EDIT SERIES
The following is an Edit Series of three unique works I produced over the semester:
The pieces are as follows:
- Commercial Edit – The Sit’Em: An infomercial for “the latest innovation in Cat Toys”.
- Documentary Edit – Annabel Warne: An interview with a freelance artist about her business, her work, and her studio.
- Narrative Edit – The Anniversary: A man who cannot cook agrees to cook a complicated dinner for his girlfriend on the night of their anniversary. The film follows his successes and failures throughout the day.
These works are an amalgamation of what I learnt over the semester. Specifically, I hope they reflect my commitment to strengthening weaknesses I identified throughout the semester, including:
- My use of music to enhance a scene (I often prioritised the visuals over the audio aspect)
- Pre-production (I would prefer to “jump into something” than plan a shoot/edit)
- Editing efficiency (I would often get “bogged down” during an edit and not set myself any deadlines)
Mostly, I hoped to convey a comedic, light-hearted and humorous tone throughout the pieces, as these are the types of media I enjoy watching in my spare time.
