Self Critique

Im pretty happy with how this final piece turned out. We decided to start with a smooth opening and give a little background on the family. The piece is shorter than I expected it to come out to be, but I think the cuts made were well thought out for the direction that we were taking this piece. There are a few changes I would make if I had more time to work on the piece. There were a lot of interesting points and stories that we heard during the interviews and I would love to lengthen this piece to fit those things in. We also were not able to interview the PA Mrs. Dorothy on camera. I know she has a lot of good insight on the family and I really think she could have been a good addition to this piece in giving a different angle to how the family is viewed.
I learned a lot about this family. They really helped me to understand the dynamics of a family that cares for a special needs individual. The piece is still going in initial direction that we were aiming to take the piece, but we made some cuts so that other things would not cloud the intent of the piece. I hope you like it!
