Messenger Chat Updates:

Although COVID-19 has meant we are unable to meet up to discuss our project, we still discuss rather frequently on our FB messenger group on new ideas and things we need to do to further our documentary on the little material we were able to record. 

Corona Virus Update:

Due to Corona Virus we are now unable to meet up to film anymore for our documentary. Fortunately, we filmed the main interview footage of the documentary very early on, allowing us to have some footage to present for the final assessment. After being informed that the assessment process has changed, we have opted to send in an edited version of the interview with a written treatment on what we would have added in if it was a completed doc. So we will discuss over the internet the changes we should make to the interview and what should stay or go.

This is very disheartening as we were all looking forward to completing the project. However, the safety of everyone in the group and Caroline herself (an at risk person) is far more important. We have decided to complete the project as we hoped after the lockdown has passed later in the year. 

Process of cutting down interview:

Below is a list of what was said throughout the interview. I cut up all of the 50 minute interview into around 45 different segments and labelled each clip with what was said in the scene. This was extremely beneficial as I was able to delete certain parts, reorder segments and keep all the clips with the best parts of the interview. It took a while to go through at the beginning, but in the long run it will be very beneficial for the editing process.
