Possible questions, stories and situations.

Now that we have our subject matter pinned down, we wanted to explore the types of stories and situations we could show in our documentary; these are listed below:

  • Talk about the stereotypes (Ie. when people hear 'knitting' they think of old women usually).
  • A beginner starting out.
  • How it is a generational thing (Ie. passing it onto a child or grandchild).
  • End results of knitting.
We knew that we wouldn't be able to have sit down interviews on screen with the owners of the shops (if we decide to visit the shops) because we aren't allowed to use that element of documentary film making; we did however just want to have a few questions written out to ask to find out if anyone had an interesting story or experience while they have been knitting and/or while working in a wool shop. These questions are listed below:

  • When did you start knitting?
  • How do you think the big businesses have taken over small independent shops?
  • What is your customer range like? Older people, younger or a bit of both?
  • Do you think the world of knitting is changing and attracting young people?
