After the studio, I knew that I wanted to get some footage of Ramon walking, and even conducting part of an interview while walking down the street. I like the idea of the dynamism that would lend to the footage.
Unfortunately,
in the final film much of this footage is not used. The main reason
for this is because I think the mic was not plugged into the recorder
properly. The jack was a bit loose, so the audio was difficult to
use. This was even true of the interview after the walk, when we were
sitting in the park. I liked the shot, and I wish we could have used
it, but... things happen.
Even
still, most of the interview content from these interviews would have
still been left on the edit room floor because it just didn't serve
the central themes of the film; the content was far too tangential to
where I finally decided to go. But I did utilize some of these shots
as incidental shots for the film.
Perhaps
some of this raw footage can be compiled for a more in-depth project
of Ramon, or something like that.
