half a cup of tea, puppy looking out the window as dusk plays out and i have a satisfied feeling. i’ve over come the technical issues at the beginning of the week to end the week with a small list of final cut pro edits left to do.
there remains questions about the wide angle nature of the footage i’ve shot and wether wearing a camera produces images that begin to jar over time.
today i’ve been editing the material shot in the stores of the derby silk mill. something that comes across for me was my inquisitiveness about the sounds the objects make. this sonic interest is further augmented by the sound of the doors. they squeak and thunk and add pace and interest to what we can see.
earlier in the week i spoke of my thoughts and considerations going into the korsakow programming for the film. these centred on the nature of the keywords that link the small narrative units together. spending time within the final cut pro editing has helped me to simplify my thinking around keywords.
something i needed to to to help this was to left go of the linear nature of walking around the museum space. letting go of this has opened up a playfulness that creates a little tension in myself because it rails against what i know.
i spoken with producer sue this week and it all feels good. again something that continues to impress me is how the derby silk mill project is peopled by people who are able to maintain an open mind and always are able to listen and respond to the sometimes difficult nature of the process.
i’m liking how i feel tonight as a result of working hard on the project this week. i might just have a little beer later…
