The Senioritis Disease

So we got into the editing and finally put this monster together, and I must confess.. it rocks the socks. We took massive footage over last week and compiled it with extra footage we had from taking our wonderful flip videos to the bar. So after we compiled all the footage on Final Cut Pro we began to snip and clip different portions.

Thank God Geoff knows how to use Final Cut the way he does or we'd be in a heap of trouble.

Granted we didn't find an authority figure or professor to share their views about Senioritis, we felt that words from the kids going through Senioritis were more important than the thoughts of on lookers. We didn't find a shortage in seniors willing to talk about their feelings about Senioritis so that was nice. We took a bunch of interviews to place on this feed. Once again we learned a valuable lesson... B-roll, B-roll, B-roll. Without your outside footage to coat the voices your piece is pretty much futile and every facet.

We had a ton of fun putting this piece together especially on bar night where we took footage. Everybody played a strong role in putting the feed together so well done to all!
