I posted this on yahoo answers and got nothing back. I'd love to hear your knowledge. Tell me i'm stupid and what could go wrong and all of that, because I literally know nothing about this stuff, but want to learn.
"Here's the deal. I want to make a documentary. It will all be filmed from my iphone, because I don't really have any other options, and it works well. I'm thinking I may carry around a voice recorder, because the sound quality of my iphone isn't fit for all of the settings I find myself in, such as concerts.
I'm in my senior year of high school. I work at the dairy queen down from my school with my best friend, my brother, and the kid that lived across the street from me since we were three till we were thirteen. My brother is a year older than me and a freshman at the U of O, out local college. Him, the neighborhood kid, named Dylan, our friend named Cameron, who goes to a school across town from us, Josh, who is also a freshman in college, and Daniel, a kid I've known since kindergarten, are all in a band together. They're pretty good, and trying to make it in Eugene's music scene that consists of mostly metal. (They are far from metal.) Daniel is leaving in June for boot camp. He's enlisted in the marines, and it really sucks. This is the last year it will be us neighborhood kids running our games. We already had our last summer.
Next to that, my mom, my brother, and I have two roommates that we got this summer. They're an artist guy and his 11 year old son from Arizona. It's a weird situation, but it works so well, we all just consider ourselves some weird family in the middle of hippie-eugene.
So what I'm asking is, how do I make this documentary interesting? They're usually very informative, and I feel like there isn't much information to be offered."
