How is this film being made?
Intervwing Lucy herself, showing clips of historical footage, and including commentary from sportscasters and historians will provide a rich, multidimensional perspective on her life and career.
I really like the production quality.
What they have availiable to them and what are the limitations these films are experiencing
I can imagine that since it took place a while ago, when cameras and technology weren’t as prominent as they are today, the lack of resources could have affected the clarity and quality of archival footage. Additionally, obtaining rights to certain clips or securing interviews with individuals from that era may pose further challenges.
What did they overcome to get that creative value and aesthetic value
Music is great camera angles provides a great view and atmosphere, enhancing the overall experience of the films. Additionally, the editing techniques and sound design contribute significantly to crafting a compelling narrative.
