Knowing
that I couldn't quite memorize everything that I was working with,
another way around this editing problem was to merely envision what
sort of shots would go with some dialogue. So, I would just listen to
the final interview edit, and close my eyes to envision what kind of
image would go with the words he spoke. Then I would stop the
interview, and layer on top of the interview a plate with words
describing what I wanted to see while he said something.
If
Toshi was talking about wanting to make other people's dreams come
true, I knew that I wanted to include some kind of animation with his
Dream Maker Logo, and I would put as a placeholder a plate that said
"Toshi Logo Animation"; if he was talking about teaching
kids, I would put as a placeholder a plate that said "Toshi
teaching kids." At this point of the process, it seemed like
this was a nice way to try to time what I needed, too; so I would see
how the plate felt at 2 seconds, or four seconds, then when I found
the footage that I would use, I knew exactly where it would go, and
how long it would last.
