Spending time together with people in a way that allows for informal ways of getting to know each other, provides for much better circumstances to start building relationships than the conditions provided by more conventional research methods like conducting interviews. Making these videos together with people from the community allowed us to also talk about things that were not directly related to the research, or even the films that we were shooting.
These activities were often preceded with drinking a cup of coffee, or invitations to come over after after the shooting was done. Especially Kathy and Janet, as women more closely to my age, became people I started to spend casual time with for the remained of my visit. Danny Aaluk, who had been drawing the art for the "Voices of Thunder" documentary, likewise, became a person I ended up spending a lot more time with outside of the research requirements.
