So, "Movement" is finally done.... sort of. Since I missed class due to me being sick last week, I was behind in the whole audio department. I had a rough time in Final Cut Pro, since I had to basically freestyle the whole audio bit. I'm happy to be done with it, let me tell. The cut is still rough; I am definitely looking forward to showing the piece in class, get feedback, and then writing another self-critique.
But, since I am here to critique myself, I due have some things that I regret. The acting from Kelsey, while good mostly, is wooden in a few areas, and the dialogue can be dead pan at times. Their are a few scenes where cars drive by, and while I did edit around them, it would have worked better if I had just reshot in the first place. Next, I need to pay more attention to my presence and ambient noise. I was able to fiddle with the volume levels, and it's a good thing that I recorded presence before I did anything else, because I was able to loop it in to join the scenes, but I need to pay more attention to the mic levels.
All around though, I'm very satisfied with the project. Kelsey was fun to work with, and I was able to fully realize my idea, I think. I definitely need to ask Jill a few transition questions, but I am happy with it.
