Watches Interview
Basic documentary technique. The rushes (7’ 00”) include a single interview and visual supporting material. The aim of the exercise is to produce an informative item of about 30” duration
Cops ‘n Robbers

Basic drama technique. The story extract (rushes 10’ 00”) contains a dialogue scene, and a short action chase. The aim of the exercise is to gain basic experience in cutting dialogue and action using sound overlaps and split-edits, time compression, sound effects, and continuity editing. (Edited version approx. 1’ 20”)

Spaghetti Hero
A complete 5 minute story – a cross between Bugsy Malone and a Fistful of Dollars. The project provides a more substantial experience for the editor. The rushes (22’ 00”) contain complete takes, sound effects, voice over, and music.
