- Christmas - exploring people's thoughts on whether christmas is becoming to commericalised. And whether christmas should be secular or religious
- How old where you when - this included asking a series of questions about how old people were when they did particular things, for example stop believing in the tooth fairy. This may lead to a summary on whether children are growing up too fast.
- Global warming - none of us were really intersted in this topic but we just put it down to fill out the brainstorm. The disadvantage of doing this topic is that it a bit "over-done"
We decided to choose Christmas because we believed that it would raise the most interesting questions. I pointed out to the group that a disadvantage of doing a vox-pop about Christmas is that it's not Christmas time so while filming we won't be able to include a 'christmassy' background.
As a group we came up with idea of wearing santa hats to make up for not having christmas backgrounds. We then went out on the streets and tried out our questions. I took the role of selecting people to interview and interviewing them. It was difficult at first because of course many people refused to be stopped and asked questions but I think a large reason of why people refused was because we had to film it.
For next week we had the idea of bringing in sweets or goodies to give to the public after we had interviewed. We are hoping that this will encourage people not to be camera shy and recieve the treat.
Next week we will be vox-popping all day and our aim is to get most of the vox popping done. Asking a wide variety of people so we can gather as many opinions as possible.
