No time to "Play" around


     I feel like my doc is missing something. Okay, I have my main characters and although my professor said I don't necessarily need an official, I kind of want one to strengthen the story… it’s a great thing I go to Florida A&M.
     Today I ran into Christopher Martin. He was the “Play” of “Kid and Play”, so I was really curious to see if he would mind being in my documentary. I think he would be the best person I could get in contact with to have a professional view on the evolution of stereotypes that haunt rappers today. Also, I figured he would a good plus since he actually spent time the entertainment industry. He agreed to be one of my interviewees and I was thrilled to have his input in the doc. For the time being, I have finalized where I would like to shoot for the documentary. Some places in mind are the rappers’ home, the music studio in J-School, the SGA office, and the architecture building (to see the rappers’ at work or in their element).
     It feels kind relaxed right now, there’s still a bit more preparation to do but as right now, everything is looking up. But I can't settle just yet, this is my grade I'm talking about.
