You're right Kren, it is subjective. I used to just produce what I think of as a purely documentary edit, in addition to the highlights. But I've just started to offer what I call a cinematic feature - about 20 -30 minutes long. Really though, I think it's as much documentary as cinematic, if not more so. But since you asked, here's my first attempt at it:
Hi John...good work. It appears from watching this clip you invested a lot of time to produce the final edit.
Can you tell us how much time YOU spent?
Is there a secret to pushing out this edit in a reasonable time.
I love the concept.

Thanks Tom. I'm guessing I spent a solid 20 hours on it, maybe a little more. I'm not the fastest editor in the world, for sure. I basically choose the best sound I've got, roughly try to arrange it so that it forms some sort of narrative, and then build the edit around that, adding the shorter natural sound breaks and music montages. Not sure if this is the most efficient way; I'm still trying to get my head around this kind of edit and the workflow because it's so different from what I had been doing. |
