The story and struggle of the underrated, under-appreciated gaming community at Moravian Academy. Then show my personal journey from beginner to ranked Gamer with Moravian Academy Team, NEW KINGS (name of team). (As mentored by the following)
Key people:

(Shooting)
1)Begin with a concept of how gaming has grown legitimized over the years. (Call 1million USD, League of Legends 5million USD, FIFA 400,000 etc)
2)Give brief summary of current situation (professional gamers etc)
3)Interview Moravian gamers
4)Show myself playing and self interview to explain how I feel
5)Show that gaming is universal and the appeal should be encouraged as it brings people together.
Shot ideas:
Interviews: Done in classrooms or at houses. Preferably with gaming equipment and computers. (remember to recording lots of "clacking" of keyboards and "clicking" of mice. Zoom in on specialized gaming computers and equipment.
Self Interviews: in computer room, playing game.
-Get shots of me playing and laughing with others.
-Talk about statistics and rankings. About teams and teammates. (Maybe get some footage of me playing with New Kings, The Moravian Academy gaming team)
-Periodic updates on gaming ability.
-possibly get some actual in game footage with screen capture.
School: show kids playing games in the library. Also, discussing strategies, statistics, concepts, tournaments and upcoming games.
(Picture montage/slide show for explaining gaming history. )
