29A – Venture Concept No. 2

So the structure I am now following is:

• Get to know the patient personally;
• If filming becomes an opportunity to enhance that person's life, I propose the idea;
• If the patient agrees, I film an interview, without any B Roll;
• Based on the interview, I build the story for the short film;
• With the story in mind, I return to film the B Roll in the next weeks, up until everything is complete;
• I also incorporate a brief, explanatory interview with the patient's attending physician;
• Editing is done, video is released.

I am excited to try this new strategy. It has been super arduous work, but it's been equally fulfilling and unfolding in incredible ways.
