Laura wanted to be the editor for this project as this is something she really enjoys doing. Therefore, she has taken the lead role in this process. However, we have been editing primarily in the studios so we can all edit as a group and come to some collaborative decisions. We have been editing the introductions for the people we interviewed so that they are concise enough to include. In terms of the interviews themselves, technically the sound has been clear and easy to work with, particularly the interview with Alex. The use of self contained answers has made it quite easy to cut as each answer is seperate, allowing us to move sections of it around if need be. We originally intended to make the Tesco scheme section a separate package but after looking more into the brief, we needed to combine this with the Demelza section to make one package. We had a rough cut viewing with Helen today so she could see what stage we were at and to give us some constructive advice for improvements. She told us to cut down all of the interviews to fit in into one 2 1/2 minute package piece. She also said to limit the use of some of the GV's as a member of the crew filmed them hand held making them shaky and obvious in the edit. She liked the live piece but suggested we frame it a little better, making there less head room at the top, as well as adding a few more GV's to make it a little more dynamic. In reflection, we could've got a few more shots for our opening sequences to ensure that we cover every area from head to toe. I think that with a few tweaks here once we've cut each section down and added in the studio footage, it will come together as an episode.
