Voiceover Recording

Scripting Voiceover

During the editing process we had left spaces in the documentary for where the voice over would be. These consisted of before sections and the voice over would be used as a introduction to it (to let the audience know what they are about to watch.

Editing

Once all the planning was done we were finally able to start editing our documentary on Premiere Pro CS6. We each had a go at editing at some point and have collected screen grabs of the process and put them all in prezi.

Once the editing process had been done we needed to email the production companies that owned the sogns we wanted to use and ask their permission if we could use them.

The songs that we have chosen

Edit Decision List

We were told to create an edit decision list before we started editing. This consisted of us planning each shot we would use and putting them in the order that they would appear. This would be used and looked at as we edited our documentary.

Logging Sheet

Over the duration of filming we used three memory cards. Over the course of the filming we would log in the shots that we had done, a short description of the shot and whether or not it was a good take or a bad take.

Filming Still Images

On 27th November 2012 after looking through our videos again we realised that we needed to film one more thing; still images. So me and Chloe printed off three images and filmed them. We zoomed in on certain areas and filmed them with no camera technique so we had a range to choose from.

 

 

 

Third Try at Voxpop

Chloe and I went out on Monday 12th November to Liverpool to try and film our voxpop again. This time was a success as we got 7 people to answer our questions. Although we did have to move location due to us not being able to film at a certain place without permission (We were at Liverpool One) but we soon found another place we were allowed to film at.

Dog Owner Interview

On Wednesday 7th November ALex interviewed a dog owner. This went well as we were not only to conduct the interview but film and take photo`s of the dog for the cutaways.

 

 

Interview with Hearing Dog Owner

On Tuesday 6th November during one of our media lessons we interviewed a partially deaf woman who owns a hearing dog. As she brought her dog we were not only able to film the interview but her dog as well for the cutaways.

Interviews with Dog Owners. Filmed Opening Title

On 5th November Alex and I went to my house to film three interviews and all of which were dog owners. We first interviewed a dog owner named Claire inside the house who had come round just for the interview. Once we has finished asking the questions we went outside to film my dogs for the cutaways of the interviews with Tommy and Thomas as it was getting dog and we really needed the shots. We filmed the two dogs together and separate. When that had been done we went inside to film Tommy and Thomas.

Once all the interviews had been done we then started to film our opening title sequence. This included us drawing on a dog bowl the words `Paws For Thought` and then pouring dog biscuits into the bowl and letting the dog each the biscuits from it. At first we were going to write the letters with dog biscuits but we tried that and not all the letters would fit in the bowl.

Second Try at Voxpop

On Monday 5th October all three of us went to Central Park to have another go at the voxpop. There were many people with dogs yet declined to answer our questions. The journey was not a complete waste as we were able to film the dogs walking past yet it means we will have to go back out again to film the voxpop.
