Editing the Second day of Filming

First of all, we edited the two interviews. On the camera, it looked as though you couldn't see any of Lydia's features in the shot which was what we wanted but when we put it onto the computer today it was actually very obvious and you could see her quite clearly. After playing about with the different settings we got the desired effect (below).

 We then put the title 'Gradient - Black' onto the clip to show who is in the shot. Because you couldn't see the victims face we thought that it should just say 'Victim - Chose to remain anonymous'. What we hope to do it cut this clip up and extract the audio and then put it in between clips of other footage of the attack etc to make a story and make it more interesting to watch than just not being able to see anybody.
There wasn't any editing that needed to be done to the friends interview except we added the same title (Gradient - Black) and wrote 'Rachel - Victim's Friend'.

We started to edit the footage of the attack but quickly realised that it was far too dark and no amount of editing will make it easy to see. We also realized we hadn't got enough footage or in enough angles so we decided not to edit the footage because we are not going to use it. Instead we are just going to take our mistake and learn from it so that next time we film we can get the shots right. As you can see below there were some shots that were so black no amount of editing could fix it.
