Documentary - Post Production

Editing the documentary I assume was a challenge, I spent most of the post-production process focused on the script. After the intense filming days, we finally got to see all our hard work come together. Sorting through all the B-roll from Brickell and Town Center was a little discouraging as the footage wasn't exactly what we thought it was. We had a lot of footage that felt a bit out of place, or off topic, so finding good footage was a hassle. We used the script for the voiceover as our guiding blueprint, ensuring that the visuals supported our central argument about walkability and its impact on community life. We experimented with different cuts and transitions, trying to go for a creative version of an otherwise boring documentary. We made sure the difference between the close-knit, bustling Brickell footage and the more spread-out, suburban Weston footage was visually clear, letting the audience to grasp the difference.
