This
was my first experiment with film editing. I tried to get a lot more
moving shots, but then I realized that doing this really wasn't kind
to the viewer, who would always have to shift her gaze, and move her
eyes based on how I had the screen moving. It was from this
realization that I decided to leave out so much movement. But there
is still a bit of movement, anyway.
I
also realized that some shots just didn't have the impact that I
wanted them to have, so I had to leave out some landmarks that I
really wanted in there, like the Empire State Building (but it was
too cloudy on the shooting day), or the Williamsburg Bridge (which
just didn't feel right, for some reason).
The
next step was that I knew I wanted some sort of animation for the
title screen. But I didn't even know what the title of the show would
be. Nor did I have any idea of how the animation would come together;
I had no vision for it. So I just started by looking through books
and images for inspiration. I had no idea what I was looking for, but
when something hit my eye, I knew it.
