Week 6 Update

We were originally planning a trip to Wallace, NC for this past Friday, but Emma's aunt was feeling under the weather, so we are rescheduling that trip for Saturday, March 5th, depending on my work schedule. Yesterday, my group and I took a trip to Wrightsville Beach and gathered some shots of the ocean and surrounding area to potentially use as b-roll when individuals discuss why they choose to live in Wilmington specifically. We have the Carolina/Kure Beach couple set up to interview this coming Friday, February 26th and will be getting both footage of them doing things around the house and shots of the house and its proximity to the beach. I sent emails to the gerontology professors to confirm the dates for their interviews. I'm still waiting to hear back, but hopefully things will remain as planned with Dr. Anne Glass on Monday, March 29th and Dr. Andrew Zeldin on Friday, February 4th. Erin Rhyne, the Life Enrichment Director at Carolina Bay is available to interview on Friday, March 11th. We will most likely be speaking with 1 or 2 residents that day, as well. We will also be sitting in on an activity/class/event at Carolina Bay in the coming weeks, to capture how the residents interact with one another on a social level, and also to have as overlaid footage when they talk about what they enjoy about living at the retirement community. I am still waiting on approval from the regional director at Lake Shore Commons. I'm planning on hearing word on that sometime this week.
