Ok, so we showed our images to the class and briefly discussed our ideas before swapping with another group (Jade, Alex and Vicky) and exchanging our images for their video footage. They had warned us that they didn't have that much footage, and we were having problems getting a time when we could all meet up, so we decided on Monday to edit it.
When we got to the footage there was around three minutes, but the problem was it was mostly a continous shot of a person getting up in the morning and half of it was a retake of certain shots. We began to think how we could edit it and decided to use the fact that they'd re-filmed certain shots and that the continuity wasn't right.
The idea behind our edit was to show that there was more than one person in the house, it was the process of several people getting up and finding different things. We implied there'd been a party the night before and that they were remembering certain things and regretting certain things. The overall result we got wasn't really a finished piece because we ran out of time. It's a piece I wasn't happy with and it was strange to have not had the control over what was shot and the lighting.
It was an interesting experiment to swap material with another group but I prefer being in control of the thing I'm going to edit by having filmed it and shot it myself.
