Week 4- Animated Documentary

This week I was unable to attend two of the interviews that we had planned, as I was unwell but Dan and Guy had kept me updated with the response that we had received from the interviews. The next day we had all met up and tried to come up with some ideas  for a story based off all the recordings that had been gathered, but this didn't really go as planned as we were still struggling to come up with a strong idea that was simple but still really effective. 

Steve had suggested that we all watch a documentary called 'Isabella' by Ross Hogg. this documentary wasn't really clear as there was quite a lot of noise over the documentary, but we did get one idea that we all agreed on for our animation, which was that we all wanted to include the close ups of the elderly woman, like the elderly woman in the documentary 'Isabella'. We all thought that these would be a really strong scenes within our animation.

I also found a film on Netflix called 'Still Alice' this film was about a woman around the age of 50 who started to develop signs of Alzheimer's. Personally I thought that this film was really good especially because it showed both perspectives of the effects that Alzheimer's has on people and the people around them, It demonstrated the struggles that she was having with the early stages of Alzheimer's as she was a lecturer. Although I don't think that this film would of helped us with coming up with ideas for a storyline, I do still think it was relevant to watch for research.
