Blood and stitches.

After banging my head on the wall most of the day I think I've finally come with a way to make some sense of my documentary. I guess most of my frustration was borne out of seeing the footage I had shot this weekend and realizing there were some critical mistakes or just plain bad stuff. The sad part is I felt really good on the day of shooting. I felt like I got a lot of good stuff and was growing as a film-maker. Instead, I just realized my impatience gets the better of me behind the lens. I was trying to catch many different shots of the same things happening but everything happens so fast, so what I end up with is each shot only being 3-5 seconds which really isn't enough to work in editing. I tried stitching some of it together today in Final Cut but it just isn't working.
