Editing process

Editing !!!

After filming for three days in various parts of around the Laines we started editing as a group to ensemble all of our clips together through Adobe premier. We didn't find it that hard to edit as we more or less had the same vision of what we wanted everything to look like , I'd say we worked cohesively !! However not everyone in our group could attend all the time which made things frustrating, putting that aside we worked , tweaked and manipulated our clips until it resembled our vision.

Shot List

Camera shot list !

We know that there are three shot types we NEED to include for our documentary modes to be delivered properly ...... 

LONG SHOTS !

MID SHOTS !

CLOSE UP'S !

CUT AWAYS !

Long shots allow a lot of the frame to display buildings as well as people which is important if we want to include an establishing shot of  'The Laines' 

Mid shots are vital for our interviews , this way our audience will still get to see their style yet still get to see the flurry or lack of activity behind them.

Close up's are used to show an up, close and personal profile of an item or person , we were thinking of using this to highlight or give meaning to something the narrator has state.

Cut aways are essential to keep the audiences interests alive , if we just showed the full interview clip without any cut away of shots of people shopping or fashion items then the documentary would drag and lose peoples interest.

Main Speaker - Anton Spreckley

                                                           


We managed to get an interview with the owner of the vintage store 'Rob the Dog' Anton Spreckley, as a group we came to the conclusion that our documentary needed a 'voice of authority' that would tie and link everything in our documentary together. Soon after we met him we got to know his animated character and his openly opinionated personality and thought that he would be perfect for what we wanted to show or emphasise.

Initial questions we thought of before hand 

Narrative & Themes

After watching the mini documentary 'Pockets' my group and I started thinking about our themes and we came up these three...

1. Individuality 
2. Fashion
3. Vintage 

The angle we chose our documentary to head towards was 'The Laines' and how it enables certain individuals to express their true self through clothes. In my opinion the high street shops are very main stream and the clothes are mass produced thus meaning there's a high probability that more than one person will have the same item. The Laines on the other hand have 'one of a kind' pieces from different time periods that might have 'gone out of fashion'. The fact that the Laines gives people the chance to purchase and re-event these timeless pieces I believe is slightly more interesting than doing something 'commercial'.

Narrative - We want our narrative to explore the quirky fashion sense of a few fashion conscious people in Brighton.
