I was a bit nervous about showing Martine our footage, because I didn't think we had enough and we still hadn't worked out a solid order that we wanted them in, or even how we would connect them. I mean we had basic, vague ideas, but considering it's due in Thursday, it's worrying.
However, Martine gave some great advice, saying how she liked our footage and that we should concentrate on collaborating the sound and images as a team. We knew what we each had, but we were editing them seperately using final cut pro and sound track pro, but Martine said that we needed to start putting it all together and that would help us figure out an order.
She also pointed out that there's no need to ease the audience into anything. She thought that our opening scene of the exam didn't seem to connect with the more obvious images of the fears and thought would be better once the audience knew what our film was about. But the main point I got from this tutorial was that it's ok to just throw the audience right in there, so to speak, and just shock them with our images from the beginning.
It really helped give me ideas about editing and ordering our footage.
