And the film would reflect a lack of planning, a spontaneity.
But if I carry my camera all of the time I run a high risk of fucking it up. So I am afraid to have it all the time.
Moreover, if I schedule things, and shoot them, I am shirking my responsibilities as a planter. My boss will not be happy.
Is this doomed?
I don't know. I think it will have to change. I am now thinking a lot about Franz Otto.
I thought it could be like participatory observation documentary, but that would require an even smaller camera - a coolpix or something.
Hoping to interview Patrick (aka. "Cheese") the other crew boss at some point today to ask him about Franz, etc. Hoping to explore wow planters give meaning to their work and lives. Planters being people who don't quite cut it in "society," maybe. Think that is interesting.
Cheese is funny, besides.
