Research & Meeting

Have managed to read a little more about Alec's concentration camps (quite harrowing) but not Anita's - although did find an article about her in the Telegraph. Also found a bit on the 'Boys' who were evacuated from Poland when they were liberated, although Alec is not mentioned very often but still a bit of background info. Have sent the links round for the concentration camps on an email and the Boys article (PDF) and copied Anita's article into word as it didn't come out very well as a PDF. Anita's camps (Auschwitz & Belsen) are probably more well known - however will try and do a bit of research before the filming on Thursday(!). At the meeting last week we roughly sorted out a time table and who was doing what - I'm currently a member without office (general dogs body!) although I will be working on the final version of the proposal/write up as it may change. We did come up with some questions for the teenagers and it was also suggested that we come back with some questions for the interviewee's next week - so hopefully the research I sent round was helpful. I also booked the Mac's/camera's out when I went up to borrow one to refresh myself on the clip editing software. The filming has also been changed to De Havilland rather than College Lane studio - and that's about it, apart from the fact that I now have a cold, so I may be banished from the studio, especially if I'm coughing/sneezing/or blowing my nose at the wrong moment! Did think of a job I could be doing any way - could start loading film up on the Mac's as the interviews finish. Would save time later - will suggest at next meeting.
