During this week we made a newspaper and large scale version of Harold's scrapbook. This weekend we also shot close-ups of these; both as the pages are turning, and focusing in on particular articles, photographs, letters etc. These shots will be edited into the scenes where Harold is reading the paper or looking through his scrapbook, so that we get a sense of seeing things through his eyes, and to utilise a different style of shot.
After this shoot was completed we began to cut a rough edit of the film. We have all of Harold's shots edited into sequence, and now we need to cut in these shots of the newspaper and scrapbook, and also some still scenic shots we have taken throughout the process to highlight some of the details in the models and to set the scene.
Our blogs from now on will keep you up to date on the editing process until Joy is completed!
