Treatment for Documentary: Barber Shops

Documentary on American American Barber Shops: How Current Shops Came To Be:

The basic concept of this documentary is to have the audience witness and experience what it is like to run a barber shop.
   -Im going to document the day-to-day routine of running 3-4 barber shops in this area and give some like to what it took for the owners to open those barber shops.
-I want the viewer to see what it is like to be a customer at the barber shop
*I will interview a couple of and ask them what do they feel about the barber shop and the barbers.
*Ask customer:
-do they have a favorite barber
-how many timea month do they come to the barber shop
- howmuch do they think they spend a month/year on haircuts/or hair do's

Shooting:
I want to use freehands and a tripod.
* if i use freehands i can get in places that a tripod can not.
* i will use the tripod when i want to get a steady still hand from a wide distance.
* if i want to get a more personal shot and close up i will use freehands.
Angles
* i will start shooting from outside the barber shop and i will shoot myself standing in front of and giving a little introduction about the barber shop.
* while i am giving an introduction about the barber shops i will also let the viewers know what i will be doing(interviewing) in the barber shop.
Lighting
* i wont be using any prop lights because i want to get the nature lighting in the shops
* i will also use the nature lighting of the sun
* i might use one key light for the subject faces
Editing
* i wont do much editing
* maybe ill do a montage
* i may use simple effects

I will keep it simple its just a 2 minutes documentary
