Digital News: Interview Footage Review

The day after we filmed our interview with Katie Joslin, we met up at the studios to review the footage and decide what to put in the final edit.

INTERVIEW FOOTAGE REVIEW

By this point, I hadn't had a chance to edit any of the footage together as we only filmed it the day before, so we had to just view the raw clips back.

We went through each clip and listened to what Katie said, as well as looking at how the footage from our two cameras could be cut together. During this review, Becca kept notes on the answers she would like to use in the final cut. These decisions were made by ensuring we had all we needed to answer the key questions our news package aims to answer. We only needed about 1 minute worth of footage from the interview, so it was essential that we cut some of her answers down or out of the final cut.

During the meeting, I kept a note of everything that was said to me, so I knew what to and what not to use in the edit of the rough cut. Having this viewing was a really good idea, as it helped us understand whether or not we got what we needed from the interview. It also helped Nisserin and Rebecca decide if we needed to change any parts of the script to match the answers Katie gave in her interview.
