Distracted or Drunk Driving

Are We Done Yet?

Over the last two weeks, we have done quite a lot! We have edited the whole video and started making it into a movie. We are very happy with how everything is turning out. It definitely has been a   stressful week trying to get this documentary done in time. We planned at the beginning to interview cops and firefighters about distracted driving, but have run out of time to get that far. It's much harder to interview and edit a video clip than we thought. We're happy to say that we are almost done with the documentary!
There has been one big complication while editing this documentary. We filmed our interviewee in the middle of the quad. The lighting looks great on camera, but there is a lot of background noise. It was also filmed on a windy day, which adds to the background noise. It has been very hard for us to edit the talking out, but we're working on it and we hope to get it done before the video is due!
This project has showed us success and failure. It has been a wonderful project to work on all semester long and we cannot wait to show our final project!

  1. Great progress on your project! Are you interviewing multiple people to see their opinion on distracted driving or are you focusing on one individual's story? I think that both perspectives would be very interesting to see. Can't wait to see the final video!

  2. Cool to see your video's almost ready. Is it a really long one, or will it be part of your presentation? Also, since you've only interviewed one person, will there be a specific focus on his/her story, or will there be an overall appeal with your interviewee as an example?

  3. This sounds really interesting! I am not in your period, but I hope to still see the final product. If you are using iMovie, I believe there is a setting that will lessen background noise, so you two can look into that. Best of luck!
