Editing is in full swing

Today we made lots of progress in the edit for 'Crooks and Bones', and began to really get an idea of the finished piece. I was an hour late so when I arrived music was roughly in place and I got to hear it for the first time, which from then on I began hacking at the visuals to make it fit the music far better. I experimented with using the music as cues for the cuts and decided that it would be better to cut up the music more and make it fit the visuals more, rather than a solid audio track with nothing done to it. We recorded voiceover for the beginning in the car, and recorded the last missing shot all in 10 minutes. After getting it onto Final Cut we worked a lot more on the pacing of the video and the voiceover as one, changing shot ordering, length and speed to make it seem far more natural.
