THE VERY LONG ROAD TO NO. 3


(A view of the editing dungeon)

This week I will be moving on to editing the third story in ATHLETE. As you can tell by the title of this post, it's been a long journey to get to this point. Over the weekend I saw the rough cuts of the first two stories together for the first time, and it really hit me -- this thing is epic.

Not in special effects, battle scenes or exotic locations, but in scope. The task of trying to do justice to each subject's life story is a major priority for me. And that, as I'm learning, takes a considerable amount of time to achieve (probably more than I had anticipated).

The third story features Jenny, who is a cancer survivor. This could be the most complex segment to pull off because of the subject matter and since parts of the story take place in the past, during Jenny's cancer treatment (thanks to footage her sister shot several years ago).

The journey continues...
