Final Project

My primary role in this project was editor, which meant I had to figure out which clips to use, which parts to get rid of for the sake of brevity, and how to navigate the combination of narrative and documentary styles. One big issue was sound, as Premiere is capricious when it comes to .mp3 files, so I had to convert the songs into a .wav format. I had to trust my partners' judgements as they told me when the shots should ease into each other and when jump cuts were acceptable. As opposed to other films which mostly center on one person running to class, we wanted to deviate from that style and create something original, as well as have each of us act. Our original script was more ambitious, including more scenes and extra characters. but we had to cut much material we originally had to fit the time constraint.
