Documentaries 101 (Workshop #1) - A/V Room, Tuesday Morning
Jay and Silent Bob don't look slightly nervous at being in the school without having broken in, or without a giant ball or Mountie on their tail. Nope. Not at all.
Which is why Jay isn't pacing the classroom, fidgeting like mad. Then again, that might also be because he had a coffee date set for after the workshop. The fidgeting halted when he realised that the entirety of their 'class' was cute little girls. That was when the leer started in, focused on the one he didn't know.
"Yo, tubby, get yourself out here," he called, and Silent Bob popped up from behind a sound board, a bunch of wires in his hand. He popped back down, possibly to rewire things, before emerging, brushing off his hands.
"Alright. I'm Jay and this is Silent Bob."
Bob waved.
"And we've gotta teach you some sh - stuff about documentaries or some sh - thing." He jerked his thumb over his shoulder. "It was tubby's idea. So . . ." Silent Bob handed him a notebook. "You really put a lot of effort into this, didn't you?" Jay shook his head and looked down. "Shit. It's like a lesson plan. And today, uh, Bob is going to show you how to use your cameras." He kept reading. It took a moment. Bob pointed at a sentence scribbled near the top and Jay read it aloud. "Over the next few weeks, we will be showing you how to plan, film, edit, and present a documentary." Jay turned to Bob. "Honestly, tubby, you need to get a life."
Silent Bob rolled his eyes before heading over to a shelf and handing out a camcorder to each student. He proceeded to demonstrate how they worked and how to use the various functions. Despite the fact that he didn't speak the entire time, plus some diagrams, the explanation was easy to understand and very thorough.
Once finished, he nudged Jay and pointed to the next line of the script.
"Right." Jay looked down and continued to read. "So, you can use this camcorders outside of class. Get used to using them this week and start thinking about a topic for your documentary. Next week will be topic selection and then we'll start talking about interviews and research." Jay looked up at Bob. "Research, tubby? Like books and shit?" He shook his head. "Fu - forget that."
Silent Bob just sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose.
[[OOC: Jay's trying to cut back on the language, but it's still going to be around. I'll keep it out of the main comms, but the comments might get a little raunchy. If you're really offended by this, ping me and we'll talk. Thanks.]]
