Post production – Constraints and creativity

Post-production presented different obstacles, the role as editor being one that I asked for and then became harder to navigate in terms of relating the product to a vision of the director, which was hard to understand at certain points through communication errors are both with myself and the product. Because I felt would be instrumental in my future as a video editor and relating the product to what the client or director once and trying to live that best as possible while also having creative integrity within the piece and finding a medium ground to communicate that. The edit itself went through multiple revisions and drafts, taking on critical feedback and incorporating it in a way that serves the piece as well as my own creative needs, for something that I had to feel instinctively. Through the formal process of going back and forth with a client foreign edit became helpful in what I should expect with pieces and building and understanding of not only commercial pieces or films and work with a set structural but working on something that has no structural and rather is more felt then intellectually understood, having of various pieces for My Portfolio. In terms of editing technique I did find that sound and one piece of footage to begin with was where I built the rest of the edit building up a strong sound design was how I figured out where things should go on an experimental piece like this with the constraints of no structure meant that I could play around the scenes that maybe if trying to be portrayed chronologically would be a different fit.
