I was very excited about how we're going to be working on a film, and where we are the producers, director,etc.
My topic was education.I thought that Education would be a little complicated because in China in 1989 the students did a protest against the government and the government massacered them, but it wasn't that hard at all. My group members are Wayne and Shoba. We all worked pretty good with each other and had no dispute. I gained a lot of knowledge and skill working with the TIG staff, who were very helpful.
During this project we faced many obstacles, such as group arguements,although we overcame those obstacles. We had to write to other organizatons for some information about our topic or issue, where they sended us a lot of information.We made two display boards where we kept all our written work on it, to show the people so they can see what we have been doing so far. We did brochures on our topics so people will have some background knowledge about our issues where they can read. We also did some art work about our topic which is shown in the documentary film.We also did business cards where we put our name and phone number so they can call us if they need to.
Our TIG Festival "Globalize This" was on Thursday May 20, 2004. We had a great time, and had a wonderful experience in making a movie.We also gained a lot of knowledge and skills working with you guys, you made me realize how important our world is to us and how we must treat it and how we can still improve it.
