11/17 More footage (3:00p-3:45p) (8:30p-9:30p, 10:30-11:45)

After viewing all of my footage yesterday I realized that so much of my footage is shaky and much of it does not seem like it will be a believable transition. For example, the ground of the bridge is covered with leaves. Then when I transition to the next scene it is obvious that they are not in the same place because the ground is not as leafy and has a sidewalk in it. Yesterday I photoshopped the sidewalk out of it, however it still looks as if it does not belong. It occurred to me this morning that maybe I can take a few stills of leaves, crop and overlay them so that the ground appears to have leaves on it. So, I spent about forty-five minutes gathering different shots of leafy areas and reshooting the bridge with the caution signs. Hopefully I have at least one smooth shot!

No chance on one smooth shot. I am not so sure about my concept at the moment. I am still in the beginning stages of piecing clips together, before I begin to really edit my footage. At the moment it is really disconnected and choppy. Uggghhhh. I have about thirty-three takes, seventeen still shots and three large audio files at the moment. Time, time, time is not on my side.
