Edit progress and feedback



The feedback we received for our first rough cut was very helpful in order for us to progress with our documentary, we were at that point only half way through editing so there were a few adjustments and improvements to be made. As we wanted our documentary focused around students specifically and the effects of sleep on them, we gathered a lot of research on the subject as well as including students in the footage when we could. However Tom was our subject who we put to the test so it was suggested that we focus more on him and specifically his experience to make it that bit more personal. One specific aspect that we wanted to experiment with was green screen, specifically a shot of tom laying down with the camera at a birds eye view angle, in order to do this we needed to use a piece of equipment that we hadn't used before called the ‘jib’. We received help and guidance in order to use the equipment effectively and it worked quite well. Also we waned to get an interview with a specialist who specialised in sleep and/or student health in order for us to have professional input and to give it more authenticity, this was a little difficult however so we were given some tips on how to contact someone to help us.
