Transcribing tips and instructions
Hi guys, here is some very interesting tips on how to do transcripts for interviews.
Maxtc:)
Instructions: Select a short portion of a tape to transcribe in the text box below, or on notebook paper. Before starting, write the number on the tape counter at the beginning point. Transcribe until you fill all the lines in the text box. When you have finished filling up the text box, write the ending number on the tape counter. Here are some points to remember:
— Sometimes sentences aren't complete. That's okay. Just write what you hear. When a sentence is not complete, put a dash at the end (-).
— To add your own comment or explain something that the interviewee didn't fully say, put brackets [ ] around your words. For example, "I learned how to do it [to crochet] when I was nine years old."
— Don't try to make your transcription sound better by adding your own words or correcting grammar.
— Use standard spelling and don't try to write in dialect or "how it sounds." In other words, write "that" instead of "dat," even if "dat" is what you hear.
— Sometimes it's not easy to see where one sentence ends and another begins. Just write it the best way you can. The main idea is that the transcript is accurate and comes close to how the speaker really sounds.
— If you can't hear the words, leave a blank and come back to it later or have someone else listen to the tape. If you still can't figure it out, use ellipses . . . three spaced dots . . .to represent something left out.
— If you want to emphasize a word, use italics.
Here's a sample transcript:
Anna Hernandez: Aunt Maria, well, I was wondering what kinds of vegetables you use in your chicken soup?
Maria Hernandez: I like to use celery, parsnips and carrots mostly, but I always use, see, like these here. I always use carrots. If we have potatoes, of course I throw those in. [Tastes the soup].
AH: How do you cut up the vege-
MH: --Carrots-I always put carrots in, you know, in thick slices, but it doesn't much matter how I do the potatoes. No special way, really.
You'll find that transcribing a tape is an art in itself. No two people will transcribe the same tape the same way.

Transcribe until you fill all the lines in the text box. When you have finished filling up the text box, write the ending number on the tape counter. Here are some points to remember:
- Write down each word you hear. Stop the tape when needed, rewind occasionally and listen to the same section as you read along, making sure you wrote the words in the correct order. You may need to do this several times. If you can't understand the words, ask another person to listen or simply leave a blank space.
- Each time a new speaker talks, use their full name and then initials so readers can follow along. Maria Hernandez would be MH, etc.
- People talk much differently than they write. They begin new sentences without finishing the old one. They may add a lot of extra words (called "crutch words") such as "you know" and "yeah." If you think the words are crutch words and you want to leave these out of your transcript, say so at the beginning. "I removed crutch words and false starts from this transcript." Also say whether you are including all the "uhs" and "ums" and "ahs."
— Sometimes sentences aren't complete. That's okay. Just write what you hear. When a sentence is not complete, put a dash at the end (-).

Minutes of Meeting (19 Nov 2008) 40th Post
Present: Max, Aim, Jason and Serene (Supervisor)
Absent: Siti Munira
Time: 3pm - 4.15pm
Note: Meeting at 1pm was to prepare materials for 3pm meeting
1) We went through with Seene on what we have filmed and also on the technical difficulties on the next step after filming - the capturing (Digitization) of the videos as well as the solution to how we solved our problem on that. We were not able to get the materials ready as most of them were supposed to be the digitized videos. But we were have technical difficulties capturing them. Seen some shots of the digititization. Very happy with them. Serene also said that some of the shots could actually be improved.
2) This meeting was to update her before going to the post-production stage. With that being said Serene gave us some tips on editing. These tips include, logging down our shots, labeling our tapes/takes. She also tasked us to transcribed our interviews so that we know what the interview was about in detail and when it comes to editing it, we would know where to cut and at which point. Transcribing should be done over the weekend. During team discussion, it was suggested that we digitized all tapes first before end of week so that all can watch the interviews via laptops.
3) After Serene left, team went through the VISTA booking system. booked VISTA Lab B at 9.30am-9.30pm on next Wednesday (26 Nov 2008)
4) All to be digitized by next Tuesday (25 Nov 2008), first digitized tape to be out by Friday. All Transcriptions to be done over the weekend.

Production Report for the Day 4 and reschduled day 5
We continued to film for Day 4 and Day 5, 12 and 15 November respectivly.
This past week has been a great filming week. Crew members reported on time, Siti was ill to join us. This week was to record interviews and finish up the filming of the storyboard.
For Wednesday, we focused alot on the interviews and we got to do a shot of the Point of View (POV) of the rider. Jason had the chance to ride on Mistof. The horse that he got charmed by. It was a good experience for him. We also interviewed Sally Drumond and Rosemary and Eugene Lim. All of it was done in the morning. We then got the chance to interview one of the volunteers when i was quite young and also one of the parents of the RDA. That one was done the very late afternoons as the volunteers were on a course during that day. Though the wait was long, it was worth the parents' repsonse during the interview. A was a good day. For the whole week, Jason and Aim switch places. Jas did the sound and Aim did the framing. Good combo, more efficient.
We had another great day on Saturday. Crew again was on time. Siti could not make it in the morning, but came at 2.40pm.
Jason then did the job of drawing on the wall. He also did the panning work for the reflection walk scene. All volunteers and parents, riders were all very co-operative with us. Really long, but so worth it. They were also very understanding and patient with us. We also interviewed the volunteers and instructors as well. The volunteers for the morning were in a little rush. But they accomadated well. The after crowd were really nice to work with as they would like to thank the RDA's help in their child's progress.
The concern for this week: Nothing on production side, just concern from the parent. He just does not want his kid to be shown in any form nagative. Something that I can understand. Explained to him our objectives and also understood his concern. So Jason helped us to explain to the father about the storyboard.
Another challenge that we face now is the editing of the interviews....which is the next face.

