Interview with Prof. Bruce Thomas on the History of the Chandler-Ullmann Building

For my video project, I chose to do the history of the Chandler-Ullmann building. It took two days to be satisfied with the amount of photos and sound footage I was gathering, and i incorporated a good amount of them in this video. I did a lot of online research on the history, as well as tweeted ASA Packer's Ghost as to what he/she knows, and got more resources to find information. From this, I compiled a set of questions to ask the people I wanted to interview.

When it came to recording the actual interview, I prepped Professor Bruce Thomas, Professor of Architecture, with the order of questions I wanted to ask. I had already planned for two people for my interview, but weather definitely messed with both of those scheduled meetings with professors and finding people who actually knew more substance behind the history became a scavenger hunt. However, the one interview I was able to get was more than perfect because I had prepared myself and Prof. Thomas very well before hand and he was very knowledgeable to the point that recording flowed very smoothly.

I think this time around I was very content with the outcome of my project, especially because I learned a bunch of history that I probably wouldn't have learned before. I think I'm getting the hang of making and editing videos a lot better.
