Practice Story Reflection

We were assigned a project in which we had to interview a person and film b-roll to go along with what the interviewee said. My team's story was "Audrey Practices Painting". We had one day to shoot b-roll and one day to shoot the interview. Then we had to transcribe our interview word for word onto a document and plan out transitions the narrator would say to make the story flow.We had two days to film the narration and edit the videos.

In the beginning we had some problems because
 we couldn't come up with a story. When we had to film our b-roll and interview, though we worked really good and got back to class in time to import everything. Editing wasn't hard either, but we didn't have enough interview footage to make our video a minute long. We added an intro-screen and to add b-roll without interview to make the video longer. We didn't finish on time, so we turned it in a couple minutes late.

We could have improved a lot of things. For one, we could have made our interview longer and worded the answers so it's easier to edit. Also, we could've had more creative shots when we were filming b-roll. Communication would've helped us a lot because we just did one thing at a time with one person working and the others sitting around. I think, with the time we had we did an ok job.
