Process and Notes from Hanson

Process for Completion and Notes From Hanson


1. Order your sequences
-SCRIPTING (1-2 people orders each section)
-what pieces are similar?
-create a "bin" with extra comments included
-make it cohesive

2. Re-arrange the sequences based on the whole content
-keep the big picture in mind
-learn to let go of unnecessary details and walk away with the most important factors

3. Listen to it with closed eyes
-make final touches to the overall piece and polish
-critique for further review and show it to Hanson

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Content = Skeleton and MAIN POINT Key Notes: -Tighter is better (balance length with the amount of information being said, don't worry about length) -don't feel trapped, go get the footage if you need it! -work on ordering sequences while still gathering footage to save time -discuss the state of editing by specific dates and DEADLINES (they are included in the calendars)
-Communicate and work together as a team, one person shouldn't be doing all the work and one person shouldn't be doing nothing as well

Heather Update:

Since only Jahrette and I were here, Heather met with me to give feedback. She saw the resync'd footage, and high-fived with how we were able to save the Brian Kennedy work with the shots from Camera 1. So it's solid: We have an interview that isn't shit, now we just need more (and for the Glass people to give us a damn script, but that's not really anything in our power right this moment).

Anyway, she had me write some notes, they were brief, so it'll be short:

o We need Drew to make nameplates, from picking a font to otherwise designing a trendy setup. For our current (and only) working interview, it should be organized like:

Brian Kennedy
Director, Toledo Museum of Art

Set the setting to Preset > Film & Video, HDV 1080, in Photoshop. She conveniently screencapped it:


o Note to self: Rename the Artworks Footage.

o Use video markers in the video as B-Roll Guides.

o We should have a vector of the logo to possibly have in the corner of our video, which will then be made transparent within Final Cut itself. Up to us if we wait until they give us a conference logo or we simply use their actual logo:


o Heather showed possibilities to try to make the archival footage more engaging than something you'd see on the history channel. Not going to use that image drag she implimented as even she said it was horribly campy, but even so, there is possibility there.

So yes, it's mostly notes for me, but the vector (preferably vector, I guess it doesn't have to be) of the logo and the nameplates are something outside of the editing notes.

Otherwise, did the work I was tasked, and here are the notes I notepadded about it:
==================================================================

Glass Art Society Logo - FOUND (not conference, just normal)

    Also, if the black and white photos become overabundant, I know how to colorize black and white photos in photoshop, and can do that to allow for black and white to color fade, or whatever. The goal is to make it look like something that isn't from the History Channel.

    For images of Bertil Vallien, he was (unless that photo is him) nowhere on the archival photos, and I ran out of time before I could search the library link. Still needs to be done.

    Self note: The 1913 to 1996 folder has some amazing photos of pavillion pieces. Could probably try to have it fade from photo to recording for each one we can match.
