Editing - day 4

Today we started to edit the interview with Andrew Will (guitar learner). We cut out all of the questions and began to change the order of his answers so that the dialogue had more of a natural flow to it and made more sense.
We also changed the order of the vox pops.

Editing - day 3

I was unable to attend today's lesson so so again I was unable to participate. However during my absence Amy and Lewis continued to edit the documentary.

Filming the Opening Titles

Today we began to film our opening titles. However we had a few setbacks as the room we planned to use was unavailable, so we had to find a new location. This also meant that we didn't have the background and lighting that we originally planed on having. 

The rest of the lesson was spent attempting to do the opening titles, which is a stop-motion. However once we had gotten the hand of how this was supposed to be done to get the best result once editing together, we were out of time, so we will have to retake this when we next have all of the props together.

Editing - day 2

Today we continued to edit as a group. By the end of the lesson the voxpops were edited into a montage and the first interview was started to come together so that it flowed. Some cutaways were added but the full interview is not yet complete.

Editing - catching up

As I missed the start of the editing process, today I stayed behind after college to watch what had been done so far so that I knew where we were up to, and to continue to edit parts of the Frailers interview. The microphone didn't pick much of this interview, meaning the sound was very quiet, so I went into the audio settings and tried to fix it. The audio is now better but still much quieter than he other interviews, so we may not be able to include this interview in the documentary.
Unfortunately I couldn't stay for too long and was unable to edit much overall.

Editing - day 1

Today Amy and Lewis began to edit the documentary. They edited together the voxpops and began to cut out the questions from the interview with Frank Frailer (shop owner). Unfortunately I was absent on this day and was unable to be involved.

Edit Decision List

Callum Meredith

Despite originally agreeing to be filmed, Callum Meredith (guitar collector) has not replied to us in order to arrange a date/time/location for filming. We have tried many times to contact him but have had no response. We now plan to continue making the documentary without his interview and will be replacing it with an interview with Chris Washby, which we filmed as a filler just in case we needed extra footage.
