Mahsa - Progress Report #7

Our editing is crawling to an end, and after many weeks of hard work it seems we’re practically done with the project. It feels great to have participated in such a wonderful event, and to have had a hand in a great creation! I think all we need to do now is add credits and we’ll be set.

Right now I’m working on the poster for the end of the semester showing for all the video projects. Andy will be taking care of the flyers and Jeremy is going to help with pamphlets. I’ll have to gather more pictures from the other groups of their work-in-progress, to create a visually appealing poster, and play with color. I’m not sure about the final design as of yet, though.

Stepping Up Finished Rough Cut

Amanda_Blog #6

I couldn't be happier with how things are going! I met up with Mahsa and Jeremy yesterday to oversee what was going on as far as editing. I haven't had to do much in the way of editing but I have been giving some music recommendations. I made a folder with at least 15 possible songs that we could use for the video and let the group pick what they thought would work for the video. I didn't have to stay because they were busy editing and I wasn't needed.

As I type this, Jeremy is doing some cleaning up of the rough cut but it is basically complete. I plan on having this posted to our blog and have Jo review it so I can get feedback and figure out if we need to change anything. I'm really happy with how this turned out!!

Also, I have to say, I'm really glad we were able to get an interview with Robin. The first two times we had tried, she was unavailable and we had to schedule it for sometime after spring break. We interviewed her on Thursday last week and it was great! We got a lot of great footage from her and it looks great in the video.
