After yesterday's meeting with our Lecturer we sailed on smoothly to a perfect finish of our project. Trixie unfortunately was not able to attend this meeting due to work commitments, however Simone (the Director) lead the discussion in informing our Lecturer as to where we are at present and what would be out next step.
It was agreed that once one of the footage with a bit of bad audio due to faulty equipment back in our shoot at Yarra Bay, was consider improper to use, we will be heading back to a re shoot at Yarra a date to be announced. Mayaro seems to be one of the scheduled places that will be marked off the the carded events,as we can obtain more primary date (vox pops) at another beach.
In an informal discussion with the Director we tossed around ideas for the sound of the footage, from sound effects to music beds.
Some of the sounds she requested included "crickets", rewinding record,sound of the national instrument, and other caribbean related as well as Trinidad and Tobago related beds. I suggested some tracks such as:
- Nah leaving by Denise Plummer,
- 3 Colours by Bungi, Faye Ann, and David Rudder
- My Land by Roger George.
- Brotherhood of the Boat by Brother Marvin
Tonight I read though some links shared by my group mates, with myself on the destruction of beaches along the same coastline as that of Columbus bay. The articles(see below) indicate the present determination to do what is needed to save and work on issues of that part of the country coastline.
