Documentary: Sequencing workshop

Today in our sequencing workshop we filmed sequences that will be used to hide the edits from the video that was created in our previous interview workshop edit. We made sure to follow along the shot list that was created in order to get all the relevant shots needed for the interview.

For this task, I was the subject again and I was briefed then given instructions on what I would need to be doing. 

Shot List 

What I learnt From this was the important for the subject to be briefed before hand. Things will go a lot smoother once everyone knows what to do and when you know what you want to film, so then organisation also comes into play here as you need to plan out what it is you're going to film beforehand. 

After filming, we sat down and edited it together. Our main aim was to hide the edits and to  make a seamless sequence with images to follow the narration and subjects speech. I personally felt that we did a good job. The feedback that we got was positive but there were a few things that could've been touched up on. 

- Noddies of the interviewer could also be used to fill in the gaps.

This is something that I will remember for the future as I always thought that you didn't need them at all.

- Introduce the narrator if they are unknown and make sure they don't say "I" if they haven't been introduced. This goes especially for the narration too.

Overall I am happy with the outcome and I believe we will be able to produce a good documentary with necessary GV's to match the speech.
