In responding to the challenge, I downloaded the zips provided by remix the species and found myself drawn to the footage of the beauty queens. It led me to think about the metaphorical fences they drew around each other, representing a state or country with defined borders and latent rivalries. Brought together in a competitive environment, who knows what bubbles beneath the sugared surface?

What do I want to say about fences?
We have decided to include a visual piece in the film which is a dedication to what we think about fences or what we have learnt about fences. I want to make sure that what I say contributes to the meaning of the film and doesn’t distract the audience from the ideas that we have already been focusing on. So far we have been focusing on these ideas….

Interviews:
-We have completed the interview with the artists. It was a great experience but now we are really stepping back and reviewing the footage to see if it is relevant. We are thinking that we will only use a small amount of the interview footage. However the artist’s performance work provided us with some great visuals and inspired some ideas for visuals.
-We are completing an interview with Michael from Sharehood this Friday. We think he will provide us with content that’s devoted to the metaphorical tearing down of fences.
-We are still in the midst of organising an interview with an international student.
