Yay! Yay! Yay!

I AM SO EXCITED RIGHT NOW!!! Last night we made a huge step for our doc. We went to Ibiza last night (a gay club downtown) and three people agreed to an interview! These people are awesome! It was so much fun.

The Interviewees:

1.) Erica: She wants to have a sex change. She does drag at Ibiza and se said we could tape one of her shows!! Erica is so sweet and pretty and said she will answer ANY question. She is very open. She gave us her myspace page and the website of the photographer of Ibiza that will be a great source for us.
2.) Terra: She is more manly, lots and lots of makeup. She hosts the drag shows every week and also said we could tape one of her shows. She seems like a Diva! She agreed to an interview without talking to us much and only seemed really interested in us when we were talking to Erica.
3.) This all happened because of Jimmy, a bartender at Ibiza who was checking ids at the front. He introduced us to Erica and Terra and gave us like four other contacts! He is a part of the pride group and they are hosting two events that he said we coulod film. One is the white party for the opening night and the other is drag duets. He also knows some history of whats going on in Wilmington, and was very friendly and helped us a great deal and has seen a lot and he said we could interview him.

Like Chris mentioned last night, meeting these people makes me want to research more and more so we ask the right questions. Also, it is interesting that our film is taking its own form. So far, it is much less about the intersexed and much more about transgendered people and the consturct of gender, and I think thats okay, these people have stories to tell and I'm excited to hear them.
