I have finally finished up my interviews and have begun working on putting it together. I suppose the toughest part is figuring out how to put it all together in some sort of meaning. I have currently logged 91 gigs of interviews, about 12 people ranging from 20 to 40 minutes in length…and somehow I am supposed to get it down into 5-7 minutes in length. I believe that I have gotten myself into something I was somewhat not expecting, but at the same time I decided to do a documentary on the Titan Crew because of how much it means to me. It’s kinda like that project that you do the hard way because you think you’ll enjoy it more since you did it your way, until you are actually doing it and you keep asking yourself exactly why you decided to do it? If there is one thing I have learned from projects like that is that it's eventual outcome is your best and most fulfilling work.
Since this is something that is near and dear to me, I know that I will figure out some way to do this in a respectful and professional manor. The only problem is how? How do you do something a specific way without having any prior experience in it? How could I expect myself to succeed with something if I have never learned from my failures? I suppose the answer to that is…work. I will just have to dedicate myself to feeling the right way during this process. Till the finished project do we part. Now is the time where I have to begin thinking of how I want to cut around 4 hours of footage into 5-7 minutes… Let the games begin eh?
