The Sounds of York Mills

1~ the film is told from the point of view of a student in York Mills who is exploring the different bands at our school. The students are showing the different musical taleents and different stlyes of music found in York Mills played by both teacher and students.

2~ In this film the most effectively used documentary techniques would have to be interactive because we got involved by interviewing the different bands. And also observational because at some points we just filmed the bands jamming out and just being themselves. We were just watching as a third party not getting involved.

3~ The style of the film was to show who the bands were and the talents that they held. We did this by having interviews with the bands and some members individually and then filming the bands playing together. This serves the content because it exposes who the bands are to the viewers and then goes into detail about who the bands are and their inspiration(s).

4~ my favorite character in the film is Brian Davis. When we sat down and talked to him individually he gave us a very good insight into music in his life and music in his band. Brian was very natural infront of the camera and didn't try and put on a show he just told us what we wanted to know and gave us good answers. If I had to cast one perosn for this part I would cast no one but Brian Davis himself because noone else would be able to show the passion and love you can see in his face when he is playing or even talking about his music.
