We all gathered on early on thursday March 25th to shoot our final footage for the video. This time we were going to shoot the cafeteria with people in it eating and interacting. We really would have liked to have announced to everybody who we were and what we were doing, but Mary told us just to go ahead and start shooting, nonchalantly. We had a few people ask us concernedly whether we were with the news, and they were fine was we told them we were students, etc. We really weren't shooting any close-ups of any body in particular and those that really didn't want to be on camera at all, expressed so. I think it went well for the most part. We were there for about 5 hours, and in addition to capturing the cafeteria momentum, we captured Mary interacting with a couple of people. We interviewed Harold again, this time we made sure to use a Lavaliere mic. We recorded both him and Mary reading the same voice over, to see which one we will use in the video or to interchange between the two. We captured Harold doing a very brief "welcome" in front of the building, which was an idea Shaun came up with that day. We have now been working on editing and compiling our research.
