Change of idea
I was absent due to illness. The other 2 members of my group decided that basing our documentary on the subculture topic was getting rather difficult, and our interviewees were not reliable. We debated and discussed this issue and have now decided to change our documentary to an easier topic. We have discussed changing our documentary to about Why people wear the clothes they do? and what influences them to wearing their clothes, we will get proffesional opinions on the subject.
