Construction Post 4: Reflections on Edit Week 1

As we had decided to take on a different approach in our main shoot, due to the advice of our teachers and target audience group, by taking lots more spontaneous, improvised shots, we ended up with a lot of footage. So one of the biggest tasks in edit week 1 was being selective about the shots we wanted to include in our sequence. I felt that we worked really well as a group in this part of the process as we made decisive, collective decisions about which shots we wanted to include. The whole edit process ran very smoothly and by working and sticking strictly to our edit schedule we managed to finish the edit easily in the time we allocated for it.
