This week we have been editing the documentary. When putting our footage together, one thing that stood out was that the transcripts for the interview needed to be cut up and mixed so that it wouldn't be boring to watch. The interview with Jo was a total of nine minutes long which we cannot use all of as the documentary cannot be longer than 10 minutes. We have been cutting it up so that we have highlighted to most important points to include. Whilst editing, we have been incorporating the action shots that we took yesterday. We used one of the 7D cameras which produced footage with much better colouring. Our previous action shots came out very yellow in colour which was quite difficult to resolve in the editing process. After looking at the new footage today, the colour and quality is much better which will benefit the look of the piece. We wanted the location to look very visually exciting to appeal to audiences as much as possible. We have also decided to change our approach with editing. in order to put the narrative into perspective, we have been writing a draft script for the commentary. This will give us an outline to follow when cutting the clips together so we know what will be said in between the interviews. In terms of working as a group, I would say that we have communicated effectively, talking in a group chat when we're not at the studios to assign jobs for everyone in the mean time. During the editing process, we already had an idea of what the storyline would be which meant that we had similar ideas. However, when it came to choosing the placement of clips, we had different opinions which we discussed and came to creative decisions that we were all happy with. In terms of time, I would say that we are on schedule to finish the documentary with Darren coming in next tuesday to record the commentary so we can edit this onto the images before next friday.
