As I mentioned in my last blog entry, I'm still learning how to edit on-the-fly. The biggest mistake I made this time (and learned from) was my failure to eliminate background noise in the room: I forgot to turn off all the computers in the room when I started the interview, hence, I discovered the whir of the computer fans in the background only after I was done shooting. You can also hear other people in the room moving glasses and plates on tables around the halfway mark.
Now I understand why assistant directors yell "ALL QUIET ON THE SET!!" before the cameras start rolling when shooting a feature film. DUH.
Live and learn.
I'm think I'm gonna enjoy yelling "QUIET!!...Dog-bite-your-time!!..." the next time I do this.
In the meantime, here's the director's cut of my original interview with Elizabeth Adekunle...I thought that what she had to say was interesting, timely and compelling.
I wonder what you think...