Production Report Day 3 (8 Nov 2008)
We were to meet for breakfast at 7.30am at Toa Payoh, But Aim only turned up at 8am at the place, had already eaten breakfast. Siti did not come for shooting as she had no money to make it. Jason met us at RDA at 9.15 am. We were scheduled to meet at RDA at 8.15am.
We missed out an opportunity to shoot a set up of the arena and horse tacking. But we were given the chance to do it again as one of the riders did not come during the first session. We were able to shoot the horse running around and rolling about in the ground.
We were not able to do any interviews as we went out of tape. Bring extra tapes for next session. Also shot scenes with Pheobe.
On Monday when we had our meeting with Serene, we found out that we need to some re-shoots. These re-shoots would be interviews with the students and Jasamine. Optional re-shoots would be with Pheobe. We would also be continuing shooting her on Saturday. The crew can now go into the arena to shoot.
Shoots to be continued on would be shoots in the arena (set up of it) and continuation of Pheobe and clients' testimonials and local volunteers.
Be on time for the next few shoots guys! We also need full force!

Reflections for Days 2 and 3 of shooting at RDA
We had 2 more shooting sessions last Saturday and Wednesday.
Day 2:
It was raining quite heavily, so we filmed the grooming sessions instead, which was a rare opportunity. Later on, we took more shots of the riding sessions. We also got to interview one of the staff at RDA.
Day 3:
The star rider and horse were going to be in the riding sessions, so we took some shots. We also managed to get some shots of the horses roaming around the fields, and the dressing-up of a horse as well. We took some shots for the introduction part of the video, but we had to do the interviews with the parents during the next session, as we ran out of tape.
In all, we had gotten most of our footage. We just need to get one more tape to shoot the rest of the stuff. And Jason has to make a habit of being punctual; we almost lost a lot of our footage. Luckily the people at RDA were co-operative enough to help us get our required shots.

Production Report for Day 2 of Filming - 5th Nov 2008
Today's shoot was a little rush at first because we had to go to RP to get the equipments. As I sent the equipments 1 day too late on Friday. Forgot about WORKING DAYs Silly me. So we went to pick up our equipments and loaned it up to Monday as we also have filming on Saturday. We arrived at RDA at around 10am. Session was already going on at that time. Lighting was getting dark. So Richard, the session co-ordinator switched on the light for us in the arena. Second session did not start until 10.30am or so.
Due the set up of the arena. I felt that it was not so safe for the crew to go into the arena.
Working with this session...we interviewed Susan K (Staff instructor) and Jennie (Volunteer Instructor). Interview went very well. They talked about the rewards of volunteering, the progress that one can make volunteering in the RDA as well as a lot of issues that can be part of the sponsorship video as well. Example of what they said were things that people can do for the RDA that is not physical. So some of them would be to be involved in other RDA events and what is the benefit of joining RDA as a sponsor. These questions were planned to be possed for next week.
The shots that were took: Beneficery mounting horse via ramp. Shots of horses trotting and the horse riding session.
Report on equipment, according to Jason, he says that tripod was a little jerky and panning could not be smooth.
The clients shot today were from MINDS. The staff from MINDS that were from there told us that 2 of them were not given permission to be filmed and therefore would need to be removed from our film. this is also another concern to discuss with Serene soon.
Shot to be filmed: the story, reflection walk, horse galloping and having fun. Interview with board members and coach would be on the week of the 10th-15th of November as they would be available by then.
What could be improved on in today's shot would be time managment and better preparation for shoots.
We would continue filming on the 8th of November and report at 8.15am at RDA to prepare. We would also be having breakfast at a Mac at 7.25am also discuss about our shot as well.

Last Saturday's Filming: Thoughts
The trip to RDA to do our team's 1st filming session was fun, but really troublesome at 1st. I had to go to Jason's home area at Sembawang to pick up all the equipment, which were really heavy. And it was raining as well.
So the RDA conducted grooming sessions instead of the usual riding sessions, due to the rain which was actually a blessing in disguise. We took some footages of the clients grooming some of the horses there.
Me, Max and Jason then conducted some interviews with some of the volunteers and trainers. Our 1st session turned out quite well, with no technical difficulties, but I think we can do much better for the next session, when the weather is good and there is better natural lighting.

