Class Trip

Yesterday our class took a trip to a strip center to find people to interview for our documentary on Global Warming. I thought it was going to be a lot easier then it was to find people to interview. Even though I ran the camera I still approached people to interview. We got a lot of people who said they don’t have time or that just ignored me. I was surprised that some people did not know a lot about global warming and one person didn’t really believe in Global Warming.

In total we endend up interviewing 4 people. I probably approached 8 different people that would not respond. The average person talked to us for just a few minutes. They answered all of our questions, and some where knowledgeable about the topic and others were not.

What worked well for us to get the interviews was getting the people who were walking into a restaurant to eat. When they were leaving they did not want to talk as much because they were “in a hurry” to get back to work or run more errands. If we did this again I think it would be better if we went to a place with a more people walking around like Westport Plaza or else a mall on the weekend. In total it worked very well and I’m glad it worked so well for our group.
