and then his coach would share how Jon has impacted the team and what he was really good at and what his strong suits are. Im glad i chose Jon and coach Sherman because it really flowed nicely and went great. Throughout the filming process, i did run into a few bumps. For example, the camera had a blue tint to it when i tried to shoot and i asked how to fix it but we couldn't figure it out so it just had to stay like that. Also it was a little hard to come up with a good voice over and script but that is more so just something i have to learn to do better. Besides those things, both of my interviewees were super easy and fun to work with. When we watched my video in class, i didn't get too much feedback for things i needed to fix except to fix the blue tint. Overall it was a great video and experience.