The Shoot!
Wow! Today was a Wet DaY!! Bad Shooting conditions! When i woke up, it looked dark, i suspected something.. Then i felt cold and i knew something was wrong! The day was really bad and i couldn't find my DV tape in the morning! Washed up and asked my dad to look for it.. By the time we were done, it was near 830a.m and the weather had not cleared up yet! Met Aim at the interchange and we took bus 167 down to RDA, we brought alot of equipment ; tascam, video cam, 2 lens for camera - 1 wide lens and 1 tele-convert, tripod, boom mic, audio tech mic! It was amazing me and aim could manage but we did it, although i don't really want to carry so much stuff again! So we got to RDA, rain was still there, cold too.. Went to RDA with an empty stomach! We set up inside RDA and took shots, it was not easy but ma and Aim adjusted to the camera. We took grooming shots, walking shots, landscape shots, interviews and some paning shots. I think that today we had fun experimenting and getting some shots, i think the good thing is that we shot even though today the weather was not on our flavor, the bad thing is that we did not get any extra-ordinary shots which i was quite hopeful to get at least one very good one. But not bad for a day, Maybe some editing in the maclab will help! ;)

Production Report for Day1 of Filming - 1st Nov 2008
Today when we all woke up for our first day of filming we all heard thunder and lots of rain. We decided to postpone the shoot for a few minutes and just film what we can do today as we would not be able to go according to plan due to the bad weather.
I arrived at the RDA at 8.15am. Nobody, but Jasamine, one of the instructors of the RDA was there in the morning.
Rest of Team arrived 1 hour after that. Present were: Jason and Aim. Clients and volunteers arrived at about 8.45am to about 9 am.
Cameras were set up a little late due to experimentation of equipment when session was going on. The session was a stable management session instead of a riding session due to the unpredictable weather.
As for schedule, I felt that we were not really on schedule, first due to the bad weather and not being familier with equipments as well as set up of equipment
Working with the volunteers and riders - We were able to get shots of some of the riders grooming up the horses, stratching and riding. Since I wanted it to go as smoothly without interupting the session, I just let them do what they do. We were able to capture the riders ride the horses, mounting the horse was not able to capture well as we needed time for equipment to set up. Not so sure if those shots can be used. The grooming session to me felt like a home video instead of what I envisioned. This could be due to not knowing what to shoot and also with the amount of people at that area, it was a little hard to get something special out of it. According to the team, they said that they would be able to do something with those grooming clips. Took some scenery shots as well.
Interview sessions - Interview sessions went well. We were able to interview Jasamine and about 5 student volunteers. We were able to get the answers we wanted with the students and I would love to use them in the video as I think it would connect with pontential student volunteers. Interview with Jasamine went well execept that, I am not so sure if the passing of the vans made any disturbance with the sound of her answering the question. Were not able to ask for interview with other volunteers due to time of setting up of equipments and them needing to go off early.
We only got a clip of horse because fly mask looked very amusing. Nothing much to report
Most of the footage shot were for the back of the script.
What could be done better would be if team can come earlier to set up equipment and be more familierized with it so that we can get moving faster.
Concern - After recording interview with students, one of them (HCJC guy) says he is contracted with Mediacorp when I was passing around the telent release form. What is the procedure to clear him? What I did anyway was to get him to sign the form because he has recorded the interview already. Should I just leave it as that?
What we are gonna do next weekend is to do more interviews with the other volunteers and get them to tack up horse from scretch for filming purposes. We would need to get Zul's (Stable manager) permission to allow horse to gallop for video. Jasamine also suggest we use another client, forgot her name for video instead because can see difference after session. Also at the same time, just inform her on what we need for next filming session.
Would be going to RDA on Monday, can get things sorted for next shoot by then.

Minutes of Meeting with Serene (30 Oct 2008)
The meeting was to check if we are on track before moving on to the filming phase of our project.
Basically, we went through all the schedules, plans, scripts and request forms. We need to obtain or do up a Location Release Form.
We also shared/reminded her about our vision or objectives for the video and seeing if some plans may work on may not work in the editing room. She agrees with us, furthermore; we all said that there are clips that would be good for the video but putting them together is another issue and worth experimenting! These issues for example would be: L Tan as well as the clips with some of the clients of the RDA. Serene finally understands our vision!
Serene shared with us or gave us advice on filming in fair weather, the number to call for weather forcast. Plus how to deal with animals and with the people when we go to the RDA. Example: We do not need to be afraid to ask them to redo certain shots. We were also reminded that we are doing a video for a client.
After Serene was gone to do PP accessing, we all stayed back to go though the co-ordination for Friday when picking up the equipments and plans with backups on Saturday.

We also shared/reminded her about our vision or objectives for the video and seeing if some plans may work on may not work in the editing room. She agrees with us, furthermore; we all said that there are clips that would be good for the video but putting them together is another issue and worth experimenting! These issues for example would be: L Tan as well as the clips with some of the clients of the RDA. Serene finally understands our vision!
Serene shared with us or gave us advice on filming in fair weather, the number to call for weather forcast. Plus how to deal with animals and with the people when we go to the RDA. Example: We do not need to be afraid to ask them to redo certain shots. We were also reminded that we are doing a video for a client.
