We have finally met our goals of the project.
Everyone took their role seriously and have done their job very well I think.
Even though I was an editor, I could see what was required from the other roles and with all the cooperation a project was finely made.
It was first time for me to work on [...]

After the rough cut screening with Daniel and Anne I just had adjusted sound levels and put in the names introducing the people, and the logo.
It still needs lot more adjustments with the picture/ colours/brightness and so on.
This secound rough cut version will be handed on to Lydia which she’ll bring to Russell’s and view with them.
meanwhile I’m waiting [...]

today we’ve just viewed our rough cut with daniel.
I have made myself some notes to fix. things like the level of the sound or the edit between the shots.
The music seemed to be bit off track as we heard so it will be out and I’ll try two different ways to connect the opening sequence [...]

editing tips.

Basically, the editing principles of fiction and documentary are the same. However, there are more possibilities when editing a documentary, as you are not bound by causality in the same way and thus do not need to tell your story in a certain way, which gives you a high degree of freedom; you should therefore [...]

In his article “The Voice of Documentary,” Bill Nichols writes:
Documentary displays a tension arising from the attempt to make statements about life that are quite general, while necessarily using sounds and images that bear the inescapable trace of their particular historical origin. These sounds and images come to function as signs; they bear meaning, though [...]

Today, by talking with David Carlin, He recommended a great to way to edit doco.
which is done by paper edit.
we have to log and write everything down onto a piece of paper. including the trascript of every scene. so we know exactly what was being said and what was being done.
In this way it will [...]
document making…

There’re a lot of things that I’ve learnt by making the documentary from the scratch.

and we had to go [...]

We have captured most of the footage. and by viewing it with Lydia today, we have decided extra footages that we’ll need to shoot again.
Some pictures aren’t as good ( over exposed at the back so the main figure is quite dark, or the sound was recorded at too high level so the sound is [...]
