BLOG ON HIATUS - Too Much Transcribing and Logging

Ok, there’s not much happening, and not much to comment on at the moment. I’m still ploughing through interviews, which, while they are extremely interesting, are also very long and make my fingers sore. Though my typing speed has increased phenomenally.

When I get tired of transcribing, I log footage. We shot a bunch of B-roll stuff, the landscapes out the bus windows, shots around the towns and cities, stuff we did in different places (like the Hairy Leg contest, snow carving and careening down Mont Tremblant on a toboggan), and stuff like the crab fishing, and stuff that I can’t even remember right now. Let’s just say that there’s a lot of footage that needs to be gone through, and each separate shot or thing that might be used needs to be described and have its timecode written down, and that’s what I do for fun when I’m not transcribing. This is where an assistant editor would come in handy . . .

But this blog is only occasionally being updated as it is right now, so it’s going to go on hiatus for a while so I can get this stuff done. I’ll see you in the next phase!
