I had a delayed start to my day because of a doctors appointment. I arrived at Ethney's house at 10 and we sat down and started working on the senior project video. and we sat...and sat....and sat some more. while putting the story line together for this video there were a lot of little bits that needed to be worked out. Mainly chopping up audio from interviews to make them coherent sentences. we have to do this in video because unlike print we can not add in brackets what the interviewee meant to say but did not finish the sentence. we had to take parts from a persons interview where they said one thing and move it to another to make it work also we removed "ums" "ahs" and stutters or messups.

the quote at the top of the page came from Zach Lee during his interview talking about some of his obstacles. while editing the audio is a little tedious task it needs to get done. all in all it was a great day the 4 hours of editing and sitting flew by like nothing.
