The maps would provide an important visual aspect, presenting statistics and research that we have gathered in a clear, straight forward, and creative way, easy for all to understand. I think they could be a way to tie the other sections together, by having "map segments" dispersed through the documentary, possibly summarizing or tying together different aspects of the film.
Possibilities:
- survey of local natural resources
- local farms
- local edible plants/wildlife
- survey of where people actually obtain their food
- grocery stores
- corner stores
- farmers markets
- soup kitchens/charity
- eat out
- other- grow their own, scavenging, dumpster diving
- (interview/survey actual residents, door-to-door?)
- the places in-between
- where do the grocery stores get their products from?
- where do the corner stores get their products from?
- warehouses, processing plants,packaging plants- how many places does the food go through before it reaches the grocery stores?
- local processing/packaging plants- where do they ship to?
- modes of transportation, miles traveled, gas costs
- presentation possibilities
- interactive maps showing the food's travels
- animation, claymation, diagrams, actual maps
- possibly clips of interviews from surveys- where people get their food
- clips of myself trying to obtain the information (or audio clips)- grocery stores, warehouses, manufacturing plants.
- trying to get interviews with people that work there
- in the past
- how did people living in Baltimore obtain their food?
- was it more local?
- maybe try to interview older people about their food experiences growing up.
- how the city has changed- inner harbor, industry, where the food comes and goes from.
- comparison interactive maps- then and now and possibly future options
- possible project- following a food truck with a car and filming
