Editing Process 4 - Keira

We have now completely finished the editing of our film (as you can see above), and we are very pleased with the product although the sound took alot longer than expected.
The voice over in the end was recorded with myself as the female part and Carl Williams (who also played guitar for the sound track) as the male part, due to availability and for the sake of ease. We had some trouble editing it (particularly in the part where it cuts quickly between the two voices) as there wasn't enough of a gap left between each word so some of them ('love' in particular) seem to end very suddenly.
We also had alot of trouble downloading the video (Scrubs or Brief Encounter) from Youtube, so we had the idea of using a different source to illiminate this problem. I downloaded an episode of Gavin and Stacey from iTunes (episode 1) which Adam suggested would be appropriate to the theme as the final words are:
'I told myself if I ever saw you again that I'd tell you something.'
'If you say it I'll say it back.'
'I love you.'
'I love you too.'
(Watch below, from approx 8:00 onwards):


We cut it at 'If you say it i'll say it to', as in our story Kate is just about to say she loves him and we know Tom won't say it back, so we thought to have that as the last line on the TV they're watching would introduce some cruel comic irony.
Despite the difficulties we faced with the sound we are all pleased as a group with the final product and with the feedback we've recieved so far.
