Editing This

 For the Psycho Recreation my last role was that of editor, this by far is my biggest problem coming up as i have never edited before and have never learned, hopefully this research will give me some insight.

Editor 
Is part of the creative post-production process of film making. The film editor works with the raw footage, selecting shots and combining them into sequences and scenes to create a finished Film, or in my case to create a documentary.
What does this in tale 

• Working closely with the Director to craft the finished product
• Working in an edit suite for long hours
• Creating a product that works for the idea
• To make sure the Documentary makes sense and can be understood
• Understand dramatic telling of a product that has a rhythm, pace and tension, if required for the documentary  

Lightning The Way

As my previous Post during Loc/Doc Drama i have chosen to be part of a Psycho Recreation group, i was chosen to do three roles I've have already touched upon Sound. In this post i will go in depth with Lightning Technician

Lighting Tech

Lightning Techs are involved with rigging location sets and controlling artificial, electric lights, to give certain moods or looks to shots, again i will be doing this for the documentary which doesn't require much difference lightning techniques but just another to make it look pleasing.

To be a good Lightning Tech i will have to be:

• pay great attention to detail
• take a logical approach to problem-solving
• be able to plan ahead effectively
• possess physical and mental stamina for long working hours

Sound Guy

This post will look at what Sound Engineer  does, what i will do and so forth. However i will be only doing sound for the documentary.

Sound Engineer can be broken into to sections:
