On Friday we completed the fine cut of our Sense of Space project 'Hypnosis'. This blog has been posted 4 days after the fine cut completion and this is due to advice given to me when reading 'In the Blink of an Eye' by Walter Murch. In this book Murch says that the best thing to do with an edit is to complete it to the best of your ability and then leave it for a few days a keep your mind off of it. This helps to have a better critical state when relistening to the piece after a few days. For this reason I am going in tomorrow to have a final, detailed touch of the mistakes or existing problems that I may have missed if I had not left it. On top of this Jennie has allowed audience feedback for our piece by sharing it with her house mates. They have given pretty positive feedback which is a good start to the final stages before Thursday.
I have to comment on the book 'In the Blink of an Eye' as this has been very inspiring for certain techniques during the post production period of my sense of space assignment. Walter Murch is a very experienced industry professional and I respected his advice on the editing stages. I have adopted numerous techniques that he described that have positively contributed to the overall quality of our piece. This book has been an inspiration and influence in the overall technical side of editing in my Sense of Space project.
