One
thing about going through all this archive footage was that I had to
really get all of this footage into my memory, so that as I was going
through the interviews, I would be able to recall something like, "Oh
yeah, that shot with Toshi speaking to the kids at the school, that
would go nicely here!"
The
other way that I dealt with all this archive footage is to also
ingrain into my mind all of the final interview footage, and the
story as far as I had it. Then as I was going through archive
footage, I would say to myself something like, "Oh yeah, this
shot with Toshi dancing in the street, this would go great at that
part when he's talking about always practicing."
So
really, in working with all this footage, I had to memorize both the
story and interview content that I had finalized, and also all of the
archive and other secondary footage from my own library.
Unfortunately, my memory isn't that good, so there was a lot of
scrubbing through and reviewing footage throughout the whole editing
process.
