1. Who will you interview? Why? Where?

We will interview Andy Touhey, we feel it would be better to interview a person that we are familiar with as we will know how to work with them. We plan to do the interview infront of the blue screen, so that we can edit in a picture behind them. This way the mise en scene will be related to the subject being discussed.

2. What cutaways will you film

- a mobile phone, perhaps one that is desirable and an example of good technology- in classroom- high angle shot/ close up, to see different features
- images of the progression of how mobile phones have changed over the years- off internet
- pictures from the past and future in society- internet
- examples of different uses for phones e.g someone walking down the corridor calling someone- corridor- long shot/pannig shot
- examples of text language- reverse angle shot/over shoulder shot
- someone using a phone in class- in classroom- zoom in
- someone using different apps on their phone e.g internet, music and calling- close up
- someone with headphones in listening to music- classroom- mid shot

3. What props/locations will you need?

- a mobile phone, perhaps one that is a good example of change in technology
- examples of past phones, both of the internet and phones we still own
- images from past and present society
- we will only use the bluescreen as a location, so we can edit things in the background after
