I was given a brief to edit a mashup of judge comments for So You Think You Can Dance 2010. A little like the edits that Casetteboy produces:
I love Casetteboy’s stuff and was so excited to see him in the BBC talking about winning The Virtual Revolution.
After a mammoth digitising session I was able to move on to subclipping the judges comments.
Whilst subclipping, I used what the various judges said to name each clip. This meant that I could print out the bin and piece together sentences like a giant word jigsaw puzzle.
With a little help from Post-It notes, I was able to clearly see each sentence.
To give the edit a twist, I then replaced the actual footage with key words that each judge said.
It was an interesting way of working as it meant I could practice my title tool and keyframing.
The mashup edit will be available on Monday for everyone to watch.
I hope you enjoy!
