So a few weeks ago, I knew nothing about interlacing, 1080/60i, HDV versus HD, pulldown removal, 24p, nor information about most CODECs. Trying to get a nice quality DVD has been quite the learning experience.
My camera verges on being too complicated for me.
Okay, I now feel like the documentary's becoming real. I interviewed a Haiti activist this morning, and got all of the bullet points that I was looking for. I'm now totally hyped to film the world.
I didn't manage to connect with a particular trans guy at WisCon (I think my message to him was too late). But the trans documentary is lower priority to me than the Haiti documentary.
As an aside, after this weekend, I'm tempted to title my trans documentary, "The Transfolk Documentaries Don't See".
