Knox, Cody, and I worked in Chapel Hill this weekend. We had an initial plan to go and shoot b-roll around the town. Irina, the subject, grow up there. She went to high school there, and intended to transfer back to UNC Chapel Hill. A lot of her friends that I had been working on cntacting have moved away, but through the week I finally managed to get into touch with their highschool english teacher, Michael Irwin, I've mentioned him before.
Mr. Irwin agreed to let us come over, and he was going to give us an interview. It really was a boost to my morale for the assignment, and I think to the groups. This was one of the first personal interviews we had booked. Saturday morning, just before we were hitting the road to Chapel Hill, Mr. Irwin canceled. It was a pretty hard kick. We ended up just with the b-roll. We scouted some locations for possible future shoots, but felt a little defeated, I think. It's really been a struggle to get the kind of material we has planned on.
