Concept
The theme for my video is student coffee addiction but I am looking at it
from the point of view from the baristas making and serving the
beverages. I want to explore the opinions of the people who have to put
up with the legions of students buying coffee from them every day. Can
they identify a customer that is a student as opposed to a non-student? Do
they get sick and tired of serving the same students day in and day out?
Do the students that they serve buy their coffee at a specific time of the
day or even at a certain time in the year?
I want to explore the ideas that there is an equal number of students
buying coffee as there are non-students and that they only get their coffee
to take away rather than have it at a café because of the hectic pace of
the student lifestyle. These trends are what I want to look into for the
documentary. I especially want to talk about how the coffee drinking habits
of students differ from everyone else.
I want to see if there is any identifiable difference between a student
coffee drinker compared to a non-student as viewed by the barista serving
them.

The website
For the website I decided to use the second iteration of my clips since it is far more serious in its tone. To display this in the background I created an image of a cross in black and had it decay at the edges by using a brush on it. Around it I had black brush splatters at the edge of the screen to give it a very gritty feel.

Story-boarding and developing concept
This is the storyboard for the first video. The beginning of the clip is composed of the "Our Father" prayer with images of nazi troops marching and then cuts to speeches made by Adolf Hitler accompanied by audio snippets from the "Holy Terror" documentary.

Remixing
The relevance of the aticle "Remix and Remixability" by Lev Manovich to project one is that he predicts the direction in which technology and the use of the internet is heading. He believes that all content is remixable from the internet and that it is becoming a trend for creators to provide access to the inner workings of their projects for others to expand upon. the affect this has on project one is the sheer amount of copywrite free content available for redistribution in our own vision.
