Edición

Summary of these two weeks :

Editing is always a pain in the butt. The problem I had with my group mates and the clips were that majority ideas and raw footages weren't in my mind. That's because I haven't been attending our shoots (which again, I really regret), and we had so much problems coordinating with each other.
Our designated editors were Ezra and me; as I wanted a taste of the editing myself, I thought I could make up for the lost time I had at the shoots; and boy that was a bad move. Having to have no prior knowledge of those clips shot, it was difficult for me to come up with a rough storyline.

That's when Goi came to the rescue. Weeks back, Christine made a suggestion to have a full transcript of our footages (which I thought was unnecessary at that time, but obviously proved useful), and she made everyone come up with a rough hard copy storyline. Despite that, it was quite difficult getting our point of views and ideas at the same channel, as we all had our own interpretation of the documentary. It was really difficult getting everyone's agreement as our group weren't at full force (as its submission week right now), hence missing members all the time.

We then decided to pick important parts off the transcript and began compiling those scenes/stories. I realised that we had wasted a lot of our time by just discussing and not actually doing something. We got on the computer and started compiling whatever we think was important. Now lets just see how long the sequence will end up to...
