Okay, so editing for The Ghost Recordist was, admittedly, pretty easy. We had like 12 clips on the timeline, hardly any intercutting, it was a doddle, I almost felt bad for the other groups. I guess this balances out with some of the difficulties we encountered on our shoot. Niall and James had a lot of trouble blocking out the shots in a way that flowed, that was difficult because the editing was so sparse. I think what we've got is a good representation of the style we're going for, even if it doesn't make perfect sense right now... We may need some amendments on the script for the main shoot. Anyway, major project presentations are pretty soon and I'm not quite sure what exactly they entail, I should go find out!... Okay, I'm still not sure, may need to ask in class.
Editing the sound for Who's the Mother, and Isolation, however, that was a different beast altogether. Who's the Mother was a lot of dialogue panning and fixing transitions between shots, it was time consuming if nothing else, I wish I had more time to work on it though. I had a lot of fun with Isolation. Besides the mixing of lots of wind atmos, I had bits and pieces of foley to do, which I have a particular fondness for. I could really get creative with this one too, they wanted lots of non-diegetic sounds to build up an atmosphere in the second to last scene. I won't reveal too much though, I'll leave it for the presentations.
