Editing

For the Dinner Ladies interview, we had to zoom in to improve the mise en scene. Also, this was to improve the framing, as there was a woman who was slightly shown in the corner of the screen, so the zooming in hid her.

To erase any unnecessary answers, we used the razor tool. This was vital, as our footage took up almost 12 minutes, so we had to cut down a lot of footage. To pick the most important parts of the interviews, we used the Set In Point and Set Out Point tools.

I think the hardest challenge was cutting down the information, as we had to take out over half the footage and it was hard trying to think what was important and what wasn't as important. Once we had cut the documentary down to 5 minutes, we had to put th cut aways and music bed in, which I thought went smoothly, as we just had to follow the Edit Decision List.

We had to re-film the Milk Depot, as the man's microphone wasn't switched on. It was a good thing this happened, as it was the first interview we done, so it made us more aware of the set up for the next interviews. We had to re-film the girl who didn't like milk, again, as the mise en scene wasn't good, as the pictures of milk stopped half way throught the framing.
