Knowing that our deadline is next week Paloma and I have spent every spare moment in Com 5, trying to finish our editing. We have definitely begun to develop our own styles of editing and lucky for us we usually agree on decisions that have to be made. It's at this point that I am really glad that I chose to work with some I get on well with or this could be a very difficult time.
The film is really taking shape now and I'm really happy with what we have got. I'm very conscious of keeping it interesting and not just having people talking at the camera. We both take turns at handling the mouse but Paloma prefers to have the controls and I like to sit back a little as that helps me to look at the film objectively and develop my ideas more.
We have tried to kind of section the ideas we are putting forward while also keeping a flow throughout the narrative. Another issue we face is not putting too much of Scotty in. He has so many ideas which line up exactly with our own that it is easy to over use him, which would make it a very boring documentary.
