I felt a lot more confident going in to look at the rushes
of our interview with Richard with the Director. I think we both knew that the
shots were a lot stronger and better thought out. It was a relief to see this
reflected onscreen when we looked through the footage. I also feel that the
sound recorded in the interview is a lot stronger and smoother than the sound
recorded in the previous interview which I am glad about because as it is a
documentary, sound is very important for the audience to hear the information. I
used a boom mic to record sound for this interview rather than a lapel mic, as
I found when I used a lapel mic on the first interview, it picked up a lot of
rustling sounds whenever Lindsey touched her hair or shuffled in the seat,
which was quite distracting. I also found it easier to maintain levels on this
shoot as Richard had quite a clear, level voice whereas Lindsey’s voice grew in
noticeable volume whenever she answered more of the question.
I think the main problem with our edit will be deciding
which parts of the interview to include, and what parts to leave out, as I feel
all of it is interesting and could teach people a lot about the vegetarian
lifestyle and the stigma attached to it.
