Editing
As our documentary comes to an end, so much editing has been going on. We took footage from our on street interviews and our interview with Kelley Green and took it from 17 minutes to about 14 minutes. We were getting closer to were we want to be and then we remembered, we still had to add the footage from Kent’s interivew. So as we added Kent’s footage, the length then jumped from 14 minutes to 29 minutes! Yikes! So as we continued editing, we decided as a group to focus on the main points created for the documentary. So we took 5 essential questions and narrowed it down to 3. That then took our time from 17 minutes to 6 minutes! We were really excited. As we got closer we took out more awkward pauses and then narrowed it by a few seconds. For your knowledge, the segment has to be 5 minutes and at most 5 and a half minutes. We then decided one complete segment goes better with another groups segments, so we eliminated that segment as well. At last we had had enough footage with plenty of time for a introduction, narration in between segments, and conclusion to wrap up our segment.
