In this video I wanted the viewer to get the feeling that they're following along a trail of water, running towards its source. For this video, I captured several images of puddles, streams, and shots of Lake Michigan, going from little to big.

Rough Cut Sketch #3: Water
This video encompasses clips of Lake Michigan and the water on its shore. I thought it would be interesting to see different amounts of water, from close ups, shots from the shore's point of view, and more vast shots of the lake.
Production Strategy
1. I want to explore the areas around the Milwaukee River more. I want to find its nooks and crannies and "secret" spots. I want to especially explore its bridges.
2. I once again would like to focus a lot on capturing lines in images to give the feeling of movement but this time using more drastic measures of space. Like images of lines from a wide shot and then close up shots of lines. I also want to try to take pictures that make you want to see the rest of the sky.
3. I want to try and focus on finding distinct exciting sounds. Last time most of my sounds were all steady, muffled, background sound. I want to get my mic close to the source.

Ten Questions
1. About how many different kinds of birds are in this area at the start of spring?
2. Are there any more small parks in the area I haven't found yet?
3. Are there any cool graffiti spots?
4. Where can I find the most interesting foreground sounds?
5. How many different areas can I find that are old and hardly touched (ex: warehouses, statues, fences, etc...)
6. Are there any more bridges over the Milwaukee River that I haven't discovered yet?
7. Where can I find the best views of the sky?
8. Where can I get close to the Milwaukee River, as in the water physically?
9. Can I find images of static and moving areas that can blend in fluidly together?
10.

Drift Assessment #4
My favorite place that I discovered was the bridge over the Milwaukee River by the park off of Warren Ave. I did not know that that small park existed and had never noticed that particular bridge before. I thought the bridge itself was beautiful. It had a rustic red color and when you stood on it you could see so many wonderful sights. You could see old warehouses, new condos, old houses, the Milwaukee River and other bridges over it.
