EDITING DAY

In the editing suites. Working on our video, photographs and powerpoint.

It’s so funny because after looking at our footage all together, we realised that our questions didn’t really match up in terms of what we were aiming to express/convey through our footage. So we decided to retweak the questions.

Tweaking the questions based on our footage:

Question 1

Before: How does time of day play a part in how people interact with their sacred place?

After: Does an intersection create a sense of community?

• No it doesn’t. even though the park is meant to be a communal space, we didn’t observe any physical interaction.
• We found no different in time of day in what people were doing. The footage over the three hours was essentially the same. So we decided to re-word our question.

Question 2

Before: How does one person’s perspective and interpretation change from another’s when viewing the same space from a different position?

After: What is the importance of looking at a certain space past the basis of what we initially observe it to be?

• Taking away interpretation. It’s more about how we observe space and our level of selfishness in what we observe and notice.
• Through different angles, looking at it’s purpose (children’s sacred space) and the finer detail (photos, up close of structure)

Question 3

Before: How does physical interaction with a place impact its emotional connection and level of sacredness?

After: How do people use a shared space and make it sacred in their own way?

• Observing people in their natural environment
• Seeing how people use space differently
• Works better with the footage of the skate park and people reading/sitting in their natural environment.
