Two weeks before the classes re-started, our teacher gave us a day (tuesday) in which we could miss school for finish filming.
At 10 am we met on Viveka's house and took all our memory cards that we had. There we put all our camera batteries and celphones to charge (so there is no problem), we searched the adresses of different tattoo shops for going and we had breakfast.
Then we took all our cameras, celphones, memory cards, tripod, money, etc. and walked again to the Bond Street.
There we interview 2 different tattooers and also one man that was tattooing her girlfriend's name in his arm.
Then we went to Mc Donald's to have lunch and then we continued filming another tattooer.
We recovered a lot of footish, including photographs.

For searching about the tattoos we went one saturday to the "Bond Street" in Capital and went to different tattoo shops. There, we talked to the people encharged of the shops and ask them for permition for filming them and do our documental about them and they were fine. They gave us their cards with all their information so we tried to contacted them by phone in the Film class but they didn't answer so we tried by mail and told them about what day we were going to go. When they answered our mail, we agreed to go the next thursday after school (before the winter holidays start) to a tattoo shop called Tattoo Ink because we considered the most serious place and people for work with them. Also it's a very good setting for filming as it has a lot of space for us to be confortable with all the materials without disturbing and it has a great background with a rocker style.

Sabrina went to Viveka's house in Capital and I went to mines in Capital too. At 5.30 pm we met in the Bond Street for starting to film. There I filmed the walls of the corridors of the Bond Street that has lots of graffities for make it the opening of the documentary, so then Sabrina edits those images in fast shots and adds rock music.
When we arrived to the shop, Viveka talked with the owners of the tattoo shop for being sure that everything is alright and answer any question or doubt they would have; Sabrina told them what they have to talk about and the theme of our documentary; and I, as the camera-woman, decided what is the best angle for filming, where the light reflects better, where the sound it's going to be clearer, etc.
Luckily, there was a customer that was doing a tattoo, so we took advantage of the situation and Viveka asked him and the tattooer if I could film them a little bit, and they agreed.
After filming 20 min, more or less, I realized the camera run out of memory, so we had to stop filming and go to our houses, downlaod the footish we had to our laptops for having much space for continuing filming an other day.

In my group we are three girls: Sabrina, Viveka and me, Giuliana. The first thing we did before planning our work was divide the rols: Sabrina is the editor and writer (as the has very good ideas for the script or plot of the documentary and she is very good with the computer, for editing), Viveka the researcher and talent (because she likes to talk with the people we are going to work with and search about where can what place can we go, for example) and me the camerawoman and producer (as I'm very talent with cameras). Then we decided what was going to be our documental about. First we thought about doing it about "Filochicos", that is an organization that helps the poor children of Quilmes, but we realized that it was going to be very complicated because we had to talk with each parents of the childrens. So we decided to change our theme. After discussing a long time, we finally decided of doing it about "Tattoos" because we thought it was a very interesting theme that would like to the young audience as it is tattoos are a way for people to express their thoughts and feelings in a very different and crazy way.
After deciding what the documentary was going to be about, be made  our storyboard with illustrations of how we imagine our shots are going to be and detailled descriptions of that shots (including angle-shot, light, sound, characters, setting, editing, etc.).
