When sharing mine and Lauren's current status on our documentary portfolio, I specifically expressed my concerns regarding b-roll, stating that I am worried the clips may become repetitive as the documentary progresses. In response, my peer Miguel asked for more information concerning the topics discussed by the subjects during the interview, to which I revealed facts primarily about the Jason Taylor Foundation, the sponsor of Sai and Josh's podcast. As a suggestion, Miguel contended that Lauren and I could acquire staged b-roll of the subjects researching the Foundation as well as mere clips illustrating the sponsor's information and/or background, a tip I will definitely attempt to employ during my editing journey.
In addition to the b-roll, I had my team mates visit my blog and assess the magazine layout Lauren and I selected. To my relief, my classmates all agreed that the template was extremely fitting for our project and that it accurately represented magazine conventions. As I stated on my last blog post, I believe that the third page of the layout (illustrated below) requires additional pictures on the left sideline, a topic which I inquired my classmates on today. Once again, they agreed that additional pictures would be beneficial, a confirmation I enjoyed. However, unlike what I stated on my blog, Miguel argued that the yellow background of the template matched well with the aesthetic of mine and Lauren's project. Although for now I still disagree, I will definitely discuss the point with Lauren and consider it further as I value the suggestion.
As I stated last time, it's nice to have friends.
