Editing Report - 23 Dec 2008

Attendance: Max, Jason, Aim
Guest: Fazilah

The day's editing session was all about doing the voice-over with Fazilah. We did the voice over with her at about 12pm-2pm or so as we did many takes. After doing her voice-over, we then went to sharpen our video. We added the names and position of the people we interviewed as well as the clients and parents. But when we did that with the clients, we realized that we could not do for all because some were too short to put. The other thing was, we were then contemplating: "to put or not to put" as we know we had to have formality. We then decided not to put the names for all the clients, but add for the important people. We were also able to add a bar to the names, so now all names can be seen.

We then got people to watch our video. We then had mixed reactions.

Some liked the music, some did not really like it, they said that most of the shots were good. They also said to add some more of the video clients in the video, they also said to have some cut-aways during the interviews, but then again, it depends on what the interviewees say. They also said the beginning was a little too long. Solution for us a group, when first looked; To use the same shots from the SPONSOR VIDEO. The voice-over was not added yet. Which, according to Jason, I was a little too rushed to get people to watch the video because there was no voice-over yet and it does not have the impact we want yet. But he said that with the people's comments, it was a good thing, because he now knows what to do.

The video that they looked at were the volunteer video. Most of our participants were other G302 video teams.

Clients' age

Pheobe - 7

David - 11

Aaron - 10

Jun Wei - 12

Dylan - 14

Just in-case we need to put back the clients info in the video again.

We would be finishing up on the 26 of Dec. But then again may make minor changes on the 29th with the comments from Serene.
