Process: Introduction

For those of you who have no idea what this blog is about, I suppose this post could serve as a form of introduction.

About the blog:

The purpose of this blog is to provide information on the filming process of a documentary about Purdue League of Legends (LOL) club's community and their characteristics that differentiate them from other clubs and societies. There will be a post by each member of the group weekly regarding the filming process so stay tuned!

As this blog is made for an educational purpose (English class assignment), there will also be a post by each member of the group weekly regarding previous academic materials studied and how it relates to the filming process or documentary itself.

About the documentary:

The LOL club meets on weekends to get together and play which is when we will be going to interview and film them. Footage will be taken using two separate cameras and will be edited using iMovie. There will also be some game play footage that can be recorded directly from the game through a separate client.

The documentary hopes to capture and highlight certain things that make the LOL club unique. One of the factors has already been provided by Elliot who states that the language they use is different in context than other communities. Other factors will be explored further as we progress through the filming process.

Lastly, for those who don't know what LOL is, LOL "is a multiplayer online battle arena video game developed and published by Riot Games for Microsoft word"  ─ taken from Wikipedia.
