Documentary Draft

The documentary I decided to do was on my friend's experiences on being a freshman engineer on campus. Most of the footage has been cut-off due to some filming restrictions, so it is currently very choppy and incomplete. Most of the footage is interview shots and some b-roll footage, so fitting it into the time frame may be a challenge. Filming my subject is a hassle due to conflicting schedules, so the footage is going to be tough to re-do, but will need to be. Some of the editing that has been done involves the cutaway shots, some light music in the background during transitions, and the cut-off interview is in place as a sort of time holder to gauge the length so far. I've more or less decided how the film is going to be edited, and how I desire the tone to be like, so while the process is far from complete, it can now be finished much more quickly once the footage is recorded. In addition to that, I've come up with several more relevant questions to ask the subject now that I have a much more clear idea of what I want to do with the documentary, and intend to tie the action shots and b-roll footage much more closely together.
