Editing.

Before we started recording and planning the interview, we planned the opening titles of the documentary. These are to introduce the documentary and what it is about, what audience it is aimed at and it also grabs the viewers attention and makes them watch on. Before we could film we had to plan a story of the opening credits, also we chose a song to go witht he opening title.



































After all of this was planned we filmed the opening titles and edited them together and the writing and the song over the opening title. When the filiming of the interviews was put on the computer the first thing to do was edit the questions out of the interviews. This is because when we interviewed the interviewees we asked them to answer in full so that in made sense when we did edit the questions out.



















After the questions were edited out of the interview we had to choose cutaways which would fit in with the answers from the interviewee. These cutaways also hid jumps between the answers, when choosing these cutaways we found footage for our trichologist interview from an embarassing bodies programme on tricholomania. However we had to write a letter to see if we could use this footage :
Channel 4,
I am a media student from Weatherhead Media Arts college in Wirral. I am in my second year of my media course and am producing a Documentry about Hair.
I am writing to you to ask for permission to use a section of "Embarressing Bodies" as archive footage within my documentry.
If possible could you please reply with your answer.
Thankyou Ashleigh Hoey.
Also after all the editing of the interviews and the cutways were in the interviews, we recorded a voiceover to fit in with the documentary. We used these interviews to introduce the documentary and to change subject from hair loss to being a hairdressers.
