Journal #3

We have continued working on ideas for the interview, questions for CPO, ideas for what we could post on their instagram page. We have taken a lot of time looking through the stories of the prisoners, which unfortunately don’t have much information, only where they were born and their parents (if possible) then what they did, how long they were in prison for, and cause of death. While we know there wasn’t going to be much depth into the stories, we were surprised that there wasn’t the reason for incarceration in the short biographies. That seems to be the most interesting part of these stories that were left out.  

Journal #4

After talking with Ellie from CPO, we have started to work on posters and ideas for where they should go around Concord. What businesses we could contact, where in town they could go, like Dunkin’ and Starbucks, monument square and all around town. We also talked about our target audience. We realize that most people our age wouldn’t be interested at all, and that it’s mainly going to be older people that are interested in these stories of the prisoners.
