Production Log – Entry 15
Transcript of second interview with Naomi Ward
Pip: OK, recording. So, your dad told me that he found out Andie was bullying another girl in your year. Cyber-bulling. He thought there was some online video involved. Do you know anything about this?
NaomiYeah, like I said, I thought Andie was trouble.
: Pip: Can you tell me more about it?
NaomiThere was a girl in our year, called Natalie da Silva, and she was pretty and blonde :too. They looked quite similar actually. And I guess Andie felt threatened by her because ever since the start of our final year Andie started spreading rumours about her and finding ways to humiliate her.
Pip: If Sal and Andie didn’t start seeing each other until that December, how did you know all this?
NaomiI was friends with Nat. We had biology together. : Pip: Oh. And what kind of rumours was Andie starting?
NaomiThe kind of disgusting things only a teenage girl could think up. Things like her :family was incestuous, that Nat watched people undress in the changing rooms and touched herself. Those kinds of things.
Pip: And you think Andie did this because Nat was pretty and she felt threatened by that?
NaomiI actually think that was the extent of her thought process. Andie wanted to be the :girl in the year that all the boys wanted. Nat was competition so Andie had to take her down.
Pip: So did you know about this video at the time?
NaomiYeah, it got shared all over social media. I think it wasn’t taken down until a few days :later when someone reported it as inappropriate content.
Pip: When was this?
NaomiIt was during the Easter holidays. Thank god it wasn’t during the school term; that
:would have been even worse for Nat.
Pip: OK, so what was it?
