We have decided to do our film as a documentary about Walter - a man with an obsession for collecting anything and everything. We will interview him, follow him around on his daily routine and listening to him explain his obsession.
We will use exploratory panning shots of his house to show the viewers his vast collection of stuff, combined with more "real" shots of following him around, with a running commentary of the sound from the interview, which we will occasionally cut to.
Using the conventions of documentary film making and our imagination, we're hoping to create an interesting and light-hearted film that will allow us to use a variety of techniques and get a decent grade for us all :)

Cinematographer
I will be taking the role of cinematographer, or camera design.
I plan to use documentary style cinematography in this piece. Conventions of documentary camera include stillness during interviews (usually in a mid-shot view, with the subject looking offside to the interviewer, not at the camera.), shakiness during filming the subject's real life (to show the filming isn't planned, establishes what going on is real, not staged), Here are a few examples of short documentaries:
