We are close to forming our final idea for our documentary. We want to show Minnesota's passion for hockey using the Minnesota Wild, youth teams, and coaches of all levels. Our goal this weekend is to contact the Wild and see if we can get access to interview coaches, players, and other personnel. If we cannot get access, we will most likely focus entirely on hockey teams and coaches up to high school. People we know when get interviews from are my high school coach Shawn Reid and Simon's dad Martin Wolfe.
I learned several intriguing things from the reading. One, that Mark Zuckerberg had a steady girlfriend for most of the period covered by The Social Network, meaning that the movie twisted real life events more than I had known. Also, I learned that images from the Holocaust had been "passed through the machinery of ideological illusion making". This made me question even more the authenticity of propaganda. The passage as a whole enlightened me on the transformation of documentaries over time and how many are starting to skew real life events for the sole purpose of entertaining an audience.
