Testing a sequence:

 We have come to a point in the documentary where we all agree that there needs to be some change in tone and pacing. We are going to show Josee 'getting ready' to create Onlyfans content, while showing a perspective of the 'consumer' about to interact with the content. This works at a very good time as after this sequence we hear of Josee getting a sub on her Onlyfans, so it could be interpreted as that was the individual who subbed interacting with her work. 

The montage in question would be a rhythmic sequence as Josee gets ready, ending in royalty free footage presenting a metaphorical orgasm. This works a s a comedic sequence, but it's also us addressing the norm of this world, by presenting it in this way it has a little more subtilty and it's done in a respectful way. At the moment it's an idea we are attempting and hopefully it fits in well. We do feel we need something there to alter the pacing, that many editing theories advise you do.

Week 7 - Subtitling

 In this seminar we looked at how to set up subtitles on premiere pro for our projects. I won't go into the out and outs of how to achieve this, but I want to discuss how necessary this is for our project and not just our project but possibly in future work. In our project specifically we will definitely need to look at adding some subtitles in for the interview when the neoncouple speak, not just because it was over zoom, but because they wore masks to hide their identity and this skewed some of their speech so some parts are hard to hear. This is easily fixed through simple subtitles at the bottom of the screen for the sections we use of their answers.  On top of this, growing this skill allows for possible work in the future. It was discussed in the seminar that there is a lot of work out there for good subtitling work, especially nowadays with shows on streaming services. This gives incentive for me to actually focus on doing this and doing it well to possibly improve chan...

Week 5 - Post Production Planning

 This is another seminar on the post production process that I found helpful in knowing what is important in my role to focus on. We were told to know your footage inside and out to know off the top of your head where you would want footage to go, this is definitely a beneficial thing to be able to do as I have done this in previous projects and it helps to be efficient with the edit.  The importance of making multiple drafts was also discussed so you can constantly fine tune your film to make it the best it can be. This then allows you to narrow down your story to make it the best it can be, focusing on interesting the audience from the beginning to the end. As mentioned before, it is integral to create a rollercoaster that allows for the highs to feel even higher and the lows to feel lower. If a rollercoaster stayed in the same motion the whole duration it wouldn't be as enjoyable, this is the exact same when it comes to editing a documentary/film. Being aware of this will h...

Documentary Title:

 This is a short post just to update on a possible title for our documentary that my group have discussed and put forward. I think this is the best title for our documentary that Josee suggested:  Onlyfans: The Online Sexhibit  I believe this is a great title and it really highlights the voyeuristic aspects of not just Onlyfans but also our desktop documentary. This is achieved through the joining of the words exhibit (things you look at) and sex (what Onlyfans shows); this title may change as time goes on, but I believe this is a great name put forward by Josee that should be the title.
