After having a meeting with the Young Lives Foundation, we was able to discuss with them what case studies were suitable for our documentary. As a group we originally decided that we would have one person who had done the programme as well as one case study that has currently joined the programme.
One case study YLF gave us was about a girl called Louise, who has been through the process of The New Directions Programme. After leaving the programme she has done a variety of appearances for the YLF, including, talks and Children in Need 2013. Due to her being over 18 she can give her own consent on being part of the documentary.
We was able to get into contact with Louise and speak to her about the documentary and what were hoping to achieve from it. She really liked the idea of it and was happy to be involved with the documentary.
Our next step was to meet up with Louise and discuss what ideas we have for her part as well as gathering as much information on her story, etc.
We discussed with Louise on what information YLF had sent us over about Louise and found that there was much more to Louise's story that wasn't included. There were some key locations that popped up to me in Louise's story, especially the places where she had changed for the better, that I thought would be interesting to show in the documentary.
Overall she seemed very open with her story and didn't mind talking about what problems she went through. I feel much better that Louise is very happy to be involved with the documentary. All we have to do now is find another case study.
