Editing Week 5: 16th - 22nd April 2012

This week I worked towards completing my fine edit. I re-watched the film, making sure all the cuts are clear and in the right place so there were no overlaps in sound.

Second Interview: Support Worker & Estate Agent


I was already happy with my first interview so focused this week on editing the second interview to a standard I was happy with. I had a much more limited selection of footage for this interview which made things slightly more difficult. I decided to use clips from the first interview sequence throughout this part to make the link between the questions being asked more crudely obvious. Initially Lewis's character is happy to divulge his personal information, such as previous address and national insurance number, compared to the first interview where he refuses to answer any of these questions. I wanted to get a comparison between his responses so this is why I used the previous footage here.

Next Week


I have managed to finish my fine edit and have got the visual side of the film up to a standard I am happy with. My film is now 8 minutes 30 in total which I think is an appropriate length - if it went on any longer, the continual switching in roles may loose the audience's attention. Next week I will complete my sound edit. I have asked Patrycja for a tutorial to get her advice on how best to approach the sound. I will also show her my completed visual edit and get her feedback on this too.
