We filmed the interview with Alvaro in Samantha's studio at her house and we borrowed camera equipment at a camera store to make sure we get the best quality possible. The interview went very smooth, and we had a little bit of trouble mic'ing Alvaro up and getting the sound connected as it wasn't working on one of the cameras, but eventually we got it to work. Overall the responses that Alvaro gave us was very well and descriptive which helped to develop context within our documentary. This portion took around 1 hour and then after we went into the garage to film B-roll of Alvaro actually Dj'ing.
The set up took around 30 minutes to move everything such as the lights, dj board, cameras etc to the garage. The footage we got came out amazing and we were capturing a bunch of different angles and incorporating focus pulls to add depth within this piece. This was my favorite part of the project as I was enjoying the music and capturing high quality footage at the same time. The lights really helped to make it seem like we weren't in a garage as the garage lights were off and we turned on the colorful lights to make it seem like if it was a party.

The entire filming process on this day took about 3-4 hours as we wanted to make sure we captured the best footage possible. We all had a great time making this piece and learning about the dj culture in Miami was also very informative and helped me to understand what its really like and how hard they work when nobody is watching.
